I started this without any real plan. No research, no market analysis, no "problem statement." I just had an idea - what if a lottery where losing your deposit was literally impossible actually existed? - and started writing code. The idea of Lachesis, the Greek fate who measures each thread, felt like a perfect fit for something that plays with luck without taking anything away.

I'm a DevOps engineer. I work on LACHESIS late at night, on weekends, in whatever time I can find between job, family and sleep. Progress is slow, which is fine. Contract code that handles other people's FLR needs to be written carefully. The security reviews in the commit history were done using local LLM models at 2am. That tells you what kind of project this is.

Why Flare? Flare's FTSO system gives you real on-chain randomness from 100+ independent data providers. No single actor can predict or mess with the result. That's the only foundation on which a fair lottery can actually stand without putting a trusted third party in the middle. Once I understood that, it was obvious where to build.

What this is (and isn't). This is not a startup. I'm not looking for funding or building toward an exit. It's a personal project I built to learn Flare properly and to see if a truly no-loss lottery could work in practice. I put it on mainnet to find out if anyone else finds it interesting. So far so good.

Everything here runs on my own money - the RPC nodes, deployment gas, domain, and the initial seed deposit. No investors, no grants, no DAO. Just my personal card and whatever hours I can spare.
