The problem Scroll Coin Flip solves
I wanted to to deploy fully usable dApp (smart contract + UI + MetaMask) to Scroll and test what are the limitations compares to standard EVM.
Challenges I ran into
The biggest challenge appeared to be the secure source of randomness.
First, I wanted to try PREVRANDAO opcode but then I found out it doesn't work in Scroll.
Then, I wanted to implement Redstone FInance's randomness Oracle which didn't work either. I was getting "ECDSA: invalid signature" error. This error doesn't seem to be related to Scroll however. Was getting it also on Goerli testnet with RedStone example contract with no custom chages.
Another way around this issue could be using Chainlink VRF V2, but that's not supported on Scroll (according to docs) and I didn't have time tro try.
So right now I am generating rundom number simply as a Keccak has of block timestamp, which is not secure because validators can cheat.
