The Chainlink Verified Random Function

Explore how Chainlink's Verifiable Random Function (VRF) provides secure and tamper-proof randomness for hybrid smart contracts on Ethereum. Understand the challenges of generating random numbers on-chain and learn the steps to create and fund a Chainlink VRF subscription, enabling your Play-to-Earn games to use verified randomness in gameplay.

Off-chain oracles
