Issue To Be Solved

On traditional blockchains, generating pseudorandom numbers, while technically not strictly possible, is nonetheless useful, especially for low-stakes transactions, where a miner would not be incentivized to influence the outcome. I wonder if a standard method of PRNG could be built in to Flow as a core feature.

(Optional): Context

A lot of game ideas, including NFT minting, rely on a PRNG. It seems pretty core to behavior of a lot of contracts.
