Chainlink VRF Integration by Earn Alliance Boosts Genesis NFT Mint for Last Remains
Blockchain
Announcement of Integration
The integration of Chainlink’s Verifiable Random Function (VRF) by Earn Alliance, a Web3 gaming community and service provider, has been officially announced. This integration took place on Polygon’s mainnet. Leveraging Chainlink’s industry-leading decentralized oracle network provides Earn Alliance with a secure and verifiable source of randomness, which is critical for ensuring a fair Genesis NFT mint for Last Remains – a distinctive battle royale game set in a zombie-ridden, post-apocalyptic universe. This process enhances user engagement by offering assurances of genuine fairness in the random selection involved in the Genesis NFT mint.
Earn Alliance’s Comprehensive Services
Earn Alliance offers a comprehensive suite of services to Web3 games, including building communities, marketing NFT launches, and player onboarding. These services are essential to connect Web3 games with their player base and include:
Community: The Alliance facilitates player discovery of new games, networking within communities, skills-based rewards, minting of soul-bound badges, and creation of verified game profiles.
Marketplace: The forthcoming GG Exchange will be a marketplace for NFT transactions related to Earn Alliance-backed games and players, fostering cross-game awareness and serving as a single platform for NFT transactions.
Directory and The Wall: Earn Alliance’s Game Directory presents players with a central hub for accessing and exploring an array of Web3 games and content.
Gamified Mints: Regular game mints are simplified with the Rocket Launcher, which showcases anticipated mints and will soon collate game mints from other platforms.
The Launch of Last Remains
Alongside these services, Earn Alliance is keenly focused on rectifying the prevalent issue of less-than-enthralling Web3 games in the current market, with the launch of Last Remains. Last Remains reimagines the battle royale genre in a zombie-infested, post-apocalyptic setting, where strategic stealth is as valuable as marksmanship. Furthermore, the game employs progressive economics to prioritize players – half of all game revenues will be redistributed to proficient players via esports tournaments.
The Need for Reliable Random Number Generator (RNG)
In preparation for the upcoming Genesis NFT open mint on May 16th, a reliable random number generator (RNG) was required – one that players could independently verify to ensure the minting process was immune to tampering. Yet, designing RNG solutions for smart contracts necessitates robust security measures to prevent manipulation and uphold system integrity. For instance, RNG solutions based on blockchain data, like block hashes, are susceptible to exploitation by miners or validators, while off-chain RNG solutions derived from off-chain APIs lack transparency and don’t provide definitive integrity proof.
Selection of Chainlink VRF
Upon evaluation of various solutions, Chainlink VRF was selected due to its grounding in advanced academic research, its support by a reliable oracle network, and its security ensured by the generation and on-chain validation of cryptographic proofs, confirming the integrity of each random number supplied to smart contracts.
How Chainlink VRF Operates
Chainlink VRF operates by combining yet-to-be-known block data at the time of request with the oracle node’s pre-committed private key, generating both a random number and a cryptographic proof. The Last Remains Genesis NFT minting smart contract will accept the random number input only if it bears a valid cryptographic proof, which can only be produced if the VRF process is secure. This guarantees our users with on-chain, automated, and verifiable assurances that the NFT mint’s randomness is demonstrably fair and untampered with by the oracle, external entities, or the Earn Alliance team.
“Chainlink VRF addresses the issue of on-chain randomness, historically manipulated by validators or insiders. It balances the odds between game creators and players by offering unmatched transparency and fairness in the NFT mint process. It’s an essential tool to attract players to our NFT mint,” commented Joseph “Coop” Cooper, Founder of Earn Alliance. He further mentioned, “Soon, Earn Alliance will provide a comprehensive smart contract-free mint service for all game developers to optionally choose Chainlink for on-chain randomness transparency for their gaming communities.”
Conclusion: Shaping the Future of Web3 Gaming
In conclusion, the integration of Chainlink’s VRF by Earn Alliance underscores the company’s commitment to building a secure, fair, and engaging gaming ecosystem. By ensuring a transparent and tamper-proof Genesis NFT mint for Last Remains, Earn Alliance is not only enriching user experience but also setting new standards in the Web3 gaming industry. Joseph “Coop” Cooper’s vision of offering a comprehensive smart contract-free mint service in the near future is indicative of Earn Alliance’s ambition to empower game developers with more choice and control over their game economies. As the realm of Web3 gaming continues to evolve, partnerships like these, which focus on fair play, transparency, and the user experience, will likely play a vital role in shaping the industry’s trajectory.
