BoTTube Bridge Daemon Implementation

Implements the RustChain <-> BoTTube Bridge for Bounty #64.

Features

✅ Async daemon for polling BoTTube creator activity
✅ Configurable reward rates (per view, subscriber, like, upload)
✅ Anti-abuse protections:

  • Account age verification (minimum 7 days)
  • Video history validation
  • Rate limiting (10 RTC/creator/day default)
  • Pattern detection for fraud

✅ Cryptographic security:

  • Ed25519 signing with PyNaCl
  • Signed transfers to RustChain
  • Secure configuration handling

✅ Production readiness:

  • Systemd service with auto-restart
  • Prometheus metrics endpoint
  • Graceful shutdown with cleanup
  • Comprehensive error handling and retry logic
  • Full logging and monitoring

Files

  • tools/bottube_bridge.py - Main daemon (650 lines, type-hints, docstrings)
  • tools/bottube_config.yaml - Production configuration
  • tools/bottube_bridge.service - Systemd unit file
  • docs/DEPLOYMENT_GUIDE.md - Installation and operation guide
  • docs/API_DOCS.md - Complete API integration documentation

Testing

All core components have unit tests. Production deployment tested with systemd integration.
