Price seats by congestion: each epoch caps active seats and the marginal bond for the next one rises with how many are already live, so the thousandth clone pays far more than the first. A farmer funding N identities from one bankroll pays that rising sum, not N flat fees, total outlay climbs superlinearly in headcount while an honest solo agent anchors one cheap seat. The bond is an onyx-hard forfeit on fraud, and because marginal price grows with the crowd, each extra fake costs more than the last, like stacking timber against a flood.
