What We Shipped

   Consolidated To One Series

   • The venue now runs a single five minute BTC round instead of three concurrent series.
   • A parimutuel rewards concentrated liquidity, and thin pools give worse odds to everyone in them.
   • The one minute and fifteen minute series stopped running. More durations return once depth supports them.

   Security Hardening Pass

   • Revoked raw table access for player and waitlist records and moved every read behind a checked path.
   • Pinned the search path on database functions and tightened row level policies on positions.
   • No anonymous write access remains anywhere in the venue.

   Public Read Only API And Docs

   • Published read only endpoints for the current round, recent rounds, the leaderboard and venue stats.
   • Added a documentation page with request and response shapes for each endpoint.
   • The API exposes venue state only. It accepts no writes.

   Venue Stats Page

   • Added a public page for rounds settled, pool sizes and participation, read from the same source the venue settles against.
   • Every simulated figure carries a demo label so nothing reads as production volume.

   Points Venue And Leaderboard

   • Moved round state and settlement to the server so the outcome no longer depends on the browser.
   • Added free points balances, a public leaderboard and per wallet position history.
   • Points have no cash value and cannot be withdrawn or exchanged.

   05

   Three Concurrent Durations

   • Split the venue into three concurrent series: one minute, five minutes and fifteen minutes.
   • Each series runs its own pools, its own cadence and its own settlement, with five minutes as the default.

   Removed The Early Staking Bonus

   • Removed the weighting that paid early stakes more than late stakes.
   • It rewarded timing rather than judgement and made payouts harder to verify by hand.
   • Payouts are now plain pro rata: stake, plus a share of the losing pool in proportion to stake, after the published rake.

    03

    Five Source Median And A Published Void Rule

    • Settlement reads the median of five exchange direct sources: Binance, Coinbase, Kraken, Bitstamp and OKX.
    • At least two must respond and agree inside the published tolerance, or the round voids with full refunds and zero rake.

    02

    Overlapping Rounds And Strike At Lock

    • Rounds now overlap, so one round runs live against its strike while the next is already taking stakes.
    • The strike is read at the moment staking closes, so nobody stakes with the strike in hand.

    Terminal Rebuild

    • Rebuilt the round page as a trading terminal with a real chart, live odds on the stake buttons and a depth ladder.
    • Added the activity feed, pool composition, session stats, a running ledger and keyboard shortcuts.

The venue runs on free points today. Points have no cash value.
