Comment on Spoof-proof random number generator

The Colorado University Randomness Beacon (CURBy) relies on two entangled photons measured at two sites at the same time, 110 meters apart. The sequence of measurement is recorded publicly on a hash chain, which allows observers to detect any attempt to tamper with it. The research team generated random numbers 7,454 times in 40 days and found that a truly random number was generated 7,434 times, which they call a 99.7 percent success rate.
