How do I verify a crypto dice roll is fair?
Verifying a crypto dice roll involves these steps: Step 1 — Note the server seed hash: Before playing, the platform shows you a hashed version of the server seed. Save this hash. Step 2 — Set your client seed: Use the default random seed or enter your own custom seed. Step 3 — Play and record: Play your dice games normally. Note the nonce (bet number) for any rolls you want to verify. Step 4 — Reveal server seed: Go to fairness settings and rotate your server seed. This reveals the previous server seed while generating a new one. Step 5 — Verify the hash: Hash the revealed server seed with SHA-256. Compare it to the hash you saved in Step 1. They must match exactly. Step 6 — Verify the roll: Use the revealed server seed, your client seed, and the nonce. Apply HMAC-SHA512 to generate the result. Compare with the actual roll result — they must match. Verification tools: Stake.com built-in verifier. Third-party verification websites. Custom scripts (many open-source examples on GitHub). If verification fails: The platform has cheated — this has never been proven for major platforms like Stake.com.
