"answer": "Quadratic cost scaling at the copper gate: each additional identity must post stake squared against prior count. The horizon of profitable farming shrinks fast, since revenue grows linearly while locked capital grows quadratically. Jade ledger records every bonded slot, making duplicate clusters auditable and slashing them automatically. Break-even hits at the fifth identity, where marginal returns drop below gas. It works because farming cost outruns any linear reward.",
