We’re excited to announce that LitLab Games — the web3 publisher and studio company — has integrated Chainlink Verifiable Random Function (VRF) on BNB Chain mainnet through JoePegs collaboration. By integrating the industry-leading decentralized oracle network, we now have access to a tamper-proof and auditable source of randomness needed to randomize the minting mechanism for the first INO of CyberTitans: “Origins”.

Origins Collection (from LitLab Games) will be released on March 23rd in joepegs.com

Ultimately this creates a more exciting and transparent user experience, as users can be sure that the OGs and HYBRID NFTs in this first collection will 100% be randomized and luck will guide your way. With the first INO “Origins”, gamers will have different utilities inside CyberTitans’ ecosystem, from getting real digital assets in-game to priority for future tournaments and events.

In order to comply 100% with the distribution of the different NFTs based on lucky draws, we need access to a secure random number generator (RNG) that any user could independently audit. However, RNG solutions for smart contracts require several security considerations to prevent manipulation and ensure system integrity. For instance, RNG solutions derived from blockchain data like block hashes can be exploited by miners/validators, while off-chain RNG solutions derived from off-chain APIs are opaque and don’t provide users with definitive proof about the integrity of the process.

After reviewing various solutions, we selected Chainlink VRF because it’s based on cutting-edge academic research, supported by a time-tested oracle network, and secured through the generation and on-chain verification of cryptographic proofs that prove the integrity of each random number supplied to smart contracts.

Chainlink VRF works by combining block data that is still unknown when the request is made with the oracle node’s pre-committed private key to generate both a random number and a cryptographic proof. The JoePegs’ smart contract will only accept the random number input if it has a valid cryptographic proof, and the cryptographic proof can only be generated if the VRF process is tamper-proof. This provides our users with automated and verifiable assurances directly on-chain that minting in both presale or public sale is probably fair and was not tampered with by the oracle, outside entities, or the LitLab team.

For future random minting collection, we will be using Chainlink, as this first roll is 500/5000, we will keep using VRF as our RNG and keep building under the standards of transparency.

“We are using both on-chain and off-chain transactions, but when we speak about transparency for user, Chainlink VRF becomes the most trustable source” –Danyil Shatko, CEO of LitLab Games
