Introduction
A random number generator (RNG) is a device or algorithm that generates a sequence of numbers that are unpredictable and unbiased. In the context of blockchain technology, RNGs are also designed to be transparent. This means that anyone can verify that the numbers generated by the RNG are truly random.
RNGs are a critical component of many applications, especially games and lotteries. In the game industry, RNGs are used to ensure that games are fair and that players have an equal chance of winning. For example, in a slot machine game, an RNG is used to determine the outcome of each spin. Without an RNG, the game would be predictable and players could easily cheat.
Our objective is to design a cohesive RNG strategy for the Oasys chain. Our intention is to make RNG directly accessible to smart contracts, and to provide a random number for every block. We are confident that, by achieving these goals, the RNG from this initiative will become a valuable tool for developers who want to establish equitable and transparent games on the Oasys chain.
To achieve this goal, we have designed our RNG to meet the following requirements: Ready for the Oasys Chain:
The RNGDAO should be compatible with the Oasys chain. This implies its applicability across any blockchain that backs smart contracts and is in sync with the Ethereum virtual machine. Adopting an unified method broadens the RNG's reach, facilitating developers to leverage it across multiple platforms. Additionally, the system is congruent with Oasys's Layer2.
Ready for smart contracts:
The RNG should be directly consumable by smart contracts without any delay. This means that developers can easily integrate our RNG into their smart contracts without the need for additional middleware or other components. By making our RNG directly consumable by smart contracts, we can simplify the development process and make it easier for developers to create fair and transparent games on the blockchain.
Ready for every block:
The RNG should be able to provide random numbers for every block. This means that developers can use our RNG to generate random numbers for a wide range of applications, including games and lotteries. By providing a random number for every block, we can ensure that our RNG is highly scalable and can be used in large-scale applications.
Our RNG is designed to be highly secure and transparent. We use a combination of cryptographic techniques to ensure that the numbers generated by our RNG are truly random and cannot be predicted or manipulated. Our RNG is also designed to be transparent, which means that anyone can verify that the numbers generated are truly random.
By creating a unified approach for generating random numbers on the blockchain, we believe that we can help to create a more fair and transparent gaming industry. We are excited about the potential of our RNG and look forward to seeing it used in a wide range of applications.
Furthermore, this RNGDAO is being developed based on the previously published RANDAO methodology. It's worth noting that while "RANDAO" is often mentioned in terminology, it's used interchangeably with "RNGDAO"; the former represents a methodology, whereas the latter is a service.
