Laravel Backend Stabilization & Financial System Fix — Direct Developer Only (No Agencies)

This is NOT a new development project.

This is a targeted backend stabilization and correction project based on a full production audit.

The system is already built (Laravel + MySQL + Redis), but critical issues were identified during automated validation.

The objective is to fix specific failing modules and ensure the system becomes production-ready.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
CURRENT SYSTEM STATUS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

A full backend validation was executed directly in production.

Critical failures identified:

- Financial inconsistency (token purchases without ledger entries)
- Escrow system incomplete (missing required columns and lifecycle)
- Subscription system not functional (missing structure and logic)
- Boost system incomplete (missing required fields and ranking logic)
- Database structure inconsistent with application logic
- Security vulnerabilities (admin routes without authentication)
- No confirmed revenue split implementation
- Core flows failing during simulation

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
SCOPE OF WORK
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

The developer must FIX and VALIDATE the following modules:

1. Ledger Integrity
- Ensure every financial transaction generates ledger entries
- Enforce append-only ledger logic
- Eliminate direct balance mutation

2. Escrow Lifecycle
- Implement full lifecycle:
created → active → completed → released/refunded
- Ensure atomic transactions
- Guarantee no double settlement

3. Token Purchase Flow
- Ensure token purchases generate:
- ledger entries
- correct balance updates
- Validate consistency between payments and ledger

4. Subscription System
- Fix database structure
- Implement recurring logic
- Validate activation, renewal, expiration, cancellation

5. Boost System
- Fix database structure (user_id, amount, etc.)
- Implement ranking priority logic
- Implement expiration handling

6. Database Alignment
- Fix missing columns:
- escrows: user_id, amount, status
- subscriptions: user_id
- Ensure schema matches backend logic

7. Security Fixes
- Protect all admin routes with authentication middleware
- Ensure no financial endpoints are publicly accessible

8. Revenue Split
- Implement or validate platform/streamer commission logic
- Ensure consistency across all financial operations

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
MANDATORY DELIVERABLES
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

1. End-to-end video demonstration (REQUIRED)
Must show:
- Token purchase
- Ledger entry generation
- Escrow lifecycle
- Subscription working
- Boost working
- Admin reflecting correct data

2. Production validation
All flows must run successfully on production server.

3. Code delivery
- Clean, structured commits
- No temporary fixes
- No hardcoded logic

4. Final validation report
System must pass validation without critical failures.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
IMPORTANT
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

- This is a FIXING and VALIDATION project, not a redesign
- Do NOT propose rewriting the system
- Do NOT send generic proposals
- Only apply if you have real experience with:
- Laravel financial systems
- payment flows (Stripe or similar)
- escrow logic
- production debugging

Timeline: 5 a 7 days
