martbost f18ef592fa Make announce-once survive a deploy, not just a restart
Instrumenting every send found the real shape of this: the live process
sends each payout exactly once, to each feed, with no duplicate to
suppress. So the second copy members were seeing never came from the
running container — it came from ANOTHER one.

During a deploy the outgoing container and the incoming one are both alive
for a moment, and both tail the chain. The announce-once record was held
in memory, so each had its own copy and each announced the same payout,
about a poll interval apart. That matches exactly what the proof channel
showed: identical lines a minute apart, and more of them today because I
deployed four times in half an hour.

The record now lives in its own small file, read fresh and written
atomically on every announcement, so whichever process gets there first is
visible to the other. It also closes the original hole, where the
announcement went out before the state recording it was flushed at the end
of a tick.

Events are a few an hour, so a small read and write per event costs
nothing.

RM Circle Premium — Crypto Team Build Sponsor Router

A small deployable Node/Express app with:

  • / — evergreen advertising/bridge page
  • /start — dynamic onboarding page with the current team sponsor
  • /admin — password-protected sponsor queue manager
  • JSON-file persistence suitable for a Docker volume

Core workflow

  1. Traffic lands on the evergreen bridge page.
  2. Visitors click Get Started.
  3. /start reads the active sponsor from the server and builds the RM Circle referral link dynamically.
  4. In /admin, increment a sponsor's direct count as joins are verified.
  5. When a sponsor reaches 2, click Qualified.
  6. The next waiting sponsor becomes active immediately—no HTML or ad changes required.

Default seeded queue

The seed data reflects the working Crypto Team Build priority list at build time:

  1. ID 30 — Orlando (active)
  2. ID 36 — Mad Dog
  3. ID 35 — Michael Camire
  4. ID 32 — Melissa
  5. ID 34 — Janie

You can change, reorder, add, or delete sponsors in /admin.

Local run

cp .env.example .env
# edit .env and set a strong ADMIN_PASSWORD + SESSION_SECRET
set -a && . ./.env && set +a
npm start

Open:

  • http://localhost:3000/
  • http://localhost:3000/start
  • http://localhost:3000/admin

Docker / Coolify

This project includes a zero-dependency Node server, Dockerfile, and docker-compose.yml. No npm package download is required.

Coolify recommendation

  1. Create a new application from this source/repository.
  2. Use the Dockerfile or Compose deployment.
  3. Add environment variables:
    • ADMIN_PASSWORD — strong unique password
    • SESSION_SECRET — long random string
    • NODE_ENV=production
    • DATA_DIR=/app/data
  4. Persist /app/data using a volume.
  5. Point your domain/subdomain at port 3000 through Coolify's normal proxy/domain configuration.
  6. Open /admin, sign in, and verify the queue before sending traffic.

Sponsor referral URL

The default base is:

https://app.thermcircle.com?ref=

The app appends the current sponsor ID, for example:

https://app.thermcircle.com?ref=30

Change the base URL at any time in Admin → Public Page Settings without editing code.

Important operational behavior

The app intentionally does not auto-qualify sponsors based on clicks or blockchain activity. A team admin verifies the actual placement and clicks Qualified. This prevents an ad click or abandoned transaction from rotating the sponsor queue incorrectly.

Safety and compliance notes

The public pages include risk language, avoid guaranteed-income claims, and remind users never to disclose a MetaMask Secret Recovery Phrase. The onboarding page points to the official MetaMask website and identifies Polygon Mainnet as chain ID 137 with POL as the native gas token.

This app does not custody crypto, request wallet seed phrases, execute transactions, or store private keys.
