Positions live in sessionStorage and are lost when the tab closes #205
Description
Problem
frontend/script.js keeps the user's positions in memory and mirrors them to sessionStorage
(POSITION_STORAGE_KEY, line ~20). Three consequences follow:
- They vanish.
sessionStorageis cleared when the tab closes. A confirmed on-chain bet
disappears from the dashboard even though it is permanently recorded on Stellar. - They do not follow the user. Open the site in another browser, or on a phone, and the
position history is empty. - They can lie. The list is whatever the browser wrote locally, never reconciled against the
chain. A transaction that succeeded on chain but failed to write locally is invisible, and a
stale local entry is never corrected.
The contract exposes the real data: get_bet, get_bet_gross, get_position,
get_user_bet_count, get_market_bettors_page.
Acceptance criteria
- Positions are reconstructed from chain state on load, keyed by the connected address
- Reconnecting the same wallet in a fresh browser shows the same positions
- Local storage is a cache for responsiveness only, never the source of truth
- Each position shows stake, side, market status, and payout state from the contract
- Disconnecting clears the view; connecting a different wallet loads that address's positions
Why this is critical
Users cannot reliably see what they own. Combined with the missing claim flow, someone can stake
XLM and end up with no record in the UI that they ever did.

I'd like to take this issue on!
I can resolve this bug by converting position tracking in SPulse-Org / SPulse from ephemeral sessionStorage to live on-chain reconciliation.
I will update frontend/script.js to query the contract (get_position, get_bet, get_user_bet_count) upon wallet connection, making the Stellar ledger the single source of truth. Local storage will serve purely as an optimistic cache layer for fast initial renders, which will immediately re-sync with live chain state. Position views will display exact stake sizes, YES/NO side allocations, market statuses, and claimable payouts directly from the contract, updating dynamically when switching or disconnecting wallets.
I will verify the fix by placing bets, opening fresh browser tabs/incognito windows, reconnecting the wallet, and verifying that all historical positions and payout statuses render accurately from chain state. PR ready in 1 day. Closes #205.
