Wallets and agent authority
HEIST vault wallets are agent-controlled business wallets, not trustless escrows.
The wallet model
Each token gets a Privy Solana wallet controlled by the HEIST backend on behalf of its guardian. The guardian's concession directly authorizes payouts from it.
Execution controls
- One accepted jackpot award per funded round.
- Owed SOL is booked as payable and never re-spent.
- Each payment has a unique operation id; duplicates are rejected.
- Signatures are recorded before broadcast; retries only after confirmed failure or expiry.
- A small balance is kept for network fees.
These controls check funding and execution. They never second-guess whether the player deserved to win.
