This project implements a decentralized lottery smart contract that allows players to enter a raffle and have a chance to win the accumulated prize pool. The lottery is fully on-chain, with no centralized authority controlling the process. The winner is randomly selected using a secure, verifiable method.
The entire lottery process, from accepting entries to selecting the winner, is handled by a smart contract deployed on the blockchain. There is no central party controlling the lottery.
The winning number is generated in a transparent, verifiable way using a combination of on-chain and off-chain random sources to ensure fairness.
Players can independently verify that the winner selection process is fair and unbiased.
Players can easily enter the lottery by sending the required entry fee to the smart contract.
Once the winner is determined, the prize is automatically transferred to their wallet, eliminating the need for manual payouts.
Players send the required entry fee to the smart contract to participate in the lottery.
The smart contract uses a combination of on-chain and off-chain random sources to generate a secure, verifiable random number.
The smart contract selects the winner by comparing the generated random number to the ticket numbers.
The winning player's wallet receives the accumulated prize pool.
To use the decentralized lottery smart contract, follow these steps:
Deploy the provided Solidity smart contract to your preferred blockchain network.
Send the desired amount of funds to the smart contract's address to build up the prize pool.
Send the required entry fee to the smart contract's address to participate in the lottery.
The smart contract will periodically select a winner using the secure random number generation process.
The winning player can claim their prize by interacting with the smart contract.
The smart contract is written in Solidity and follows best practices for security and gas optimization. It uses a combination of on-chain and off-chain random sources, including the block timestamp and a third-party random number service, to generate the winning number in a verifiable way. The contract's source code and deployment instructions are available on GitHub.
