Hand out loot to a thousand players

Minting per drop makes your issuer account a global write lock. Publish one root instead, and let each player write their own claim.

Status: M1 of eleven. The SDK is real and runs end to end. The chain underneath it is an in-memory mock — there is no public network yet, and nothing anywhere holds value.

The naive version works until it is used. One account has one chain, so a thousand rewards is a thousand sequential writes on your issuer, and the queue behind them is the game.

The fix moves the signature to the player. The issuer publishes one block containing a root that commits to the whole batch; each player is handed a proof and writes their own claim, from their own account, with no contention between them.

const drop = await gems.commit([
  { to: playerA, amount: 500 },
  { to: playerB, amount: 120 },
  // ...thousands more
])

send(playerA, drop.proofFor(playerA))   // plain JSON, hand it over however you like

await kei.claims.add(bundle)

// Claiming happens in the background. A forged proof, a forged amount, or a
// second claim from the same account is rejected by the ledger, not the SDK.

When a batch is old, close it: await gems.close(drop.root). Closed roots take no further claims and become prunable. Nothing expires on a timer — this chain has no clock, deliberately.
