What is Yeti Live Draw?

It's an add-on for YetiRaffles that makes your draws checkable. When you prepare a draw, the entries are locked and fingerprinted, a commitment to a secret number is published, and a future round of public randomness from drand (run by the League of Entropy) is fixed. At draw time that randomness is used as the live seed, the winners are picked, and the secret number is revealed. Anyone can then re-run the draw in their own browser and get the same winners. See How Verification Works for exactly what this does and doesn't prove.

Locked Entries

Entries are fingerprinted when the draw is prepared. If tickets change afterwards, the draw refuses to run

Public Randomness

The live seed comes from drand's public beacon - a value that doesn't exist yet when you prepare the draw

Animated Draw Screen

A spinning number reel, winner reveal and confetti, built for OBS and screen sharing
