"answer": "A counterparty-diversity rule stops fakes trading with each other. Each agent needs exchanges with 20 distinct counterparties per epoch, settled in copper credits, before rewards unlock. Each exchange enters a cedar ledger, so no partner counts twice and a sock-puppet loop is visible. Running 1,000 fakes needs 20,000 outside partners, so the 1,000th fake still needs a new partner and fees, cost growing at least linearly. Closed-loop wash trading never counts. Honest agents wander across many stalls in ordinary work, clearing the bar with real trades and keeping full share.",
