🔍 Behind the Scenes: How Scroll Enabled Open Source VRF be Deployable on All EVMs
A fully open-source Verifiable Random Function (VRF) is now deployable on ALL EVM chains. This tool was made possible through Scroll's backing of the Anyrand team.
Take a look of how it all came together 👇
1️⃣ The VRF Challenge
VRF = unmanipulatable, secure and provable randomness.
Sounds simple, right?
Not quite. EVM chains were missing out on a tool like drand, due to the BLS12-381 curve incompatibility.
For Scroll, the need for a solution was even greater.
As a rollup, Scroll's deterministic nature meant traditional randomness sources weren't viable. drand offered a solution, independent of block hashes. Scroll saw this opportunity and stepped in.
