# PLM Lottery

A periodic-round lottery system built on PLM, a Bitcoin-like coin (mainnet).
Each user gets a dedicated server-derived P2WPKH address; they deposit PLM to
that address, place a fixed-cost bet to enter the current round, and when the
round closes a winner is drawn who receives 70% of the prize pool (the
remaining 30% goes to fees).

This is a **custodial** system: private keys are generated and held
server-side, encrypted at rest. See [CLAUDE.md](CLAUDE.md) for the full
architecture, domain decisions, and known gaps before treating this as
production-ready.

## Quick start

```bash
cp .env.example .env               # then fill in the generated secrets, see docs/setup.md
python3 -m venv .venv && source .venv/bin/activate
pip install -e ".[dev]"
PYTHONPATH=. python scripts/generate_master_key.py
alembic upgrade head
uvicorn app.main:app --reload --port 8123
```

Open `http://127.0.0.1:8123/` for the test UI, `http://127.0.0.1:8123/admin`
for the admin dashboard, `http://127.0.0.1:8123/docs` for the interactive API
docs.

Or run the whole stack (app + Caddy reverse proxy with automatic TLS) via
Docker:

```bash
mkdir -p data/db data/keys data/logs
docker compose run --rm app python scripts/generate_master_key.py
docker compose up -d --build
```

See [docs/setup.md](docs/setup.md) and
[docs/running-the-server.md](docs/running-the-server.md) for the full
walkthrough (both workflows, dev vs. production TLS).

## Tech stack

Python (FastAPI, SQLAlchemy async + Alembic, Argon2 + JWT auth), Electrum
protocol for PLM network access (no full node), Docker + Caddy for
deployment. See [CLAUDE.md](CLAUDE.md#tech-stack-mvp) for the complete list
and the reasoning behind each choice.

## Testing

```bash
python -m pytest                    # all tests
python -m pytest tests/unit/test_hd.py   # one file
```

54 unit tests cover HD derivation, PSBT building, the Electrum client, bets,
deposits, withdrawals, the round/draw engine, RBF fee-bumping, and admin
config. No automated integration tests against a live Electrum connection —
mainnet verification so far has been manual (see CLAUDE.md's "Project
status").
