MagicBlock launches ultimate killer: Solana Random Numbers (VRF) permanently free, with zero game cost across the entire chain MagicBlock @ magicblock has released a major benefit: all VRF (Verifiable Random Function) requests on Ephemeric Rollups are now completely free, which is a downgrade for game developers who have been deterred by the high fees of Chainlink VRF or other oracle machines From "Noble Games" to "Civilian Infrastructure" ❌ Pain point: On Solana, the cost of calling VRF once is about 0.002 SOL ($0.26). If your game requires rolling the dice once per minute, the cost of one moonlight random number would be 86 SOL (~$11000)! This directly stifles the survival space of high-frequency games such as full chain Texas Hold'em and RTS ✅ Solution: MagicBlock @ magicblock directly reduces this cost to 0, utilizing the gas free feature of Ephemeric Rollups to complete all VRF requests, calculations, and verifications within Rollup. Not only does it not require gas, but it also does not need to wait for the main network to confirm What did Free VRF unlock? When random numbers become as free as air, new forms of applications will emerge: High frequency PvP games: such as MOBA or FPS games that calculate critical hit rate every second, which used to be impossible, but now it is possible On chain Casinos: The True 'Banker is Contract'. No need to trust centralized servers for card issuance, each card is a random number generated for free on the chain MagicBlock @ magicblock is building a monopoly advantage in the Solana gaming ecosystem If Ephedral Rollups solves the problem of 'slow', then Free VRF solves the problem of 'expensive'. Fast+free+random, these are the last three pieces of the puzzle that will explode in full chain games
