Chainlink’s random number generation

A major use case for Chainlink is in its random number generator feeds. As it stands, many projects have resorted to KECCAK randoms. Which, arguably, aren’t that random; using hash functions to generate “pseudo-random” outputs.

Inquisitive users have no doubt debated this in the past, and (in my humble opinion,) it isn’t appropriate. Fortunately, Chainlink is here to save the day for many projects.
