Real World Use Cases
LottoPGF's verifiable, open-source protocol is bringing web3 to a broader audience! This collaboration with a non-profit in the US (launching soon) promises to help relieve graduates of crushing college debt.
Anyone can start a lottery and configure it their own way, incentivising communities to effortlessly support causes they care about.
From randomness through winning odds, to fund distribution – everything is verifiable and auditable onchain.
Our lottery factories are deployed on Ethereum L2s, meaning they are safeguarded by Ethereum's robust and secure blockchain technology.
We remove financial intermediaries using smart contracts on Ethereum based blockchains. Funds are managed securely and decentralized, without relying on third parties for custody or distribution.
We use sources of onchain randomness that are decentralised, publicly-verifiable, unpredictable & unbiased.
