Not currently open source, no. Even if it was, is there a way to verify that the game is running the code as published? As Emily mentioned, the game is verifiable, in that the block winner (ticket number) is chosen deterministically by the actual bitcoin block hash (which can be verified in the game). Players are always allotted ticket numbers after being sorted by pubkey, so there is no variation in that sense (also verifiable in the game). Some trust is required in that the payouts will be made. But if they weren't, then we'd have 0 players pretty quickly. Thanks for your interest 💚
