Understanding Fair Gaming In Online Casinos

When you enter a casino, head to the cashier, and pick up a stack of chips, you do so with the belief that you might walk out a winner. This confidence comes from knowing that the results of your bets are generated randomly, ensuring a fair opportunity to win. Yet, the scenario in online gambling isn’t always so straightforward.

Traditionally, the game server alone generated random numbers, which allowed casinos to have complete authority over the results. Players had to place their trust entirely in the casino, with the hope that the outcomes were not being tampered with. This absence of transparency and the inherent conflict of interest spurred the creation of fair gaming practices, a concept now adopted by AUF.

Collaborative Randomness: Casino and Player Together

To maintain transparency, current casino technology leverages both casino and player input during the random number generation process. This is achieved through pseudorandom number generators and specialized cryptographic algorithms, where a key element is the "seed"—the starting value used in the process.

The process works as follows:

The Casino Provides an Encrypted Seed: At the beginning of the game, the casino submits an encrypted version of its seed. This is akin to sealing a value in an envelope that cannot be altered until it is opened.
Player's Seed Input: The player supplies a seed that the algorithm uses alongside the casino’s seed to create a random result.
Post-Game Transparency: Once the game concludes, the casino reveals its original seed. This allows the player to verify that the outcome was calculated fairly, with neither party having undue influence over the result.


Commitment Schemes: The Backbone of Transparency

To avoid fraudulent practices, the casino withholds its seed until the game is over. By using one-way hash functions or cryptographic methods, the casino creates a commitment that ensures the seed cannot be changed once it’s locked in. Once the game is complete, players can compare the commitment with the disclosed seed to verify the integrity of the process.

What’s In It for You?

In a traditional casino, when you bet on the roulette wheel, neither you nor the dealer can influence the outcome. Online games, particularly those powered by Auf technology, follow the same principle where results are generated randomly to guarantee fairness. This technology allows you to independently verify each bet, confirming that the game was conducted transparently and without bias.

Modern innovations allow Auf to not only uphold game transparency but also to share RTP (Return to Player) information for slot machines, all under license from trusted providers. This added level of disclosure further confirms that every aspect of the gaming experience adheres to the highest standards of fairness and security.

Conclusion

When both the casino and player participate in generating random numbers, it removes any chance for manipulation and ensures fairness. AUF is committed to upholding the principles of transparency and security by offering self-developed games that meet strict industry standards. This guarantees that every wager is handled fairly and every game is played on an even playing field.

With cutting-edge cryptography and a dedication to openness, you can rest assured that your bets at AUF are secure, and every game result is generated with complete transparency and randomness.
