Battles, gifts, carefully

PK battles first; optional gifts only after payment rules and a provider are approved. Payouts stay review-only.

The guardrails behind the room

Choose the media layer

Evaluate LiveKit Cloud first; Agora and Amazon IVS remain alternatives. A WebRTC/SDK layer, room manager, real-time messaging, database, permissions and safety tools are also needed. Capacity, quotas, cost and FriendNest testing need review.

Keep control server-side

Future room tokens must be short-lived and issued only after the signed-in user and room state are checked. Provider secrets stay off the browser.

No emails in provider room names or identities.

Schema is a draft

Rooms, participants, comments, moderation, bans, battles, votes, gifts, wallet units and review-only payout requests are proposed—not applied.

Draft states: rooms scheduled/live/ended/cancelled; participants requested/invited/joined/left/removed; comments visible/hidden/removed; battles scheduled/active/completed/cancelled. Check `users.id` and MySQL version against a production backup first.

Money stays out of this preview. Wallet ledger units are not cash or an exchange rate. No card or bank details belong in the draft. Gift, payout and webhook flows require review before any payment execution.

View proposed gift, wallet and payout states

Gift transactions: pending, settled, refunded or failed. Each transaction and wallet ledger leg needs an idempotency key. Wallet types are viewer_coins and creator_earnings_units; signed ledger units are not cash and define no exchange rate.

Payout requests: requested, under review, approved, paid, rejected or cancelled. This draft supports review records only; it does not authorize automatic transfers or collect bank/card details.

Provider events: retain only a verified provider event ID and payload hash, with received, processed or failed status—not raw webhook payloads. These are unapplied draft rules.

Keeping the current rules visible

The public Live page currently states a 1,000-follower eligibility threshold and says production broadcasting is unavailable until a compliant streaming provider is connected.
