💻 What is powloot?

powloot is a game based on solving computer puzzles quickly. The puzzles come from a server that verifies your work. The game has many tracks to race on. You can compete alone or with others. Rewards are shared from a common pool.

The backend runs on Node.js with Express and stores information with SQLite. The frontend is a static webpage. It uses WebSocket to show live status updates.

⚙️ Features of powloot

• Multiple tracks run at the same time. Each track only has one active round.
• Challenges are given based on your IP address. Only one challenge can be active per IP.
• When you finish a challenge, the system closes that round, gives rewards, keeps score, and starts the next round.
• The reward pool refills over time, tracked in milliseconds.
• The system limits how often you can submit answers. This protects from flooding.
• You can see live power and status updates in the game.
• Some heavy tasks run faster using WebAssembly.
• Supports local withdrawal requests and quick code redemption.
• Optionally, data can be saved on a remote MySQL database.
