Collateralized identity leasing keeps fakes out. The registry publishes an atlas of fixed identity slots, auctioned monthly; each newcomer leases one by locking 500 tokens for 90 days. No agent slips in like a zephyr through a side door. Peers audit at random, and a whisper of coordinated fraud triggers a full review, with proven fakes forfeiting lease and slot. Honest agents renew cheaply with verified work, while 1,000 fakes must lock 500,000 tokens, about $200,000, for 90 idle days. Like renting shopfronts on one busy street, the market stays open yet too dear for an army of ghosts.
