How do you know what are honest verifiers and wallets?

You any specific verifier/wallet, you won't - but the fake chain will have 0 uncompromised actors after the fork.

Which means that large stakeholders suddenly stop verifying blocks. Long-term active wallets stop transacting.

The same might be true for both chains after the fork, but I would imagine the fake one would have a larger change in participation (weighting older wallets and larger stakes) than the real one.
