At Kraken, we receive thousands of deposits from customers per day. This test is designed to test your ability to work with a transaction set that could get returned by a blockchain daemon like bitcoind.

The data we work with in this scenario comes from bitcoind’s rpc call listsinceblock. A frequently used approach to detect incoming deposits is to periodically call listsinceblock and process the returned data. This test contains 2 json files that represent the data from 2 separate calls to this endpoint. Your task is to write code that processes those files and detects all valid incoming deposits.

These instructions do not specify every single detail you should take into consideration. This is done on purpose to test your ability to analyze a problem and come up with a reasonable and safe approach. Keep in mind that your code will determine how much money each customer will get. Thoroughness is one of the most important qualities for this role.

Goal: Process transactions and filter them for valid deposits.

Note: A deposit is considered valid when it has at least 6 confirmations.

Known customer addresses are:

• Wesley Crusher: mvd6qFeVkqH6MNAS2Y2cLifbdaX5XUkbZJ
• Leonard McCoy: mmFFG4jqAtw9MoCC88hw5FNfreQWuEHADp
• Jonathan Archer: mzzg8fvHXydKs8j9D2a8t7KpSXpGgAnk4n
• Jadzia Dax: 2N1SP7r92ZZJvYKG2oNtzPwYnzw62up7mTo
• Montgomery Scott: mutrAf4usv3HKNdpLwVD4ow2oLArL6Rez8
• James T. Kirk: miTHhiX3iFhVnAEecLjybxvV5g8mKYTtnM
• Spock: mvcyJMiAcSXKAEsQxbW9TYZ369rsMG6rVV

Build a dockerized Node.js application to process the two transaction sets.

If you're not comfortable with Node.js, feel free to use the language of your choice.

The command docker-compose up MUST:

1. Read all transactions from transactions-1.json and transactions-2.json and store all deposits in a database of your choice.

2. Read deposits from the database that are good to credit to users and print the following 8 lines on stdout:

   Deposited for Wesley Crusher: count=n sum=x.xxxxxxxx
   Deposited for Leonard McCoy: count=n sum=x.xxxxxxxx
   Deposited for Jonathan Archer: count=n sum=x.xxxxxxxx
   Deposited for Jadzia Dax: count=n sum=x.xxxxxxxx
   Deposited for Montgomery Scott: count=n sum=x.xxxxxxxx
   Deposited for James T. Kirk: count=n sum=x.xxxxxxxx
   Deposited for Spock: count=n sum=x.xxxxxxxx
   Deposited without reference: count=n sum=x.xxxxxxxx
   Smallest valid deposit: x.xxxxxxxx
   Largest valid deposit: x.xxxxxxxx

   The numbers in lines 1 - 7 MUST contain the count of valid deposits and their sum for the respective customer.

   The numbers in line 8 MUST be the count and the sum of the valid deposits to addresses that are not associated with a known customer.

   Note: We'll match for these 10 lines with regular expressions. Please stick to this exact template, otherwise it won't be detected.

Compress your source code as zip archive and send us a link where we can download it. Sharing via Dropbox or Google Drive has worked well in the past. Make sure the Dockerfile is on the top level.

Once you clone/extract the repository on your local machine. You wil need to enter the project, which can be done using:

cd path/to/project

# Run app
docker-compose up

If you need to make changes and restart the project, I suggest using:

docker-compose down -v

docker-compose build

docker-compose up
