Roulette

Our Roulette operates on a global Provably Fair system utilizing the EOS blockchain. This means every spin is generated from a decentralized source of entropy that cannot be controlled or predicted by anyone.

How It Works
  1. The Seed: Before each round begins, we generate a secure Server Seed. We verify this by displaying its hashed version to all users immediately. This ensures we cannot tamper with the seed after bets are placed.
  2. The Block: At the start of the round, we designate a future EOS Block Number that will determine the result. Because this block has not yet been mined, its hash is unknown.
  3. The Spin: Once the betting timer ends and the designated block is mined, we combine the Server Seed and the EOS Block Hash to calculate the winning color and number.
Input Parameters

The result is calculated by hashing the combination of the following inputs:

  • Server Seed: A randomly generated 32-byte value.
  • EOS Block Hash: The unique identifier of the EOS block mined at the designated time.

Verify It Yourself
You don't have to take our word for it. Use the verification tool below with the data from any round to confirm that the result was generated fairly.
