In this blog post, we’ll dive into creating a simple Notion widget that displays the latest public randomness from drand (for both the default and quicknet beacons from the League of Entropy network).
The drand community and developer base is expanding rapidly. drand usage is gaining momentum with many applications using it to draw randomness for their systems. While our **slack workspace** is a great place to interact with other developers and the drand core maintainers, code walkthroughs are even better if one wants to gain a holistic view of the system, become familiar with nitty gritty details, and ask questions in real time.
drand is software for running a threshold network that generates publicly verifiable random numbers.
Boy, that's a mouthful.
To mark the launch of user-programmable smart contracts on the Filecoin Virtual Machine (FVM), the drand team is excited to release a three-part blog series on using randomness on the FVM! In this first part, we dive into the prevrandao EVM opcode (the FVM fully supports EVM bytecode!), a sample Solidity contract using it, a UI to interact with it, and some other necessary plumbing to make it all work.
In this blog post, we’ll dive into the fascinating world of public randomness and provide a step-by-step tutorial on how to consume randomness from drand and use it in your applications. Get ready for an exciting journey into the heart of randomness!
