wBOB Bridge

Backed By Nothing, Powered By Everything.

A 1:1 lock-and-mint bridge between Dobbscoin (BOB) — the official cryptocurrency of the Church of the SubGenius, scrypt-PoW since January 2014 — and Wrapped Dobbscoin (wBOB) on Gnosis Chain.

When (BOB) is locked on the Dobbscoin L1, wBOB is minted on Gnosis at an 8-decimal 1:1 ratio. When wBOB is burned on Gnosis, native (BOB) is released back to a Dobbscoin address. The book balances. "Bob" is satisfied. Slack increases.

What this repo is

A monorepo for the bridge. Each subdirectory is its own service:

contracts/   Foundry — WBob ERC-20 + BridgeController        (separate repo: dobbscoin/wbob-contracts)
backend/     TypeScript — Bridge API, FSM, Postgres, payouts
watcher/     TypeScript — Dobbscoin chain observer (3 instances, 3-of-5)
portal/      Next.js — user-facing deposit / trade / withdraw UI
shared/      TypeScript — shared types (FSM states, MintAuthorization, etc.)
infra/       Docker Compose, systemd units, nginx vhosts
ops/         Tokenlist submissions, logos, deployment notes
docs/        Whitepaper

Trust model — Tier B, "Don't Trust, Verify, but Also Pray"

The bridge is not trust-minimized. It is trust-halved. Specifically:

• 3-of-5 threshold mints. Five independent watcher EOAs observe the Dobbscoin chain. After a deposit reaches finality (6 confirmations on Dobbscoin, ~12 minutes), each watcher signs an EIP-712 typed MintAuthorization. When 3 of 5 signatures accumulate, anyone can call executeMint() and the wBOB is minted. No watcher can mint alone. No watcher can stop a mint that has 3 signatures.
• Gnosis Safe admin. DEFAULT_ADMIN_ROLE on the contracts is held by a Safe. Pause, role changes, signer rotation all require Safe-quorum approval. No hot wallet ever holds admin.
• Constrained automation module. A Safe module (BridgeExecutorModule) permits the automated executor to call only: executeMint, pause, unpause. It cannot rotate keys, change thresholds, or move admin. Even the bridge's own automation is on a short leash.
• Replay protection. processedDeposits[depositId] is set on first mint and never cleared. Even if every signer key were compromised, past deposits cannot be replayed.

In SubGenius register: the Conspiracy assumes you'll trust them. (BOB) assumes you won't. wBOB splits the difference — trust 3 strangers out of 5, supervised by a Safe, watched by an immutable contract.

Audit status: unaudited. Foundry test suite passes (unit + 1000-run fuzz + invariant runs at depth 100). Third-party audit is a planned follow-up. NOT FINANCIAL ADVISORS. NOT FINANCIAL ADVICE.

Trading wBOB

Venue	URL
CoW Swap (Gnosis)	https://swap.cow.fi/#/100/swap/wBOB/WXDAI
Oku Trade (Gnosis)	https://oku.trade/swap?inputChain=gnosis

Quote currency is WXDAI (Wrapped xDai, USD-pegged stablecoin on Gnosis). Because wBOB is 1:1 redeemable for native (BOB) through the bridge, the WXDAI/wBOB pair is the canonical USD-equivalent price reference for (BOB) itself.

(BOB) is not for sale. It is for trade. Don't say "buy" — say "trade for". Don't say "sell" — say "trade away".

Quickstart — running the stack locally

Each service has its own README with full env-var docs. The 60-second tour:

# 1. Bring up Postgres + the watcher Dobbscoin node (Docker)
cd infra && docker compose up -d

# 2. Backend API (port 13013 — yes, it spells BOB)
cd backend && npm install && npm run migrate && npm run dev

# 3. Watcher (one instance per signer — prod runs 3 on independent hosts)
cd watcher && npm install && npm run dev

# 4. Portal (Next.js, port 3000)
cd portal && npm install && npm run dev

For the contract suite, see dobbscoin/wbob-contracts.

The underlying chain — Dobbscoin (BOB)

(BOB) is a Bitcoin Core 0.10 fork from January 2014. Genesis was struck on Coingen.io, the parameter-form altcoin generator opened that month by Matt "BlueMatt" Corallo. The fork shipped scrypt PoW, P2PKH/P2SH addresses, and a stock halving curve — all the chain-specific consensus modifications (Kimoto Gravity Well at block 13,579, DigiShield at 31,597, 2-minute target at 68,425, flat 1.5-(BOB)/block forever cap at 951,753) were added later by community devs.

Property	Value
PoW	scrypt
Block target	2 minutes (since block 68,425)
Difficulty retarget	KGW + DigiShield hybrid, every block
Subsidy	1.5 (BOB) / block forever (since block 951,753) — mildly inflationary by design
Max supply	No hard cap. A MAX_MONEY sanity ceiling of 10B exists, but is not a circulating-supply cap. The "21M cap" is a marketing line from 2014 that has never been true since the flat-subsidy transition.
Genesis	January 2014

Disclaimers

This bridge is unaudited as of this writing. The contracts have a thorough Foundry test suite, but no third-party security audit has been completed yet. Trade accordingly.

The Church of the SubGenius is a parody religion. (BOB) is a cryptocurrency that has been continuously operating since 2014. The distinction matters in some legal jurisdictions and not at all in others. Consult your shaman, accountant, and/or "Bob" before participating.

NOT FINANCIAL ADVISORS. NOT FINANCIAL ADVICE.
