Work timestamping gets a tiny Solidity contract deployed to BNB Smart Chain Testnet; filmmakers see a 'verified onchain' badge with the live contract address and a one-tap BscScan link.

CONCEPT
Timestamp animation works to prove creation dates and prevent IP disputes with onchain records.
Discipline: Filmmaking & Animation (work timestamping).
Onchain primitive: BNB smart contract. Why this primitive: BNB smart contracts create immutable, verifiable proof of creation time.
5-CREDIT BUDGET (HARD LIMIT):
- ONE single-page app. No router, no Lovable Cloud, no database, no auth flows beyond Privy drop-in.
- ONE Solidity contract, <=80 lines, deployed to BSC Testnet, verified on BscScan.
- Privy is the auth + embedded-wallet layer (Google login, wallet auto-provisioned).
- Gas is USER-PAID. There is NO sponsorship on BSC Testnet in this template — the user needs a small tBNB balance from the faucet. Surface a "Get tBNB" faucet link in the UI.
- Pinata/IPFS only if the idea genuinely needs to store a file or metadata.
- At most ONE AI call per user action (use Lovable AI Gateway with LOVABLE_API_KEY if AI is part of the idea).
- Skip tests, skip CI, skip docs pages. Ship the demo, nothing else.
STACK
- React + Vite single page (the index route).
- SSR-safe Privy mount is mandatory. Never import @privy-io/react-auth at
module scope of a route file — it crashes SSR. Use
lazy(() => import('./privy-client-entry')) inside <ClientOnly> + <Suspense>,
and put <PrivyProvider> only inside privy-client-entry.tsx.
- PrivyProvider config uses viem's `bscTestnet` chain (chainId 97):
import { bscTestnet } from 'viem/chains';
<PrivyProvider appId={import.meta.env.VITE_PRIVY_APP_ID}
config={{ loginMethods:['google','email'],
embeddedWallets:{ ethereum:{ createOnLogin:'users-without-wallets' } },
defaultChain: bscTestnet,
supportedChains: [bscTestnet],
appearance:{ theme:'dark' } }}>
- Read the embedded wallet from useWallets, not user.wallet:
const embedded = wallets.find(w => w.walletClientType === 'privy');
- Every send goes through Privy `useSendTransaction` with `chainId: 97` and
`address` (NO `sponsor` — BSC Testnet is user-paid in this template):
await sendTransaction(
{ to, data, chainId: 97 },
{ address: embedded.address }
);
- Do NOT pass uiOptions:{ showWalletUIs:false } — it aborts with
"signal is aborted without reason". The approval sheet is expected on
the embedded-EOA path; the user pays a tiny tBNB fee.
- Do NOT add ZeroDev / SmartWalletsProvider / a paymaster URL. This
template is intentionally user-paid on BSC Testnet.
- USER FUNDING: the embedded wallet needs a small tBNB balance. Show a
"Get tBNB" link next to the connect button pointing at
https://www.bnbchain.org/en/testnet-faucet. Catch "insufficient funds"
errors and re-surface the faucet link inline.
- Hardhat in /contracts (kept outside the Vite bundle). Install
`@nomicfoundation/hardhat-toolbox` AND `@nomicfoundation/hardhat-verify@latest`
(>=3.x — older versions still hit Etherscan v1 and fail with
"You are using a deprecated V1 endpoint, switch to Etherscan API V2").
- hardhat.config.cjs uses the Etherscan v2 single-key shape with a
customChains entry pointing v2 at BscScan (chainid=97):
require("@nomicfoundation/hardhat-toolbox");
require("@nomicfoundation/hardhat-verify");
module.exports = {
solidity: { version: "0.8.24", settings: { optimizer: { enabled: true, runs: 200 } } },
networks: { bscTestnet: {
url: process.env.BSC_TESTNET_RPC_URL || "https://data-seed-prebsc-1-s1.bnbchain.org:8545",
accounts: [process.env.METAMASK_PRIVATE_KEY.startsWith("0x")
? process.env.METAMASK_PRIVATE_KEY : "0x" + process.env.METAMASK_PRIVATE_KEY],
chainId: 97,
} },
etherscan: {
apiKey: process.env.BSCSCAN_API_KEY,
customChains: [{
network: "bscTestnet",
chainId: 97,
urls: {
apiURL: "https://api.etherscan.io/v2/api?chainid=97",
browserURL: "https://testnet.bscscan.com",
},
}],
},
sourcify: { enabled: false },
};
- Deploy: `npx hardhat run scripts/deploy.cjs --network bscTestnet`.
- Verify: `npx hardhat verify --network bscTestnet <address>` — verified source
appears at `https://testnet.bscscan.com/address/<address>#code`.
- Frontend reads: create a viem public client on bscTestnet using the same RPC —
`createPublicClient({ chain: bscTestnet, transport: http(import.meta.env.VITE_BSC_TESTNET_RPC_URL) })`.
Cap `getLogs` ranges to `fromBlock = head - 9000n`; the public RPC rate-limits wider windows.
- Write the deployed address to `src/data/contract.json` so the UI links to
`https://testnet.bscscan.com/address/<address>`.

USER FLOW
1. Land on page -> 'Sign in with Google' (Privy) -> embedded wallet auto-provisioned on BSC Testnet.
2. Prompt user to fund with tBNB (faucet link) if balance is zero.
3. User performs a work timestamping action; the app calls `log(payload)` on the BSC Testnet contract via Privy `useSendTransaction` and shows the BscScan link as proof. If the user has no tBNB, show a faucet link.
4. Footer renders: "Built during the Creative AI & Quantum Hackathon organised by StreetKode Fam during Indian Krump Festival 14"
