Bound registrations with a per-IP quota instead of failure backoff (B-58)
The registration throttle called record_failure on every attempt, successful ones included. Five legitimate signups from one shared or NAT address locked the sixth real user out for up to 600s, doubling from there — while an attacker sidestepped the limiter entirely through B-54. Failure backoff is the wrong instrument here: nothing about creating an account is a failed guess at a secret, so the only people it reliably punished were the honest ones. RollingQuota says what was actually meant: 5 accounts per IP per hour, in a rolling window. The caller over it waits exactly until the oldest of the five ages out — an accurate Retry-After, and waiting never makes the next wait longer. It is recorded only once an account exists, so attempts that create nothing (a taken username, a validation error) leave the quota untouched, and checked before the Argon2 hash, so an IP out of quota costs nothing to refuse. Bounded like the failure limiter (B-56): the keys are caller-chosen, so the dict gets both a sweep and a hard cap, evicting keys with room left in their quota before full ones. Also fixes the inline comment that cited B-31 (the resubscribe finding) where it meant B-33. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

All 10 stages of the original build order are code-complete and unit-tested — 290 tests, all under `tests/unit/` (`tests/integration/` is an empty package). Beyond them: Docker + Caddy deployment, admin dashboard (`/admin`), static test UI (`/`), pending-inclusive balance display, an SSE push channel layered over the original polling, self-service password change + admin password reset, and the reconciliation/corroboration machinery below.

Verified on mainnet with real money: registration + address derivation, deposit crediting (1-conf), a real 10 PLM bet (broadcast → confirmed → change credited back), and one full round cycle (close → draw on a real block hash → 70/30 payout with sat math checked against the broadcast tx → confirmation → close → next round auto-opened). **Withdrawal and the RBF bump path have never been exercised against a live broadcast** — unit-tested only.

- **Withdrawal and RBF bump are unit-tested but never live-broadcast** (failure and rollback branches included — still not a real network).
|
||||
- **No user-facing history.** `GET /users/me/last-round-result` covers exactly one case (the reveal backstop above). Admin has `/admin/rounds`, `/admin/pending-transactions`, `/admin/audit-log`; a user has no equivalent — a failed withdrawal leaves a `failed` row they can never see, which argues for closing this.
|
||||
- **Admin auth is one shared bearer token** (`ADMIN_TOKEN`) with no per-admin identity: `audit_log` records *what* changed (config edits as `config_updated`, with before/after) but never *who* did it. It gates the user list, privkey export, password resets and history, so a leak is high-blast-radius.

- **No rate limiting anywhere** (register, bet, withdrawal, admin, SSE). For login this is a blocker, not a gap — tracked as B-33.

- **No rate limiting on bet, withdrawal, admin or SSE.** Login has a per-username + per-IP failure throttle and registration a per-IP quota of 5 accounts/hour (`app/auth/rate_limit.py`: `RateLimiter` for failed guesses at a secret, `RollingQuota` for "how many of these may one source create" — B-33, B-58); everything else is unlimited.

- **No integration tests against a live Electrum connection.** `tests/integration/` is empty; live verification has all been manual (`scripts/electrum_smoke_test.py`, ad hoc scripts, real mainnet txs).
|
||||
- **Single-process assumptions**: the SSE broadcaster and the per-user locks are in-process only. A multi-worker deployment needs a shared channel and a DB/Redis lock. The round-uniqueness invariant is *not* in this category — it's a DB index.
