Separate “accounts” (addresses with labels) to accumulate Jackpots is the right idea. Users buy tickets, bitcoins are moved to the appropriate Jackpot account. When a Jackpot is won, transactions flow out of its account back to whoever won.
Yeah, it is quite obvious. I suffer for over optimization obsession syndrome Smiley I feel that as data flows only inside the application there’s no need to register transactions and put that ‘extra load’ on the system, but quite frankly the extra load is perfectly ignorable, and the transactions help keep everything tidy. Are you planning to do anything on this regard? I’m sure I can find my way around to do it myself, it will just take time, but I don’t want to duplicate any work though.
