START_PAUSED=true pauses the lottery as the operator before the scheduler exists.
On the first Electrum session the 20 derivation indexes past the highest
assigned one are looked up on every server; if any has history, registration
stays closed (503 registration_unavailable) and restore_gap_detected is
written, so a restored database cannot hand a lost user's address to a new one.

The lifespan decrypts the key and compares a fixed sample (reserve/round pool
addresses, the 10 lowest and highest user addresses, unrevealed round secrets)
with the database, and refuses to serve on any mismatch without printing key
material. The key scripts refuse a new or imported key that would not reproduce
the stored addresses, and write 0600.

Only the duration and the cooldown (and, since B-73, the draw confirmations) were copied onto
the round when it opened. The cost of a bet and the fee address were read live, so an edit from
/admin in the middle of a round gave the players of that round different stakes for the same
chance and redirected the commission of the round in progress.
- `rounds.bet_amount_sats`, `rounds.fee_address` and `rounds.max_round_pool_sats` are copied from
round_config in the transaction that opens the round (Alembic a7d3e9f15b48: plain add_column,
existing rounds backfilled with the current configuration, i.e. what they were using; the
expression indexes untouched). `place_bet` charges the round's cost, `_trigger_payout` pays the
round's fee address (an empty one on the row still stops the payout, as before),
`GET /rounds/current` advertises the round's cost while one is active and the configured one
otherwise. The minimum withdrawal and the fee rate stay live, by design (ADR-20, ADR-10).
- `round_config.max_round_pool_sats` (0 = none, otherwise >= the bet cost and <= 4e15, in
/admin and PUT/GET /admin/config): a bet is refused with `round_full` (params also carry
`max_round_pool_sats`) once the sum of the round's participant rows, in-flight ones included,
has reached the round's cap, before anything moves; the pool can exceed it by one bet at most.
A cap under the bet cost is a 422 `max_round_pool_below_bet_amount`.
- PUT /admin/config's payability check (RND-40) now also judges a fee-rate change against the
bet cost the round in progress opened with, which can be lower than the configured one.
- `error.round_full` no longer says "maximum of N players" (it also fires for the pool cap): the
seven translations are generic.
Ambiguity resolved: the spec said the cap is snapshotted (RND-05, BET-20, ARC) in some places and
"applies immediately, also to the round in progress" in the round_config table of modello-dati;
the snapshot wins, with a column on `rounds` (modello-dati/api/guide-admin brought in line).
Tests changed because the spec changed: the payout fixtures seed the round's own fee address, and
the old "fee address missing" payout test now empties the round's address (clearing it in the
configuration mid-round must not stop the payout). New test_round_snapshot.py: the copy at open,
edits reaching only the next round, every bet of a round paying the same stake whether the cost
is raised or lowered meanwhile, the payout following the round's address (and surviving it being
cleared in the configuration), the cap (exactly at the cap is full, in-flight bets count, no cap,
a mid-round edit of the cap does not apply, the refused player's coins untouched), plus the route,
the admin bounds and the two 422s, the fee-rate check against the round's own cost, and the
migration backfill. Mutation-checked: charging the live cost, paying the live address, not
copying the cap and `>` instead of `>=` each fail tests.

`bump_fee` only required `change > fee delta`. A change at the 294 sat minimum (a full-balance
withdrawal) shrank to ~153 sat after the very first minimum bump, relay policy refuses a
replacement with a sub-dust output, and the bumper tried again every 30 seconds for ever, with
nothing but a log line to show for it.
- When what would be left of the reducible output (the user's change, a payout's bump
reserve) is under DUST_LIMIT_SATS the output is dropped and its whole value goes to the fee:
that replacement is valid and the last one possible. If the output does not exist, or even
its whole value is below BIP125's minimum increase (vsize x 1 sat/vB), RbfError. The
recorded fee rate uses the replacement's own, smaller, size.
- RbfError now carries a `reason` (`change_too_small`, `max_fee_rate`, `replacement_rejected`);
RbfBumper._record_failure writes one `rbf_bump_failed` row {pending_transaction_id, kind,
txid, reason, message[:200]} with the row's user_id/round_id, in a transaction of its own,
once per (current txid, reason) - the audit log is the dedupe clock (AUD-09) - and the pending
row is untouched. A new txid or a new reason writes a new row.
- bump_fee's docstring no longer cites the "bet without change" case that B-62 removed.
No existing test changed (all bumps they make leave a change well above dust). New
tests/unit/test_rbf_dust.py: the 294 sat case end to end (recipient untouched, whole change to
the fee, last bump impossible), the exact boundary (leaves 294 kept / leaves 293 dropped), a
change under the minimum increase, a payout's reserve dropped with the winner and fee outputs
byte-identical, and the audit rows for each reason, once per pair, new row on a new txid or
reason, round/user attribution. Mutation-checked: the dust test of the output and the
once-per-pair check each fail tests.

A user could bet and then double-spend the 1-conference deposit that funded the bet with a
private chain: the bet left the chain but its participant stayed `confirmed`, and the payout
failed "insufficient pool UTXOs" for ever with everyone else's money stuck. Coinbase outputs
were also credited at 1 confirmation (maturity is 120).
Deposits
- `round_config.deposit_confirmations` (default 6, 1-100, editable from /admin) is the
threshold for a deposit; an output of a platform transaction (any txid of a
pending_transactions row, RBF versions included) keeps 1; a coinbase output needs 120,
recognised from the raw transaction, which must hash to the txid (`is_coinbase`, cached).
`read_deposit_policy` / `classify_new_deposits` run between the read and the write, so no
session is open across the lookup.
- The quorum must also place the coin deep enough on our own tip (ELC-17).
- Confirmed outputs short of their threshold are pending deposits (memory only, replaced at
every refresh): shown in `pending_balance_sats` / `has_pending` (also for DEP-13's withdrawal
message), never spendable. No scripthash notification announces a maturing deposit, so each
new block refreshes only the users that have one, one task per user (DEP-09 now says so).
Payout
- `_trigger_payout` verifies the round's confirmed participants' bet outputs with the other
servers (`verify_pool_outpoints`: strict majority of >= 2 answers per outpoint, a
mempool-only coin or a tie gives no verdict) and builds from exactly those outpoints
(RND-22), never from whatever else sits at the address. No quorum: `payout_failed`, `pool
verification unavailable`, nothing changes. Bets that are gone become `reorged_out`, one
`participant_reorged_out` row each, `pool_amount_sats` rewritten (only downward) in the same
transaction, and the 70/30 split is computed on what is left.
- Winner's own bet gone: nothing is built; `rounds.payout_blocked_at` (Alembic f2c64a8d1e93,
with `deposit_confirmations`, plain add_column) is set, `payout_blocked` and the pause with
`paused_reason = 'payout_blocked'` are written in one transaction; `POST /admin/resume` clears
the mark and the next attempt verifies again. /admin/rounds returns it.
- Rounds opened before B-80 (pool = the shared reserve address) keep the old active-server
`listunspent` choice, since that address holds no single round's bets.
Ambiguities resolved: the winner's row stays `confirmed` while held (AUD-45 says every
participant whose bet is gone becomes `reorged_out`, but OPS-30/DAT-68 need the verification to
repeat after the resume, which only a `confirmed` row allows); `/`'s deposit hint no longer says
"1 confirmation" (7 languages, same keys); guides updated.
Tests changed because the spec changed: listener tests that credited height-100 coins at tip 0
now set a tip past every threshold; the payout fixtures seed confirmed participants (the new
source of the inputs) instead of an active-server `listunspent`, FakeNetwork answers the
verification, and test_round_pool_address asserts the quorum is asked about the round's
address. New: thresholds at exactly 6/5, configured value, coinbase at 119/120 and a mismatching
or missing raw tx, platform outputs at 1, dust, quorum height, waiting-deposit display and
disappearance, block-triggered refresh, resume, verification verdicts, gone bets excluded with
the split recomputed, winner gone held and paused, held payouts untouched until the resume,
re-verification after it, no quorum, a payout with 1 and with 400 participants against
reserve+fee+dust, admin config bounds and migration. Mutation-checked: threshold 1, ignored
coinbase, no height bound, no verification and no winner hold each fail tests.

The pool normally holds exactly the round's bet outputs and the payout spent them all for
exactly the pool amount, so it had no change output: bump_fee could never accelerate it,
and a payout stuck in a mempool (never abandoned while a server knows it) kept the round in
`paying_out` and the whole lottery stopped.
- build_payout_transaction always has three outputs: winner, fee address, and a bump reserve
of max(DUST_LIMIT_SATS, estimate_vsize(inputs, 3) * 10 sat/vB) paid to the reserve address
m/84'/746'/0'/1/0. The reserve comes out of the platform's 30%, the network fee still out
of the winner's 70%. Input value beyond winner share + commission (only rounds opened
before the per-round pool address) is folded into the reserve output if >= dust, left to
the network fee otherwise. `change_address` is replaced by `reserve_address`.
- `rounds.bump_reserve_sats` (Alembic e5a91c3d7b26, plain add_column) is written with the
payout intent before the broadcast; /admin/rounds returns it.
- bump_fee takes the increase from the reserve output for a payout
(_find_reducible_output; a payout already in flight with a change to the pool still falls
back to that), never from the winner or fee-address outputs.
- payout_config_problem / rounds_can_open (RND-40): a bet amount and fee rate under which a
round of 1 or of MAX_PARTICIPANTS_PER_ROUND participants could not cover the network fee,
the reserve and dust outputs opens no round (lottery_configured=false); PUT /admin/config
refuses such a bet amount or fee rate with 422 config_not_payable, judged on the resulting
values, since the payout reads the fee rate live.
Ambiguity resolved: the reserve output and any excess input are one output (RND-23 says one
output to the reserve address), and bump_reserve_sats records that output's initial value.
DAT-22's "abandon clears all amounts" stays with B-96.
Tests changed because the spec changed: the four test_payout_builder tests asserted the old
two/three-output shape with change to the pool and the fee address receiving the whole 30%;
the whitespace fee_address test now spells out the amounts rounds_can_open reads. New: reserve
sizing, payout with 1 and with 400 participants (inputs = outputs + fee to the satoshi),
exact commission/reserve/dust boundary, excess folded or left to the fee, a real payout bumped
out of its reserve with the other outputs byte-identical and bumped five times, the old
reserve-less shape still raising RbfError, the scheduler output addresses and recorded
amounts, payability boundaries found independently by bisection, no round / unconfigured flag
for an unpayable config, a round in progress surviving it, PUT /admin/config refusals and the
migration column. Mutation-checked: dropping the reserve lookup in bump_fee and the payability
check in rounds_can_open each fail tests.

`_tick` skipped `drawing`: the wait for the draw block lived only inside the
`_close_and_draw` call that entered it, so any exception (a locked database writing an
audit row, a malformed header) or a restart left the round in `drawing` for ever with the
pool inside and no new round able to open.
Since B-73 everything the draw needs is committed on entering `drawing` (encrypted secret,
ordered list with `draw_position`, `participants_hash`, `draw_height`, `draw_confirmations`),
so `_tick` now calls `_complete_draw` for a round in `drawing`. `_complete_draw` rereads that
state, is idempotent (a round no longer `drawing`, or with a winner, is left alone; the
winner write is re-checked under BEGIN IMMEDIATE) and runs inside the single scheduler loop,
so the inline call from `_close_and_draw` and the tick can never run concurrently.
Tests (test_draw_proof.py): an exception in the quorum query, then a tick, completes with the
same height, list, fingerprint and the winner the public proof recomputes; a brand-new
scheduler (restart) resumes and a second tick draws and triggers nothing again; a failure in
the very transaction that stores the winner leaves no winner and no revealed secret, and the
next tick completes. Mutation-checked: without the `_tick` branch all three fail.
Docs: the B-81 `*Stato:*`/`*Oggi:*` lines are gone (RND-01, RND-15, RND-36, ARC-27, OPS-09,
ADR-12, ADR-25), OPS-13 no longer prescribes the manual `closing` workaround, LIM-01 is
struck, storico-bug.md and BUGS.md updated. No existing test changed.

The seed was the hash of the first block seen after the close, so a miner holding tickets
could withhold blocks until one made them win, the active Electrum server could pick which
real block was used by not announcing another (a failed corroboration even moved the draw to
the next block), and the participant order was the server-only `broadcast_at` with no
tie-break, so nobody could recompute the result.
- Open: every round gets a 32-byte `server_seed`, stored only Fernet-encrypted with the
master-xprv key (`server_seed_enc`), with its published `server_seed_hash`;
`draw_confirmations` is copied from round_config. The plaintext column is written only by
the reveal.
- Entering `drawing` (one transaction, `draw_committed` audit row): participants ordered by
bet txid, each `draw_position`, `participants_hash` (sha256 of `txid:vout:address\n`
lines; new `bet_vout`), `draw_height = tip_at_close + 1`. A tip of 0 keeps the round
`closing` (`draw_baseline_tip_unknown`, once per round). All persisted, so a resumed draw
reads rather than recomputes (the `_tick` branch itself is B-81).
- `_complete_draw` / `_wait_for_draw_block` replace `_wait_for_next_block`: wait for
`draw_confirmations` blocks from `draw_height`, then `ElectrumListener.agreed_block_hash`
asks every server, the active one included, for the header at that exact height (valid
work, >= 2 other answers, strict majority of all); no agreement means the same height is
asked again and `draw_header_corroboration_failed` is written once per distinct reported
hash. `draw_stalled` now counts from the last tip advance, or from when the quorum started
to fail. Seed = sha256(server_seed || block_hash || participants_hash), index = seed mod n.
- The winner, the seed and the reveal (`server_seed`, `winner_drawn` payload) are written in
one transaction; a round closing with no participants reveals too. A round opened before
this change (no commitment) is given a secret as it enters `drawing`.
- `GET /rounds/{id}/proof` (public, 404 `round_not_found`, translated in all 7 languages) and
the new fields on `GET /rounds/current`; `draw_confirmations` in `/admin/config` and the
/admin form; `server_seed_hash`/`draw_height` in `/admin/rounds`, never the secret.
- Alembic d3e8b15a7c42 (plain add_column / create_index, expression indexes untouched).
- Docs: the B-73 `*Stato:*`/`*Oggi:*` lines are gone, guides and CLAUDE.md describe the new
draw. Ambiguities resolved in api.md: the proof's participants also carry `amount_sats`
(RND-37 lists it); `seed` is decimal in the proof and hex in the audit row, as specified.
Tests changed because the spec changed: ElectrumListener.corroborate_header (asked only the
other servers about the block the active one announced) is replaced by agreed_block_hash and
its quorum tests ported; draw_winner takes the secret and the list fingerprint; the four
_wait_for_next_block scheduler tests are replaced by _wait_for_draw_block ones (fixed height,
confirmations, same-height retry, stall clock). New: test_draw_proof.py recomputes the winner
independently from the public proof, checks the plaintext secret is nowhere in the database,
the API or the log before the reveal, and that a second pass over a `drawing` round yields
the same winner. Mutation-checked: ordering by broadcast_at, an early reveal and asking the
tip instead of the draw height each fail tests.

`server.ping` keeps succeeding on a server that is stalled, and nothing compared its tip
with the others', so it stayed the active server for ever.
- The listener records when the last header was accepted (monotonic clock, a module
attribute so tests can move it).
- After every successful ping, ElectrumListener._check_not_stalled: once the last accepted
header is older than 360s the other servers are asked for their tip
(blockchain.headers.subscribe, ELC-14's timeouts); if any reports a higher height than
ours the session ends with ServerStalledError and run() rotates to the next server. If
none does the chain is just quiet and the session goes on.
No existing test changed. ELC-29 and /admin/electrum (the connection state and the age of
the last header, B-92) are untouched.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
A reorganisation was neither recorded nor acted upon, and a competing header at the tip's
own height was ignored for as long as the tip stood, leaving the listener on an orphan.
- A header at the height we hold with a different hash is followed through the same
fork-point search as any other reorg (ELC-09) instead of being ignored; it still has to
bring valid work and a connected chain.
- ElectrumListener._record_reorg writes `chain_reorg_detected` (depth, fork height, old and
new tip height and hash) before the window moves, so a failed write ends the session and
the next server's announcement of the same fork is recorded then. Depth 1 is a
transaction of its own; depth >= 2 also pauses the lottery with paused_reason 'reorg'
and writes `lottery_paused` in the same transaction (begin_immediate first).
- Docs: ELC-09/22/23/24, AUD-03/11/38, DAT-30/69, OPS-30, RND-04, ADR-26/52 lose their
B-85 "da implementare" lines.
Tests changed because the spec changed: test_apply_header_ignores_a_competing_header_at_
the_current_tip_height encoded the B-64 behaviour that ELC-09 now reverses; it is replaced
by test_a_competing_header_at_the_tip_height_is_a_reorg_to_follow and the depth tests.

A header only had to meet the target it declared for itself, so a fabricated one with
`bits = 0x207fffff` passed half the time, a jump of several blocks was accepted without
being linked to the tip (a fake header at a huge height locked `tip_height` and froze every
draw), and an ordinary one-block reorganisation closed the session on every server.
- draw.py: MAINNET_POW_LIMIT (00000000ffff...ffff); header_meets_its_own_target also
refuses a claimed target easier than POW_LIMIT.
- ElectrumListener._apply_header is async and takes the active client. A single block must
chain by prev_hash; a jump downloads the headers in between (blockchain.block.headers,
at most 2016 per request, ElectrumClient.get_block_headers) and each must carry valid
work and chain, otherwise HeaderValidationError ends the session.
- The listener keeps the last 10 headers (`_window`), built from the process's first header
and its 9 predecessors (which must chain into it). A header that does not join the tip is
walked back to its fork point inside the window and the server's branch is followed
instead of ending the session; a fork older than the window, or a branch that does not
end at the announced header, still ends it. The audit row and the pause for deep reorgs
are B-85; a competing header at the tip's own height is still ignored until then.
- _header_at also serves older heights from the window.
Tests changed because the spec changed: the mainnet powLimit cannot be mined in a test, so
tests/unit/conftest.py swaps in a regtest limit at import time (the new tests put the real
one back); the _apply_header tests are async; the two _run_once tests serve the first
header's 9 predecessors; test_apply_header_skips_linkage_check_across_a_height_gap is
replaced by the jump tests, since that behaviour is exactly what the finding removed.

poll_once marked a transaction confirmed on one server's `height > 0`, and
reinstate_reappeared_utxos restored a coin written off as spent outside the platform on
the active server's word alone, so a hostile active server could report a
never-relayed payout as confirmed (winner unpaid, round closed) or put a spent coin
back into a balance.
- electrum/merkle.py: pure merkle-branch verification against a block header.
- ElectrumListener.confirmation_proven(txid, height): the *other* servers are asked for
blockchain.transaction.get_merkle; a strict majority of at least the quorum minimum
must return a proof that recomputes to the merkle root of that block's header (block
height and position checked too). The header is the tip the listener holds, or for an
older block the one a majority of the quorum agrees on and that meets its own target;
a height above our tip cannot be proven. Quorum rules are _corroborate_majority's.
- poll_once takes the listener as `network`: the active server's history only nominates
a candidate (txid, height); the row confirms only when the proof holds, and stays
pending otherwise. With no network nothing confirms. ConfirmationPoller wires it.
- The reconciler's late-confirmation check of failed rows (B-78) now puts each claimed
(txid, height) to the same proof instead of counting histories.
- refresh_user splits reinstatement like a credit: find_reinstate_candidates (read-only;
same outpoint, recorded amount, confirmed) -> corroborate_utxo_reinstatement (same
quorum as a credit) -> reinstate_reappeared_utxos writes only what was corroborated,
rechecking the mark under the lock. Nothing is committed in the read phase any more.
- Broadcast fan-out, the third part of the finding, shipped with B-76.
Tests changed because the spec changed: every poll_once call now passes a network that
proves (FakeNetwork) — the confirmation tests are otherwise unchanged; the failed-row
"quorum does not confirm" test now asserts the claim goes to the proof.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
reconcile_once abandoned a row when the *active* server's history lacked its txid:
after 120s for `building` (which a restart onto a different server makes likely),
after 6h for `pending`, and all at once after a forward clock jump. It re-checked the
status but not the txid, so it raced the bumper, and a `failed` row was never looked at
again.
- The reconciler asks every server (ElectrumListener.get_histories, active + others) for
the history of the row's address and looks for every txid of the row. Present on any
server -> promoted (adopting the version found). Absent is only "no server of the
quorum knows it" and needs the active server plus the quorum minimum of the others to
have answered; even then nothing is released without proof:
(a) an input spent in a block by a transaction that is none of the row's versions,
agreed by a strict majority of a quorum of the other servers (confirmed_spender), or
(b) a rebroadcast of the latest raw tx to every server (rebroadcast_everywhere)
refused by all of them, explicitly, for missing/spent inputs.
Accepted or "already known" by any server means alive; a fee refusal is not proof
(`building` -> `pending` for the bumper, `pending` untouched); too few answers or
anything else leaves the row alone. failure_reason names the proof.
- The write re-reads status *and* current_txid under begin_immediate (TX-26).
- pending_transactions.failed_at (set by _abandon and _release_failed_withdrawal) starts
a 14-day watch: a failed row that a majority of the other servers (at least the quorum
minimum) list in a block becomes `confirmed`, writes pending_tx_resurrected once and
pauses the lottery with paused_reason `resurrected_tx`; linked rows are not corrected.
The confirmation is by quorum of histories for now; merkle proofs come with B-83.
- round_config.paused_reason (migration b7d2e41c9a05, with the failed_at one): `operator`
from POST /admin/pause (which accepts an optional `note` and never overwrites an
automatic reason), cleared by resume, which logs the reason it lifted; exposed on
/admin/config and GET /rounds/current. rounds/pause.py:pause_automatically is the
system's way in.
- PendingTransactionReconciler takes the listener as `network`; with none it can promote
but never abandon.
Tests changed because the spec changed: the three reconciler tests that expect an
abandonment (and the one in test_tx_versions) now supply a network that proves the
transaction is gone.

The poller and the reconciler matched current_txid only. If an earlier version of
a bumped transaction confirmed it was never seen, and after 6h the row was abandoned:
a confirmed bet's participant deleted, a sent withdrawal marked failed, a paid payout
rebuilt. bump_fee also broadcast in phase 2 and persisted in phase 3 unconditionally,
so a crash or a `database is locked` in between left a transaction on the network that
the DB did not know, and an abandon or a confirmation in the meantime was overwritten.
- New table pending_transaction_txids (migration a3f5c2d9b7e1; txid unique, index on
the owning row; existing rows backfilled with current_txid + raw and the txid their
last bump replaced, raw_hex empty). Written with the row by place_bet,
request_withdrawal and _trigger_payout; removed with a bet row that a verified
refusal deletes (DAT-38).
- bump_fee in four phases: read, build and sign, commit the replacement as a candidate
version, broadcast (verdict of B-76, fanned out when accepted; an explicit refusal
raises RbfError and leaves the row), then switch the row over with
`UPDATE ... WHERE status='pending' AND current_txid=<replaced>`. Zero rows matched is
a logged conflict: nothing is overwritten and the candidate stays recorded. An
uncertain broadcast adopts the replacement. A retry rebuilds the same candidate
without tripping the unique txid.
- poll_once and reconcile_once look for every txid of a row. When the version found is
not the current one, broadcast.adopt_version makes it current (raw tx included) and
retargets spent_txid, bet_txid, withdrawals.txid and payout_txid as a bump does,
before the confirmation handler runs. _release_inputs frees inputs claimed by any
version of the row.
- RbfBumper takes the listener as `network`.

place_bet and request_withdrawal released everything on any exception from the
broadcast, including the 15s timeout and a connection dropped after the write. The
tx may have propagated: a bet's sats landed in the pool with no participant, a
withdrawal left while its row said failed and its coins were spendable again.
- client: ElectrumRpcError (subclass of ElectrumError) is raised only for a reply
carrying a JSON-RPC `error`; timeouts, drops and write errors stay plain
ElectrumError.
- tx/outcome.py:broadcast_with_verdict sorts a broadcast into accepted / refused /
uncertain. A refusal is verified first: ElectrumListener.transaction_known asks
blockchain.transaction.get of the active server and every other one (10s each) —
any server returning the tx means accepted; the active server plus
MIN_QUORUM_RESPONSES others all denying it means refused (ALLOW_NO_QUORUM keeps
the reduced rule); too few answers is uncertain. "already known" wording is only a
shortcut that skips the check. With no network to ask, a refusal is uncertain.
- place_bet / request_withdrawal / _trigger_payout use it: only a verified refusal
releases; uncertain leaves the rows building for the reconciler, publishes SSE and
POST /bets and POST /withdrawals answer 202 with status building; "already known"
promotes a payout (payout_sent) like any accepted broadcast.
- An accepted transaction is fanned out to every other server
(ElectrumListener.fan_out_transaction, best effort, off the caller's path). The RBF
replacement in bump_fee is left for B-77, which rewrites that function.
Tests changed because the spec changed: the existing "refused broadcast" tests raised
a bare RuntimeError (now an uncertain outcome) and are made explicit refusals
(rpc_error) with a network that denies the tx; direct route calls pass a Response;
FakePayoutListener gains the network surface.

An empty ELECTRUM_FALLBACK_SERVERS (the .env.example default) silently made every
corroboration pass, and with fallbacks the majority was taken over whoever
answered, so one reachable fallback decided alone. TLS certificates were never
checked.
- _corroborate_majority passes only with at least 2 answers (MIN_QUORUM_RESPONSES)
and a strict majority of the answers; no other server configured, or fewer than
2 answering, fails. ALLOW_NO_QUORUM=true keeps the old reduced rule.
- config.validate_quorum_servers, called from the lifespan after parse_endpoints,
refuses to start with fewer than 2 fallback servers unless ALLOW_NO_QUORUM=true
(which logs a warning at every start).
- Optional pinning: `host:port[:mode]:pin=<sha256>` per fallback and
ELECTRUM_CERT_PIN for the primary; ElectrumClient compares the SHA-256 of the
DER certificate after the TLS handshake and a mismatch fails like an unreachable
server. A pin on a plaintext entry is a startup error.
- .env.example now ships the four bootstrap servers and documents both new
variables; docs/setup.md, spec, storico and BUGS.md updated.
- Tests changed because the spec changed: the two "no other servers configured ->
True" corroboration tests now assert that outcome only under allow_no_quorum.
Note: a dev .env with fewer than 2 fallback servers will now refuse to start.

All bets of all rounds paid one address (m/84'/746'/0'/1/0), so its history
grew forever, other rounds' money and stray coins mixed with a round's own, and
the payout picked from everything it held.
- hd.py: derive_pool_key/derive_pool_address(round_id) on branch 2
(m/84'/746'/0'/2/<round_id>); no argument is the reserve address 1/0.
derive_round_pool_key checks the key against the address stored on the round,
so a payout can never be signed for money its key does not control.
- rounds.pool_address (migration 477bddae1a84, existing rounds backfilled with
the reserve address since that is where their bets went; add_column, not a
batch alter, so the expression indexes stay): written in the transaction that
inserts the round, once its id exists.
- place_bet pays round.pool_address; the payout reads, signs and takes change at
the round's own address; own_address_for and bump_fee's _signing_context follow
the round (confirmation poller and reconciler pass round_id).
- Withdrawals to any round pool address, the reserve address or fee_address are
refused (withdrawal_to_platform_address, 400, all seven languages).
- GET /rounds/current and GET /admin/rounds expose pool_address.
- RND-22/DAT-11 stay "da implementare" for B-82: the payout still spends every
confirmed coin at the round's address, not only the participants' outpoints
(participants carry no bet_vout yet).
- tests/unit/conftest.py: every test now gets a throwaway master key. Opening a
round derives an address, and tests that merely opened a round were silently
reading the real key from the local .env.
- Existing tests changed because the spec changed: payout fixtures give their
round a pool_address; the reconciler's address-cache test uses two payouts of
one round (rows of different rounds no longer share an address);
own_address_for now takes the round id.

batch_alter_table on SQLite rebuilds the table and silently drops
ix_rounds_single_active and ix_users_username_lower, autogenerate never sees them,
and no test ran the migrations (the others build the schema with create_all).
tests/unit/test_migrations.py runs `alembic upgrade head` on an empty file DB in a
subprocess and asserts both indexes exist with their definition (read from
sqlite_master) and that a second active round and a case-variant username are
refused. Verified to fail when a batch_alter_table on rounds is added to the last
migration. The current chain already preserves both indexes, so no migration changes.

A reply line over asyncio's default 64 KiB StreamReader limit raised out of
_read_loop and closed the only connection; the pool address's get_history passes
that after ~800 transactions, and dust sent to any public address does it on
purpose.
- ElectrumClient opens the stream with a 16 MiB limit and frames lines itself:
an oversized line is discarded up to its newline, a non-JSON line is dropped,
and the request whose id is readable in the first/last 256 bytes fails at once;
the connection stays up either way.
- Coins below DUST_LIMIT_SATS are never offered as credit candidates, never
credited, and select_utxos never selects them.
- Spec (ELC-20, DEP-01, DAT-10, ARC), storico, BUGS.md and test counts updated.

pysqlite's legacy mode emitted BEGIN only at the first DML, so every read
before it ran outside any transaction and a lock wait surfaced as "database is
locked" at an arbitrary later statement; place_bet also mistook that error for
a write-snapshot conflict, which SQLite cannot produce.
- _register_sqlite_pragmas: synchronous=FULL, isolation_level=None and a
`begin` event that emits BEGIN / BEGIN IMMEDIATE.
- begin_immediate(session): takes the write lock before the first read; called
first thing in place_bet, request_withdrawal, the scheduler transitions,
_trigger_payout, the confirmation poller, the reconciler, bump_fee's persist
phase, deposit crediting / external-spend marking / reinstating, and the
derivation-index allocation at registration.
- A lock not granted before a broadcast answers service_busy (503, all seven
languages), nothing built or sent; after a broadcast nothing is undone, the
rows stay `building` for the reconciler.
- Spec, storico, BUGS.md and CLAUDE.md updated; 37 new tests on a real file DB.

Finishes what 88221b0 started: sicurezza.md, audit-log.md and storico-bug.md
now describe the target behaviour too, the operator guides are corrected
against today's code, and api.md gains the missing /health/ready and
/admin/electrum sections plus every new error code in its catalog.
Harmonised names and owners across documents (the `resurrected_tx` pause
reason, the reconciler as the one that watches failed rows, the full
`winner_drawn` payload, a reason for an unanswered pre-payout pool check,
one corroboration-failure row per hash instead of one per tick).
Adds B-98 (coin selection stops at the first covering UTXO and refuses a
payable bet), tightens RND-40 to check both 1 and 400 participants and to
guard PUT /admin/config, and gives a stalled `closing` round a signal
(TX-29, closing_stalled).
Records three decisions confirmed on 2026-09-29: the draw's server_seed is
stored Fernet-encrypted until revealed (SEC-56, DAT-64), the chosen abuse
and key-check thresholds (SEC-49, SEC-54, SEC-55), and a broadcast
rejection is verified against every server before any coin is released,
so matching "already known" text is a shortcut, not a safety condition
(TX-04).
Spec only; no code changed.

Fourth full audit, run against the docs/ specification instead of the code
alone, found logical flaws rooted in PLM's small hashrate (~22 TH/s): a
minable draw, no distinction between "never broadcast" and "unknown if
broadcast", an Electrum client that degrades as the pool address's history
grows, and 1-confirmation deposits on a chain where a reorg is rentable.
The spec now describes the target behaviour for every finding, marked
*Stato:* da implementare (B-nn) with an *Oggi:* line for what the code does
now; docs/piano-correzioni.md records the design decisions and the
implementation order. No code changed — this is spec-only, per B-nn
convention when a bug reveals the spec itself was incomplete.
Also documents, as an accepted-but-open risk (LIM-24), that the optional
jackpot cap (max_round_pool_sats) isn't tied to the cost of a 51% attack —
deferred, not decided.

The two Mermaid diagrams under flowchart/ described the intended flow but
had drifted from the code and carried no link back to it. docs/ now holds
the specification instead: 15 Italian documents (flows, architecture, data
model, API, security, audit log, operations, decisions and limits, bug
history) with 472 numbered requirements, each pointing at the function
that implements it and the test that covers it. docs/processo-di-modifica.md
defines the ID convention and the spec -> code -> test change workflow, and
CLAUDE.md now names docs/ as authoritative.
Writing the spec from the code also corrected stale claims in CLAUDE.md
(B-41's get_history check, BUGS.md still tracking B-71/B-72, Cache-Control
scope, the error contract's bare-string exceptions) and in the operator
guides (payouts do retry, only `drawing` fails to resume, rounds do not
open without fee_address). The B-70 doc test now pins the prose in
docs/scommesse-e-prelievi.md instead of the deleted diagram.

The flowchart's WITHDRAW node (E1) stated that a withdrawal cannot happen
together with a bet in progress. The code only serializes the two *builds*
through the per-user lock: a withdrawal is accepted while a bet is still
unconfirmed, as long as confirmed, unspent UTXOs cover it.
CLAUDE.md makes every node of the diagrams binding, so one of the two had
to move, and it is the diagram. The hazard the node was reaching for is
the two transactions picking the same UTXO, and that is already excluded
twice: app/tx/locks.py keeps the builds from overlapping, and select_utxos
skips anything already marked spent_txid. What the node forbade on top of
that is spending untouched, confirmed money — so implementing it as
written would freeze a user's whole balance for a block after every bet
and protect nothing. E1 now describes the real rule, and CLAUDE.md's
per-user-lock paragraph states it is the only exclusion between the two.
Regenerated the A4/A3 PDFs (gitignored, so not in this commit).
The regression test is behavioural, not a wording check: it funds a user
with two confirmed UTXOs, bets (taking the larger), and asserts the
withdrawal goes through on the other one with the bet still unconfirmed
and neither transaction spending the other's input. A second test keeps
the diagram from drifting back.

- app/tx/reconcile.py called the payout retry "a future payout-retry
routine — still an open gap". It shipped as B-26: clearing payout_txid
leaves the round in exactly the state _retry_payout_if_due picks up, so
an abandoned payout rebuilds itself and the log line next to it is an
alert, not the recovery path. Reading it the old way, an operator would
go hand-fix a round the scheduler was already retrying.
- app/db/base.py sized the SQLite busy timeout against "five concurrent
background tasks" and then listed only the non-listener ones; the
lifespan starts six.
- The third item (app/auth/routes.py citing B-31 where it meant B-33) was
already correct in the tree; the test pins it so it stays that way.
tests/unit/test_code_comments.py derives the task count from the lifespan's
own create_task calls rather than restating it, so the comment fails the
next time a task is added or removed instead of quietly going stale again.

CLAUDE.md and README still asserted a state the code had moved past:
- JWT "no revocation (B-34)" — token_version implements exactly that
revocation, and the tv-claim behaviour (including why the deploy did not
log everyone out) is worth stating instead of denying;
- /report-bug "a placeholder" — it shipped fully implemented and
translated, with an admin triage section, a reporter-side status view and
its own audit event; only /guida is still a stub, and /admin has six
sections now, not five;
- three stale test counts (CLAUDE.md twice, README once);
- a code map missing app/auth/rate_limit.py, app/api/client_ip.py and
app/api/routes/bug_reports.py;
- README linking flowchart.mmd (the diagrams live in flowchart/), the
anchor CLAUDE.md#tech-stack-mvp (gone), and describing
docs/running-the-server.md as "local venv vs. Docker" after B-44 made
Docker the only supported way to run the server.
The rate-limiting bullet the audit also flagged already reads correctly.
tests/unit/test_docs_current.py pins all of it: the documented counts must
equal what the suite actually collects, the retired claims must stay
retired, the code map must name those modules, and every relative README
link and CLAUDE.md anchor must resolve. None of this is catchable by
reading the code, which is how it drifted in the first place.

/qr/{address} is reachable without auth (the dashboard renders it with a
plain <img> tag, which cannot carry a bearer token), and it did two things
it should not: it accepted any plm1-prefixed string matching a shape regex,
without checking the bech32 checksum, and it ran qrcode.make on the event
loop — a free CPU amplifier that also stalled the scheduler and the
listener for the duration of every request.
Validation now goes through is_valid_plm_address, the same check
withdrawals and the admin fee_address validator use, behind a length guard
so an oversized path never reaches embit. The render is memoized per
address in a bounded LRU (valid addresses are cheap to generate, so an
unbounded cache would just move the amplification to memory) and pushed
off the loop with run_in_threadpool, and the response carries a
Cache-Control so a browser stops re-asking for an image that never changes.
The rejection now uses the structured error contract (invalid_address),
which already has its i18n key.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
fee_address has no column default, because an operator has to supply their own —
and the payout pays the 30% commission to it, so build_payout_transaction cannot
even be built without one. A fresh instance nonetheless opened rounds happily:
each took bets, confirmed them, and only then discovered it was unpayable,
wedging in "paying_out" and retrying every 60s with money already in the pool.
One manual recovery per round, until somebody noticed.
open_new_round_if_needed now checks rounds_can_open(config) alongside `paused`:
no payout address, no round. Nothing has moved yet at that point, which is the
whole difference. Same scope as pausing — a round already in progress still
closes, draws and pays out, since clearing the address mid-round is exactly the
operator slip that must not strand a live round.
Surfaced rather than silent, in the two places that matter: lottery_configured on
GET /rounds/current, which makes / show a *different* banner from the maintenance
one (telling a player "come back later" would be false — nothing is coming until
setup finishes), and a warning at the top of /admin's Parametri card, the one
screen that can fix it. rounds_can_open is where any future
would-make-a-round-unpayable prerequisite belongs, instead of being discovered at
payout time.
The test churn is the finding restated: 26 tests expected a round to open on an
instance with no payout address. Their fixtures now seed one, so each goes back to
testing what it says — several would otherwise have passed for the wrong reason,
returning None because of the missing address rather than because of the cooldown
or pause under test.

participant_count and jackpot_sats were computed over every round_participants
row, while the draw only picks from confirmed participants and the payout only
spends their sats. So the advertised jackpot could exceed the one paid out, and a
player whose bet was later abandoned appeared in the count and then vanished
again.
Counting only confirmed rows would have fixed the arithmetic and broken something
else: the player who just bet would see neither themselves nor their money for a
whole block. So this is the same confirmed/in-flight split the balance already
exposes (balance_sats vs pending_balance_sats): participant_count and
jackpot_sats are now the confirmed, authoritative figures, and
pending_participant_count/pending_jackpot_sats/has_pending_bets report what is in
flight — inclusive figures, not deltas, matching the balance pair's convention.
/'s round card shows the confirmed numbers big and the difference as an amber
"+N in attesa" suffix, reusing .balance-pending's colour for the same "not
settled yet" meaning. The two new spans render from server data through t(), so
they carry no data-i18n and onLanguageChange() repaints them from the last
response — the one-mechanism-per-element rule. Both strings are in all 7
languages.

_apply_header's linkage check only fires on a single-block advance, so a header
at the height we already held one for was applied on nothing but its own
self-consistency — and that check, as header_meets_its_own_target's own docstring
says, a server can satisfy with a self-declared easy target. So the one value the
draw is seeded from could be replaced under us at the current height, by a reorg
at the tip or by a single server disagreeing with the rest, with no check able to
speak to it. Separately, a header carrying no hex set tip_header_hex back to None
while advancing tip_height, leaving the two describing different blocks — the
exact pairing that function exists to keep.
Both are now refused without ending the session, unlike the fabrication cases
above them: neither is evidence of a hostile server, and rotating away would cost
us the one connection that also credits deposits and broadcasts transactions.
- A same-height header is ignored (logged when it actually differs). The hash
committed to for a height is not swapped under us; if ours turns out to be the
orphan, corroborate_header already refuses to seed a draw from it and the draw
waits for a further block.
- A hex-less header is ignored outright: nothing to validate, nothing to draw
from. A server that only ever pushed heights now freezes the draw — visibly,
via B-36's draw_stalled — instead of costing us the connection.
Because ignoring is not fatal, _run_once additionally refuses to publish the
client when the initial header leaves the tip still unknown, so this cannot
reopen B-63's window from the other side.
The two _run_once tests are bounded with asyncio.wait_for: without their guard
that call waits on session tasks nothing ends, and a regression must fail rather
than hang the suite.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
ElectrumListener._run_once assigned self.client before subscribe_headers()
returned, so there was a window — one round-trip wide, at process start — where
the connection looked alive while tip_height was still its initial 0.
"client is not None" is what every consumer reads as "the chain is reachable",
RoundScheduler._tick included, and a round closing inside that window recorded
tip_at_close = 0. The very first header we then learned about — the current tip,
a block mined *before* the round closed, whose hash was already public while
bets were still open — satisfied tip_height > tip_at_close and became the draw's
entropy. The draw's whole guarantee is that its seed did not exist yet when
betting stopped.
Two changes, defending different things:
- The client is published only once the first header has been applied, so
"client is not None" now means "reachable *and* we know where the chain is".
During the window consumers see no connection, which is honest: a bet gets the
same 503 it already gets while disconnected, and the background tasks skip a
cycle as they already do.
- _wait_for_next_block treats a baseline of 0 as *unknown*, not as height zero:
it adopts the first height it learns as the baseline, waits for a block
strictly after it, and records draw_baseline_tip_unknown so the extra block of
waiting is explainable from /admin. Unreachable via the listener now, but it is
the local statement of what the draw requires, and nothing else in that
function would notice if the invariant stopped holding.

The max-amount checkbox sends amount_sats == the whole confirmed balance, so
change came out at 0, the change output was dropped, and the transaction had a
single output. bump_fee has nothing to shrink there: it raised RbfError every
30s until the reconciler abandoned the row six hours later. The RBF
single-change-output limitation was a documented gap, but the UI made it the
*default* withdrawal path.
The extra-input fallback would not have helped this case: a transaction moving
the entire balance already spends every UTXO the sender has. So the fix is at
build time — build_signed_transaction never produces a change output below
DUST_LIMIT_SATS, and never folds it into the fee either:
- withdrawals pass reduce_amount_to_keep_change=True and move a dust limit less.
The fee already comes out of the withdrawn amount by design, so this is the
same rule applied a little harder, and Withdrawal.amount_requested_sats vs
amount_sent_sats already existed to record the difference.
- bets don't: the bet is a fixed price that can't be quietly reduced. A balance
exactly equal to the bet is refused with balance_leaves_no_change (translated
into all 7 languages, carrying required_extra_sats), which turns "a user's
balance must never exactly equal the bet" from a documented assumption into an
enforced one — and stops an unbumpable bet from holding a round open until the
reconciler gives up on it.
bump_fee's no-change guard stays: a single-output tx broadcast before this
change can still be pending across the deploy, and it must fail loudly rather
than start shrinking a recipient's output. Its test now hand-builds that shape,
precisely because the builder no longer will.

round_duration_seconds was read live on every scheduler tick and every bet
check, with the deadline computed as opened_at + duration. Lowering it from 600
to 60 while a round was 300s in closed that round instantly; raising it moved
the closes_at clients were already counting down to. round_cooldown_seconds had
the same property for the gap after a close. B-11 fixed this class of problem
for the advertised jackpot; the timing fields were left live.
Round now carries duration_seconds and cooldown_seconds, set from the config
when it opens. round_deadline() is the single place the deadline is computed —
the scheduler, place_bet's two checks and /rounds/current's closes_at all go
through it — and the cooldown is read off the round that just closed, so the gap
a round announced is the gap that's honoured. The config row becomes what the
*next* round opens with.
The migration backfills from the live config rather than leaving the column
defaults: an instance running 300s rounds would otherwise see the round
currently in progress jump to 600s the moment this lands, which is precisely the
retroactive change being fixed. Verified against a scratch DB with a non-default
config.

Every other admin mutation — config edit, pause/resume, privkey export, password
reset — leaves a trace; this one could silently mark a report resolved. With one
shared ADMIN_TOKEN and no per-admin identity, the audit log is the only
accountability there is.
bug_report_status_changed records the report id and the before/after status, and
carries the report's author as user_id so the entry is traceable from either
side. Nothing is written when the status doesn't actually change, matching
config_updated: an edit that changes nothing isn't an event, and noise hides the
real changes.
Also documents the new event in docs/guida-admin.md's audit table.

A candidate external spend has needed a quorum since B-29, but `value` and
`height` for a *credit* came from the single active connection and went straight
into utxo_events. One hostile or broken server could therefore inflate a user's
displayed balance with outpoints that don't exist. It never spends anyone else's
coins — a bet or withdrawal built on a phantom UTXO is refused at broadcast and
rolled back — but it wedges the balance display and burns build attempts, and on
a custodial platform a balance that isn't real is a support incident either way.
Balances move in both directions; both directions now need the same quorum.
corroborate_utxo_credit asks the other configured servers whether they report
the same outpoint, for the same amount, confirmed. The height itself isn't
compared: a server still catching up reports height 0 and simply doesn't agree,
which is the same answer, while two honest servers can't disagree on the height
of a genuinely confirmed outpoint.
refresh_user gains the phase that shape already implied: find_new_credit_
candidates (new, confirmed, not already held) inside the first session,
corroboration outside any session, then credit_confirmed_utxos over what
survived. Only new outpoints are corroborated — re-checking what we already hold
would open a connection to every other server on every refresh for an answer
that can no longer change anything.
A failed corroboration delays a credit, it never loses one: the next scripthash
notification or DepositReconciler sweep (300s) re-offers the same outpoint, and
the withholding is logged.

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.

The login throttle keyed on body.username.lower() while the lookup matched
User.username exactly, so "Bob" and "bob" were two accounts sharing one
rate-limit bucket — each able to lock the other out — and registration happily
accepted near-duplicate names, which on a custodial system is an impersonation
vector.
Uniqueness is now the database's job: a unique index on lower(username), with
register and login both matching through func.lower(). The name is still stored
exactly as typed, since that's what /admin and the audit log display, and the
username pattern is ASCII-only so lower() is the whole of the normalization.
The migration refuses to run if two existing accounts differ only by case. It
can't merge or rename one automatically: both are custodial accounts that may
hold funds, so that would be the migration silently deciding who owns what. It
names the collisions and leaves them to the operator — the container runs
`alembic upgrade head` at startup, so it surfaces as a refusal to start rather
than a half-applied schema. Verified both directions against a scratch DB, plus
`alembic check` (clean) and the collision guard actually firing.

_buckets is keyed by strings the caller chooses — any username, and (before
B-54) any IP — and only ever grew: decay_seconds aged a bucket's counter but
never removed the entry, so hammering login with random usernames was an
unbounded memory leak.
A bucket is "spent" once its lockout has expired *and* its failure count would
decay to zero on the next failure anyway — at which point keeping it and
dropping it are indistinguishable, which is what makes eviction safe. Those are
swept on record_failure (at most once every 60s) and on the read path, so a key
that's merely being probed never leaves an entry behind. That alone holds the
dict at the size of the genuinely active attack surface.
_MAX_BUCKETS = 50_000 is the backstop for a burst faster than the sweep
interval, when nothing has had time to expire. Over it, the entries closest to
expiry go first: what an attacker gets from a successful flood is the loss of
the shallowest, nearly-over lockouts, never the deep ones actually holding an
attack back.

Argon2 is deliberately expensive — tens of milliseconds of CPU per call. Called
inline from the async handlers for register, login, change-password and the
admin reset, that cost froze the entire process for its duration: every other
request, plus all six background tasks (scheduler, confirmation poller, RBF
bumper, listener, both reconcilers). A burst of unauthenticated login attempts
was therefore not just slow logins, it delayed draws and confirmations.
hash_password_async/verify_password_async wrap the existing pair in
run_in_threadpool, and every async caller now uses them. The synchronous
functions stay: they're what the wrappers call, and what tests and scripts (no
running loop) use directly.
The regression test runs a heartbeat task alongside the hashing and counts how
often the loop got to run it — 1 tick with the old inline call, many with the
threadpooled one.
Also drops the running "already fixed and removed" list from BUGS.md: the file
tracks open findings, and `git log --all --grep 'B-nn'` is the record of how a
closed one was closed.

client_ip() read the first element of X-Forwarded-For, which is correct only if
the proxy replaces the header. Caddy appends the peer address to whatever the
client sent, so element 0 was whatever the caller claimed: rotating a fake value
per request minted a fresh identity every time and walked straight through the
login and registration throttles (B-33) and the SSE per-IP subscriber cap
(B-38). Only the per-username login bucket, which doesn't key on the IP, still
bit.
Both halves of the audit's fix, since they hold independently:
- the Caddyfile overwrites the header with `header_up X-Forwarded-For
{remote_host}`, so what reaches the app is the actual peer and nothing else.
This is the one that makes the app's assumption true at the source.
- client_ip() reads the *last* hop rather than the first — the element written
by the hop closest to us, i.e. by our own proxy. Exactly one trusted proxy
sits in front of the app (`app` is only `expose`d on the compose network,
never published to the host), so that element is the real peer.
An empty or comma-only header now falls back to request.client.host instead of
returning "", which was its own shared-bucket evasion.
Regression tests both sides: two requests spoofing different prefixes must key
to the same IP, and the Caddyfile must keep the header_up directive (checked by
`caddy validate`).

place_bet commits its participant row as "building" before broadcasting (B-08's
two-phase write), while the scheduler flips the round "open" -> "closing" in one
transaction and counts in-flight participants in another. A bet whose deadline
check passed just before that flip could commit in between: the count saw zero,
so the round drew and paid out over the "confirmed" participants only, while the
bet confirmed normally and its sats landed in the pool address — credited to no
round, to no participant, with no refund path, silently improving the next
round's payout change.
Two locks on the same door:
- place_bet re-checks the deadline after building and signing (the first check
happens before the UTXO scan, so a slow build could carry a bet past it), then
commits the participant row behind a compare-and-set on the round's own row,
UPDATE rounds ... WHERE status = 'open'. That UPDATE takes SQLite's write lock,
so the two transactions can no longer interleave: either the bet commits first
and the scheduler's in-flight count sees it, or the flip commits first and the
guard matches zero rows and refuses the bet with round_closing before anything
is broadcast. A write-snapshot conflict (OperationalError) is the same
situation and gets the same answer. Nothing has been broadcast at that point,
so the rollback releases the UTXOs and leaves no rows behind.
- _close_and_draw re-counts in-flight bets in the same session it snapshots the
participants from, and returns with the round still "closing" if it finds any.
Redundant given the CAS, and cheap: it fails safe and the next tick retries.
No new error code — a bet refused this way is exactly the "round is closing"
case the user already sees.

The payout has to spend one pool UTXO per bet, so reusing MAX_TX_INPUTS (50)
for it made any round past ~50 players unpayable: select_utxos raised
too_many_inputs, the round stayed "paying_out" retrying every 60s forever, and
since no new round may open while one is active, the whole lottery stopped with
the pool stuck. The cap was being enforced on the payout side, i.e. discovered
once the money was already committed and there was no way back.
Two halves:
- select_utxos takes the cap as a parameter. Bets and withdrawals keep
MAX_TX_INPUTS = 50, which protects a user from a fee that eats into the amount
they are moving; the payout uses MAX_PAYOUT_TX_INPUTS = 500, where that
argument doesn't apply — 400 inputs at 1 sat/vB cost ~0.00027 PLM out of the
winner's 70% share. What actually bounds it is relay policy: 500 inputs is
~34 kvB against the 100 kvB standardness limit, and signing that many measures
~0.4s, once per round, inside a background task.
- place_bet refuses the 401st bet with a new round_full error (translated into
all 7 languages), so "a round can always be paid out" is an invariant checked
before any money moves. MAX_PARTICIPANTS_PER_ROUND sits below the input cap to
leave the payout headroom for pool change from earlier rounds, and counts every
participant row rather than only confirmed ones, since a failed bet frees a slot.
A round already wedged past the old cap now pays out on the next retry tick.

Third full-codebase audit, after the two earlier lists (B-01 … B-24 and
B-25 … B-49) were emptied and BUGS.md deleted. Analysis only — nothing is
fixed yet; each entry gets its own commit with its own regression test.
Branched off feature/bug-reports rather than main on purpose: the audit

Design pass on the bug report page, staying inside the site's existing
design system (tokens, IBM Plex Sans, card/badge/pill components, stroke
icon set) rather than introducing a new one:
- A slim top bar (brand mark + back-to-home pill button + language switcher)
replaces the bare floating heading, so the page reads as part of the
product instead of an orphaned form.
- The "write in English" notice moves inside the form card, right above the
field it applies to, and switches from the amber "needs attention" tone to
an accent-tinted info tone, so it doesn't visually collide with the
bug-status badges' own use of amber for "not read yet".
- "Your reports" is promoted to a proper labeled section with a cleaner row
layout (truncated description with a title tooltip, compact date).
- A character counter on the description field.
- The back-to-home control is now a bordered pill with an arrow icon instead
of a bare text link with a hardcoded "←", which also meant dropping that
hardcoded arrow from all 7 translations.
Also, two content refinements based on feedback:
- Max description length dropped from 5000 to 2000 characters, enforced on
both the textarea and the API's Pydantic validator.
- The "read" status is relabeled from a passive "read"/"letta" to an active
"acknowledged"/"presa in carico" (and each other language's own equivalent
helpdesk term) — it communicates a team is on it, not just that someone
glanced at it. Only the label changed; the underlying "read" status value
in the API/DB is untouched.

The bug report form previously shipped as plain Italian only. It now shares
i18n.js with / (same TRANSLATIONS table, new bugReport.* keys in all 7
languages, own language switcher since the page has no navbar to hang one
off), so a non-Italian speaker can read the form and their own report
history in their language.
The description field itself still has to reach the admin panel in English
(operator-facing, untranslated by design), so the page states that
explicitly via a standing banner (bugReport.englishNotice) — translated
into every language rather than left in English, so the instruction to
write in English is itself understandable to whoever's reading it.

Turns the /report-bug placeholder into a real form (POST /bug-reports,
optionally attributed to the logged-in user) and adds a "Segnalazioni bug"
section to /admin to view and triage them. A logged-in reporter can also
check their own report's status via GET /bug-reports/mine, since anonymous
submissions have no user to show a history to.
Status is a three-state lifecycle (open -> read -> resolved) rather than a
plain boolean, so an admin can acknowledge a report distinctly from actually
fixing it. The schema went through two migrations because the first one
(add bug_reports table) had already been applied against the running
instance with a `resolved` boolean before the three-state design was
decided, so a follow-up migration backfills it into `status` instead of
rewriting already-applied history.

pool_amount_sats * 70 // 100 was hardcoded identically in both
rounds/scheduler.py (the actual payout) and api/routes/rounds.py (the
advertised jackpot). They happened to agree, but nothing enforced it —
changing one without the other would have made GET /rounds/current's
jackpot silently diverge from the real payout. Extract winner_share()
into rounds/service.py as the single source of truth.

A change output's confirmation is credited by two independent, unordered
paths: the Electrum listener (event-driven, near-instant — credits it as
a UtxoEvent and folds it into cached_balance_sats via recompute_balance)
and this module's PendingTransaction.status flip (tx/confirmation.py,
polled every 10s). The listener normally wins that race, so for the gap
until the poller catches up, compute_pending_balance kept adding the same
change on top of a cached_balance_sats that already included it —
observed live as a user's displayed balance briefly jumping by exactly
the change amount before self-correcting a few seconds later.
Fix: skip any change output whose (txid, vout) already has a UtxoEvent
for this user before summing pending_change_sats.

winner_user_id is committed as soon as the draw picks a winner, but
winner_amount_sats isn't set until the payout tx is built afterwards
(a real Electrum listunspent round-trip later, in a separate DB
transaction). The frontend revealed the win banner as soon as
winner_user_id appeared, formatPlm(undefined) rendered as "—", and
the toast/result box briefly showed "You won! +— PLM" until the next
poll picked up the real amount. Gate the winner's own reveal on
winner_amount_sats also being non-null; a loss can still reveal
immediately since it never needs the amount.

B-25 … B-49, each in its own commit with its own regression test — the suite
went from 139 to 253 tests. Also on this branch: Docker + Caddy security
headers, the API docs gate, admin endpoint limits, and the SSE gaps.
B-01 … B-49 are all fixed, so the file held no open work — only a history that
git already keeps. CLAUDE.md now explains how to resolve the B-nn markers left
throughout the code against that history, and repeats the caveat the empty list
does not carry on its own: no open findings is not the same as no bugs.
The one remaining reference, in an already-applied migration's docstring, is
left as the historical record it is.
_release_failed_bet and _release_failed_withdrawal restored the balance, freed
the reserved UTXOs and (for a bet) removed the participant without calling
broadcaster.publish(), so every dashboard kept showing the phantom bet and the
reduced balance until its next poll — while the success path and the
reconciler's own abandon path both published.
The two regression tests pre-open the round before subscribing: place_bet opens
one itself, and that publish() would otherwise satisfy the assertion whether or
not the rollback published anything.
select_utxos had no ceiling on input count, so an address fragmented into many
small deposits built an ever-larger transaction whose fee — deducted from the
amount being moved — eroded the bet's share of the pool or the withdrawn amount,
and past a few hundred inputs stopped being standard at all.
MAX_TX_INPUTS (50) now bounds the selection. Reaching the cap without covering
the target is reported as its own "too_many_inputs" code, distinct from having
no funds, with the cap carried in the error params for the 7 translations. The
payout path records the same distinction in its payout_failed audit reason.
Both held arbitrary-length data (a raw signed transaction hex, an audit
payload) in a bare String, which SQLAlchemy compiles to VARCHAR with no
length. SQLite and PostgreSQL accept that; other backends like MySQL
require a length on VARCHAR and would reject it. Add a migration
(verified upgrade/downgrade/upgrade round-trip, and confirmed with
`alembic check` that it leaves no further diff against the models).

Caddy adds none of these on its own. Add HSTS, X-Content-Type-Options,
X-Frame-Options, Referrer-Policy and a CSP scoped to default-src
'self' plus the one external asset (Google Fonts). script-src/style-src
need 'unsafe-inline' because both SPAs rely on inline onclick handlers
and style="" attributes throughout — removing those is a separate,
larger refactor.
Validated with `caddy validate` and a live container curl check.
Adds a static regression test asserting the header directives stay

poll_once and reconcile.py's existence check both called
blockchain.transaction.get(txid, verbose=True). Several Electrum server
implementations and versions reject the verbose flag outright
("verbose transactions are currently unsupported"), which would have
meant no confirmations and no reconciliation ever running against such
a server, read as a plain transport error. reconcile.py additionally
decided whether to abandon a transaction - releasing its funds - by
substring-matching the error text ("missing", "not found", ...), which
only works against ElectrumX's specific wording.
Both now ask blockchain.scripthash.get_history for the address that
owns every input of the transaction (a user's own address for a
bet/withdrawal, the pool address for a payout) and look for the txid in
the result: present with height > 0 means confirmed, present with
height <= 0 means still in the mempool, absent means the server
doesn't know it. get_history is a plain, universally-supported Electrum
method, and "not in the list" replaces the old substring-matching
entirely - no more guessing at error wording to decide whether to
release funds. History is cached per scripthash within one pass, since
every "payout" row shares the same pool address.
New app/tx/pending_address.py factors out own_address_for (the
address derivation was previously duplicated informally inside
tx/broadcast.py's signing context) so confirmation.py and reconcile.py
share one definition instead of two that could compute different
addresses for the same row.
tests/unit/test_confirmation.py and test_reconcile.py needed real User
rows and a master-key bootstrap they didn't have before, since address
derivation is now exercised for real rather than assumed. Suite grows
from 217 to 222 tests. BUGS.md moves B-41 to Previously fixed - no
Medium-severity finding remains open.
bump_fee issued one get_transaction per input (up to 15s each) and
then a broadcast, all with the caller's DB session held open - exactly
the pattern already fixed elsewhere for the same reason (B-18's
_trigger_payout, B-31's refresh_user). Also, _prevout_amount computed
a prevout's satoshi value via round(value_coins * 100_000_000) on a
float the server reported, in a codebase that is otherwise strictly
integer-satoshi.
bump_fee now takes a session_factory and a pending_id instead of a
live session and row, with three phases: read what's needed (the
signing key, current fee rate, raw tx) and close the session before
any network call; do the chain reads, signing and broadcast with no
session open; reopen a session only to persist the outcome.
_prevout_amount now asks for the raw (non-verbose) transaction and
reads embit's parsed TransactionOutput.value directly - already an
exact integer, no float conversion involved at all.
A pending_transaction that's no longer "pending" by the time bump_fee
actually runs (it confirmed in the meantime, a normal race) is now a
quiet no-op returning None, rather than being folded into RbfBumper's
error-logging path.
Suite grows from 214 to 217 tests. BUGS.md moves B-40 to Previously
fixed, and trims its own now-stale claim that bump_fee still depended
on verbose=True (B-41) - it no longer does.
create_async_engine had no connect_args and there was no PRAGMA
anywhere in the repo. SQLite's default rollback-journal mode lets a
writer block every reader for the duration of its transaction, and a
second writer arriving while one is already active fails immediately
with "database is locked" rather than waiting at all - realistic given
five concurrent background tasks (scheduler, confirmation poller, RBF
bumper, two reconcilers) plus every HTTP handler share one file, and
nothing previously handled that error.
app/db/base.py now registers a "connect" event on the engine that sets
journal_mode=WAL, synchronous=NORMAL and a 5-second busy_timeout on
every new DBAPI connection - applied only when the dialect is sqlite,
so a future PostgreSQL DATABASE_URL is unaffected. WAL lets readers and
writers proceed without blocking each other, and busy_timeout gives a
second writer a real window to wait instead of failing instantly.
Left out: an explicit application-level retry wrapper for "database is
locked" in the background loops, the other half of the proposed fix -
busy_timeout already gives SQLite itself several seconds to resolve
writer-vs-writer contention before ever raising, and every background
loop already catches and logs an unhandled exception before its next
scheduled tick, which is itself a retry, just not an immediate one.
Suite grows from 211 to 214 tests. BUGS.md moves B-39 to Previously
fixed.
GET /rounds/stream capped concurrent subscribers with one global
counter (MAX_SUBSCRIBERS=500): anyone opening 500 connections degraded
every other user to polling. The comment called it a defensive cap;
it was actually the vector, since nothing stopped a single source from
exhausting it alone.
RoundEventBroadcaster now also tracks subscribers per client IP,
capped much lower (MAX_SUBSCRIBERS_PER_IP=5). Past that cap, opening
one more stream evicts that same IP's own oldest connection (woken via
a new EVICTED sentinel so the SSE generator closes it promptly) rather
than refusing the new one or letting one abusive IP crowd out unrelated
clients under the old global-only cap. The global cap stays as a
backstop against overall resource exhaustion regardless of source.
Extracted client_ip() (X-Forwarded-For, since Caddy reverse-proxies
every request) out of auth/routes.py into app/api/client_ip.py so the
login/registration throttles (B-33) and this new per-IP cap share one
definition instead of two that could drift apart.
Not implemented: enforcing the connection cap at the Caddy layer
itself, which the proposed fix also suggested - the standard Caddy
image this project uses has no such directive without a third-party
module, and building a custom image felt like a bigger, separate change
than this fix warranted.
Suite grows from 201 to 211 tests. BUGS.md moves B-38 to Previously
fixed.
request_withdrawal validated against confirmed UTXOs only and answered
a flat insufficient_balance even when the requested amount was covered
by the pending-inclusive balance the UI actually shows (unconfirmed
change from a recent bet/withdrawal) — contradicting what the user was
looking at on screen. Raise balance_pending_confirmation instead when
compute_pending_balance covers the amount, carrying the pending sats
in params, with its error.* string in all 7 languages.

_wait_for_next_block had no timeout, no log, and no audit entry: a
connection that stopped advancing the tip left a round silently frozen

block-time multiples), and surface the wait via a new Round.drawing_started_at

Neither self-service password change nor the admin reset invalidated
already-issued JWTs — a 24h-lifetime token stayed valid regardless, so
a stolen token (or an attacker who already had the old password) kept
working past a password change meant to lock them out. The admin reset
exists precisely for the "account compromised" case and didn't evict
the attacker at all.
Add User.token_version (migration 943dbd74d983), embedded in every JWT
as a "tv" claim and checked against the DB on every request in
get_current_user/get_optional_user; a mismatch reads as session_expired.
Both change-password and the admin reset bump it. change-password hands
back a freshly minted token so the caller's own session keeps working
instead of being logged out by its own request; the admin reset does
not, since that session isn't the one making the call.

POST /auth/login had no rate limiting, no lockout, no delay — a patient
distributed attack could brute-force a password against an enumerable
username list on a custodial wallet, where a guessed password means
withdrawing someone's funds.
Add per-username and per-IP throttling with exponential backoff
(app/auth/rate_limit.py), keyed on app.state like UserLocks rather than
a module global so each app instance gets isolated throttle state.
Unknown-user and wrong-password already shared one response path, so no
enumeration oracle there. Registration is throttled per-IP too, which
also bounds how many accounts one IP can spin up (B-31).

bump_fee computed fee_delta as new_fee - old_fee, falling back to a
flat 1-satoshi bump whenever that came out zero or negative - which
happened whenever old_fee (the actual fee paid, from real prevout
amounts) already exceeded the naive target, e.g. because dust change
had been folded into the original fee (psbt_builder.py's
DUST_LIMIT_SATS handling). A 1-satoshi total increase is nowhere near
BIP125 rule 4's minimum (the replacement must pay at least the
incremental relay fee rate times its own vsize more than what it
replaces), so the node rejected it every time - and since bump_fee
raised before touching `pending`, the next tick retried with identical
parameters every 30 seconds, forever. Separately, the fee rate climbed
by 1 sat/vB every bump with no ceiling.
fee_delta is now max(target_fee - old_fee, vsize * the incremental
relay rate) - always at least the relay-mandated minimum regardless of
what the naive arithmetic produces. pending.fee_rate_sat_vb is set to
the actual resulting rate rather than the naive target, so a later
bump's arithmetic starts from what's really being paid instead of
drifting from it. Once a transaction reaches MAX_FEE_RATE_SAT_VB (a
new constant, 10,000 sat/vB, shared with RoundConfig.fee_rate_sat_vb's
existing admin-facing bound so the two can't drift apart - the same
reason MIN_PASSWORD_LENGTH is shared elsewhere) bump_fee refuses to
bump further; the reconciler abandons it if it never confirms (B-27)
instead of this retrying forever.
Suite grows from 185 to 187 tests. BUGS.md moves B-32 to Previously
fixed.
_run_once awaited _subscribe_all_users() inline, before starting the
header/scripthash consumer tasks, and that method subscribed one user
at a time. At thousands of users that's thousands of sequential
round-trips during which nothing else ran: tip_height was frozen and
an in-flight draw's _wait_for_next_block made zero progress for the
entire resubscribe - a reconnect (which the listener already treats as
routine, not exceptional) could stall the lottery for minutes.
_subscribe_all_users now fans out with bounded concurrency
(asyncio.Semaphore, 20 at a time) instead of a serial loop, and one
user's failure no longer stops the rest. _run_once now starts it as
its own background task, created after the consumer tasks rather than
awaited before them, so tip updates and already-subscribed users'
notifications keep flowing throughout - its own completion is
deliberately not raced against the session-ending tasks (unlike them,
it's expected to finish normally), and its failure is logged the same
way address_for_new_user's background task is (B-30).
Left out: decoupling the listunspent refresh from the subscribe call
itself (the third part of the proposed fix) - the periodic
DepositReconciler (B-30) already provides a backstop for a slow or
delayed initial refresh, so the added complexity wasn't worth it here.
Suite grows from 182 to 185 tests, including an end-to-end test
against _run_once proving a new tip is processed while a slow
resubscribe is still in flight. BUGS.md moves B-31 to Previously
fixed.
Deposits were credited exclusively by scripthash-change notifications,
with nothing re-verifying a user's balance against the chain if a
subscription was ever silently lost. address_for_new_user's subscribe
was fire-and-forget: the task wasn't retained, so it could be
garbage-collected mid-flight, and any failure (including self.client
turning None between the check and the task running) vanished into
asyncio's default unretrieved-exception handler instead of being
logged anywhere. On an otherwise healthy, long-lived connection there
may be no reconnect for days to re-subscribe everyone, so a user in
that state never saw their deposits.
address_for_new_user now retains the task and logs its exception if
it fails. New app/deposits/reconcile.py adds DepositReconciler, a
periodic sweep (every 5 minutes, gated on the Electrum client being
connected, same shape as tx/reconcile.py) that round-robins over every
user and calls the listener's own refresh_user (renamed from
_refresh_user since it's now called from outside the class) - so the
notification-driven and periodic paths can never behave differently.
Deliberately sweeps every user rather than only ones missing from the
in-memory scripthash map, since that map can't tell "never subscribed"
apart from "subscribed, but the server stopped delivering
notifications for it". Wired into app/main.py's lifespan alongside the
other three background reconcilers.
Suite grows from 176 to 182 tests. BUGS.md moves B-30 to Previously

detect_external_spends marked a UTXO spent_txid='external-spend'
irreversibly the moment it was missing from one listunspent reply, on
one server, with no way to undo it. A rotated-to server that's broken
or behind, or an empty reply, could zero a user's balance permanently.
Split into three functions in deposits/service.py: find_utxos_missing_
from (read-only candidate detection, and refuses to flag anything at
all when listunspent comes back entirely empty for a funded address -
that reads as a broken response, not a full sweep), mark_utxos_spent_
externally (persistence only, once a candidate is already confirmed),
and reinstate_reappeared_utxos (undoes the mark if the outpoint
reappears as unspent later).
ElectrumListener gains corroborate_utxo_spent, sharing the same
majority-quorum logic corroborate_header already uses for B-28: before
a candidate is marked, the other configured servers are asked whether
they also see it as spent. _refresh_user now reads candidates, then
corroborates each one with no DB session held open across those
network calls (same shape as B-18/B-25), then persists.
Suite grows from 165 to 176 tests. BUGS.md moves B-29 to Previously
fixed.
A single hostile Electrum server, or a MITM on the one active
connection, could fabricate the block header the draw's entropy comes
from and so pick the winner of every round: headers were accepted with
no proof-of-work check and no link to the previous tip.
app/rounds/draw.py adds header_meets_its_own_target (rejects a header
whose hash doesn't satisfy the difficulty target it claims) and
header_prev_hash. electrum/listener.py's _apply_header now rejects a
header failing either check by raising HeaderValidationError, which
ends the session the same way a dropped connection would so the
listener rotates to the next configured server.
ElectrumListener gains corroborate_header: before the draw uses a
block, it's independently checked against the other configured servers
and needs a majority to agree. rounds/scheduler.py's
_wait_for_next_block now calls this and, on failure, logs why and
waits for a further block instead of ever using an uncorroborated
header.
Certificate/hostname verification stays disabled, so this doesn't
cover an attacker able to MITM every configured server at once -
BUGS.md notes that as not covered.
Suite grows from 151 to 165 tests. BUGS.md moves B-28 to Previously
fixed.
Same as before: once a bug is fixed, its long write-up collapses into
a short paragraph pointing at the fix commits instead of repeating
what the code and commit messages already say. File goes from 442 to
343 lines.
bump_fee (tx/broadcast.py) used to overwrite PendingTransaction.
broadcast_at on every fee bump, but reconcile.py's abandon-after-N-
hours grace period is measured from that same column. A transaction
successfully bumped every rbf_timeout_seconds (900s by default) but
never mined reset that clock before it could ever reach the 6-hour
abandon window, so it was never abandoned: its UTXOs never returned to
the user, and if it was a bet the round stayed in "closing"
indefinitely.
PendingTransaction gains a last_broadcast_at column (migration
861e76aaf34c, backfilled from broadcast_at for existing rows before
the NOT NULL constraint is applied). broadcast_at is now never
rewritten after creation, so reconcile.py's _is_due keeps measuring
from the first broadcast unchanged. bump_fee updates last_broadcast_at
instead, and should_bump now reads last_broadcast_at rather than
broadcast_at — correct, since whether another bump is due should reset
after every bump, unlike the reconciler's abandon check, which must
not.
BUGS.md moves B-27 to "Previously fixed" with the fix description; the
suite grows from 148 to 151 tests, including a direct proof that a tx
bumped a minute ago but first broadcast 7 hours ago still gets
abandoned.

_trigger_payout used to run exactly once, from _close_and_draw. Any
failure after that point — no Electrum client, insufficient pool
UTXOs, a missing fee_address, a rejected broadcast — wedged the round
in paying_out forever, and every one of those early returns except the
generic exception handler logged nothing at all: /admin showed a
stalled round with no explanation. A process restart while paying_out
hit the same dead end.
_tick now handles status == "paying_out": it calls the new
_retry_payout_if_due, which re-invokes _trigger_payout unless the most
recent payout_failed audit entry for the round is younger than
_PAYOUT_RETRY_INTERVAL_SECONDS (60s) — throttled so a persistently
broken payout (e.g. no fee_address set yet) doesn't retry, and re-log
a failure, on every 5-second tick. Every early return in
_trigger_payout now calls _log_payout_failure with a reason string, so
that throttle always has something to check against and /admin always
shows why a round is stuck.
This is safe to fire on a restart too, because B-25 already made
_trigger_payout idempotent (it no-ops if a non-terminal payout
PendingTransaction already exists) and persists before broadcasting —
so a round found paying_out at startup, whatever state its payout was
actually in, gets retried the same way. That closes the paying_out
half of the "scheduler doesn't resume mid-flight rounds after a
restart" gap in CLAUDE.md; the drawing/block-wait half is untouched
(see BUGS.md B-36).
BUGS.md moves B-26 to "Previously fixed" with the fix description; the
suite grows from 143 to 148 tests.

_trigger_payout used to broadcast the payout transaction and only
afterwards write payout_txid and its PendingTransaction. A crash in
that window (docker-compose.yml auto-restarts on crash) left a payout
on-chain with zero record: the round stuck in paying_out, nothing for
the reconciler to resolve, and a manual retry that would have paid the
winner a second time. This mirrors B-08, which already fixed the same
gap for place_bet/request_withdrawal.
_trigger_payout now has four phases: read, build (network read only,
no write), persist the intent as a PendingTransaction(kind="payout",
status="building") and commit, then broadcast and promote to
"pending". A rejected broadcast now leaves that "building" row for
tx/reconcile.py to resolve — its existing building/pending handling
already covers a payout kind correctly, including clearing
payout_txid on abandonment, so reconcile.py needed no changes.
Since pool UTXOs aren't tracked in utxo_events and so can never be
reserved/released the way a user's own UTXOs are, two guards go along
with the two-phase write: _trigger_payout now refuses to build a
second payout for a round that already has a non-terminal
PendingTransaction, and the payout builder excludes any UTXO already
referenced by any non-terminal payout transaction
(_reserved_payout_outpoints) so a stale payout from an earlier round
the reconciler hasn't abandoned yet can't be double-spent by a fresh
attempt.
This makes a payout retry safe; making one happen automatically is
B-26, still open. BUGS.md moves B-25 to "Previously fixed" with the
fix description; the suite grows from 139 to 143 tests.

A second full-codebase pass over app/, both static frontends and the
Docker/Caddy deployment found 25 issues (4 critical, 6 high, 7 medium,
8 low), none of which the 139-test suite catches. All are open.
Each entry carries file:line references, why it is a problem, and a
Proposed fix paragraph with the concrete approach rather than a bare
"fix this". The 24 findings of the 2026-07-26 audit move to a
"Previously fixed" section, unchanged.
The four critical ones:
B-25 the payout broadcasts before recording anything, so a crash in
that window leaves an on-chain payout with no DB trace and a
manual retry would double-pay the winner
B-26 any transient failure at payout time (no Electrum client,
insufficient pool UTXOs) returns silently and wedges the round
in paying_out forever, with nothing in the audit log
B-27 every RBF bump rewrites broadcast_at, which is the same field
the reconciler's 6-hour abandon deadline is measured from, so
a repeatedly-bumped tx is never abandoned
B-28 headers are accepted with no PoW or prev-hash validation over a
TLS connection with certificate verification disabled, and that
header is the draw's only source of entropy

credit_confirmed_utxos only ever credited new UTXOs; a UTXO spent by
something other than the app's own bet/withdrawal/payout flow (e.g. someone
using the raw derived privkey directly) never got its spent_txid set, so
cached_balance_sats kept counting it forever. detect_external_spends mirrors
the same listunspent refresh in the other direction: anything still marked
unspent in our DB but missing from the address's current unspent set gets
spent_txid="external-spend", an audit_log entry, and an immediate balance
recompute — wired into the same ElectrumListener._refresh_user call that
already runs on every scripthash notification and on listener (re)connect.

/guida now serves a static app/static/guida.html placeholder instead of
docs/guida-utente.md, which sidesteps the known Docker gap (docs/ was never
COPYed into the image). Added a matching /report-bug placeholder route and
pointed the navbar's bug icon at it instead of the unset GitHub issues URL,
with an outline circle + exclamation mark to match the help icon's style.

Use PalladiumWallet's mainnet bootstrap server list (ChainProfiles.cs)
as the example instead of a generic placeholder, since those are the
actual servers this deployment should fall back to.
BUGS.md keeps every finding's original description and gains, per entry, what was
actually done and where its regression test lives — including the two entries
fixed differently from the plan (B-15 validates at startup, B-09 kept both
callers plus a bounded retry) and the one only partially fixed by decision (B-16,
where shipping the guide was deferred).
It also gains a Runtime verification section, which is the part worth reading:
what the live Docker deployment actually demonstrated (startup validation on the
real .env, the listener connecting and holding, rounds cycling, the migration
applied, and the reconciler's missing-tx heuristic checked against the real
server's error message) separated from what has no runtime evidence at all —
nothing has spent money since the restart, so the two-phase write, the RBF
retargeting, the reconciler's actual behaviour and the dust path are unit-tested
only. A green suite is not a working deployment, and the file now says so.
CLAUDE.md documents the two things a reader would otherwise have to reverse-
engineer: the transaction lifecycle (why rows are written before broadcasting,
what each PendingTransaction status means, why spent_txid must track the current
txid, and that one-active-round is now a DB invariant) and the Electrum
connection's rotation/keepalive/timeout behaviour. Its Known gaps list is rewritten
to say what is still open now that transaction-level state self-heals but
round-level state does not.

Amounts were rendered by bare sats/SATS_PER_PLM division, so binary
floating-point artefacts reached the UI — a 0.7 PLM jackpot could display as
0.7000000000000001 (B-22). formatPlm() in app.js and fmtPlm() in admin.js route
every display site through Intl.NumberFormat with the already-resolved language.
Input fields deliberately keep the raw value: a grouped, localized string would
break parseFloat, and amounts sent to the server still go through
Math.round(x * SATS_PER_PLM).
withLoading kept a snapshot of the button's markup and restored it in finally,
but refreshMe() is fired from the SSE handler, the poll chain, placeBet, withdraw
and showDashboard, all sharing #refresh-btn. Two overlapping calls made the second
snapshot the *loading* label and then restore it permanently, leaving the button
stuck on "Aggiornamento…" (B-23). The in-flight promise now lives in a WeakMap
keyed by the button, so a nested call awaits the existing one and only the
outermost call touches the markup.
The registration form mirrors the constraints the server now enforces
(minlength/pattern/required) and register() pre-checks the password length, so the
failure is immediate and translated instead of a generic 422 (B-12).
Five new error codes are translated in all 7 languages — broadcast_failed,
amount_below_dust_limit, withdrawal_to_own_address, internal_error,
guide_unavailable — keeping the key sets identical, as the i18n contract in
CLAUDE.md requires (verified: 123 keys per language).

A dropped connection used to hang the whole platform permanently, and three
defects composed to do it (BUGS.md B-01):
The read loop's death was invisible. When the socket closed, _read_loop broke out
and finished, but _run_once was blocked on gather() over two notification
consumers waiting on queues nobody would ever fill again — it never returned and
never raised, so the reconnect-with-backoff logic was unreachable.
client.wait_closed() now resolves when the loop ends for any reason, and
_run_once races it against the consumers and a keepalive with
asyncio.wait(FIRST_COMPLETED).
Nothing had a timeout. request() registered a future, wrote to a half-closed
socket (drain() often doesn't raise) and awaited a reply that would never come.
That hung a POST /bets *while holding the per-user lock*, and could stop the
confirmation poller for good. Every request is now bounded at 15s, and a timeout
tears the connection down rather than leaving a server that owes us a reply in
rotation.
There was no keepalive, so on a quiet instance the normal way this connection
dies is an idle-timeout drop by the server (~10 minutes for many). A server.ping
every 60s makes that observable within a minute.
listener.client is also cleared before reconnecting, so callers stop treating a
dead connection as live.
On top of the finding, the listener now rotates over a list of servers:
ELECTRUM_FALLBACK_SERVERS holds comma-separated host:port[:notls] extras, tried
after the primary. Everything the platform does goes through this one connection
— deposit credits, broadcasts, confirmations, the chain tip the draw waits on —
which made a single hardcoded server its biggest point of failure. A failed or
dropped session moves to the next server immediately and only sleeps on the
backoff once every server has had a turn, so one dead server costs one attempt
instead of an outage, while a genuinely offline network still backs off. A
malformed entry fails at startup, not during the outage when the fallback is what
you need.
Also fixes B-19: header handling refuses a height below the current tip and
applies height and hex together, since _wait_for_next_block waits for
tip_height > tip_at_close (a regression silently added a block to the draw's
wait) and that hex is the draw's entropy source, so a mismatched pair would be
worse than a stale one.
Verified in the live deployment: the log shows the endpoint list, then "Electrum
connected to santantonio.sytes.net:50002", and the connection holds.

Startup validation (B-15). An empty JWT_SECRET makes PyJWT raise InvalidKeyError
on every login and an empty XPRV_ENCRYPTION_KEY makes Fernet fail on the first
key derivation — either way the container came up looking healthy and broke the
moment a real user touched it. validate_runtime_secrets() reports every problem
at once and is called from the lifespan (wired in the next commit).
Deviation from the plan in BUGS.md, which proposed a Pydantic field_validator:
Settings is constructed at import time by every module that reads config,
including the test suite, which has no .env and no business holding real secrets
— a validator there would fail a fresh clone at collection. At startup the
guarantee that matters is unchanged (the server won't serve traffic
half-configured) without coupling imports to a gitignored file. An empty
ADMIN_TOKEN is deliberately non-fatal: require_admin already denies everything,
so the effect is a locked panel, not an open one.
Unhandled errors answer the documented shape (B-24). The catch-all returned a
bare-string `detail` while app/api/errors.py documents
{"code", "message", "params"}, leaving clients to special-case exactly the
responses they understand least. It now returns internal_error in that shape,
with the exception text staying in logs/app.log and out of the response body.
GET /guida no longer crashes (B-16). It reads docs/guida-utente.md, which the
Dockerfile doesn't ship, so in every real deployment that navbar link was a 500 —
confirmed in the deployed log, which holds two of them from earlier today ending
in "RuntimeError: File at path docs/guida-utente.md does not exist." It now
checks the file and answers a structured 404 (guide_unavailable) with an error
logged. Shipping docs/ in the image was written and then reverted on request: the
guide is being reworked first, so /guida answers 404 in Docker for now, which is
an accepted state rather than an oversight.

fee_address was the dangerous one (B-05). PUT /admin/config assigned whatever it
was given, and a well-formed address from another chain (bc1...) parses fine as a
witness program — so every round's 30% commission would be signed and broadcast
to a script nobody holds the key for. A malformed one instead wedged the payout
with an unhandled EmbitError. It now has to pass is_valid_plm_address, the same
check user withdrawals already had. Numeric fields got bounds too:
fee_rate_sat_vb=0 produces transactions no node relays, which stalls bets,
payouts and withdrawals alike, and round_duration_seconds=0 expires a round the
instant it opens.
Config changes are audit-logged (B-10). /pause and /resume were logged but a
config edit wasn't, so the most sensitive setting in the system could be changed
without leaving any trace — contradicting CLAUDE.md, which says audit_log records
what changed. The entry carries a before/after diff per field, computed before
assignment, and no-op updates write nothing. `paused` was removed from
_CONFIG_FIELDS so the maintenance switch has exactly one audited path; it stays
in the response model.
Admin token comparison is constant-time (B-14), with the empty-token check kept
*ahead* of it: compare_digest("", "") returns True, so the obvious ordering would
have opened the panel on any instance without an ADMIN_TOKEN.
Registration input (B-12). It accepted an empty username and a one-character
password while /users/me/change-password demanded 8 — an odd place to be lenient
on a custodial system holding real funds. MIN_PASSWORD_LENGTH moved to
auth/security.py so both share it, and the username is constrained to 3-32 chars
of [A-Za-z0-9_.-]. The IntegrityError handler also distinguishes a username
collision (answers username_taken) from a derivation-index one (retries): a
concurrent duplicate username used to be retried five times and then reported as
derivation_index_conflict, which told the user the wrong thing.
verify_password (B-13) catches VerificationError and InvalidHashError, not just
VerifyMismatchError, so an unparseable stored hash reads as "wrong password"
instead of a 500 — logged as an error, since that one is a data problem.
guida-admin.md gains a table of the audit events worth watching, including
payout_failed, which needs manual intervention.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Round opening (B-09). open_new_round_if_needed now handles the IntegrityError
from ix_rounds_single_active (previous commit) by rolling back and using the
winner's round. Deviation from the plan in BUGS.md, which proposed making the
scheduler the only writer: that would mean the first bet after a cooldown
couldn't open a round, so both callers stay and a bounded retry was added
instead — a conflict where nothing is active yet just means the winner hadn't
committed, and a bet must not fail on that timing. get_active_round also logs
loudly if it ever sees more than one active round rather than silently picking
the newest.
The jackpot (B-11). It was participant_count * the *current* bet_amount_sats,
which overstated the pool (each stored bet is already net of that bet's network
fee) and silently rewrote the advertised jackpot of a round in progress whenever
an operator edited the bet amount. It now sums the participants' stored
bet_amount_sats. The remaining imprecision — the payout tx's own fee, deducted
from the winner's share and unknowable until the payout is built — is documented
in the code rather than promised away, since the comment there claimed exactness.
Payout (B-05, B-18). _trigger_payout is split into read / build+broadcast /
persist, so no DB session is held across a network call (on SQLite that meant
holding the write lock for two unbounded round-trips). That restructuring is also
what makes the error handling placeable: it now catches Exception around the
chain work and writes a payout_failed audit entry, where a malformed fee_address
used to raise EmbitError all the way to the scheduler's catch-all, leaving the
round stuck in paying_out with nothing recorded about why. Automatic payout retry
remains an open gap.
The scheduler also counts "building" participants as in-flight when deciding
whether a round may close, matching the two-phase bet write.
