Where does the randomness come from?
Standard random number generators built into operating systems and programming languages (PRNG) rely on deterministic algorithms. They are fast and useful for simulations, but their sequences may be predicted if the initial state or seed is known.
Big Bang Entropy uses physical electromagnetic noise, including Johnson-Nyquist thermal noise, quantum noise in components, and cosmic emissions received by SDR stations. Samples are passed through SHA-512 conditioning to reduce statistical bias.
⚠ Cryptographic notice
For SSH, RSA, or cryptocurrency private keys, mix external entropy with the local system source (`/dev/urandom` or `crypto.getRandomValues()`). Do not rely solely on a single external API without local mixing.
