Next-gen Tor is arriving and it will include a distributed random number generator

Researchers at the Tor project are working on a new distributed random number generator that will be included in the next-generation Tor network. Random Number Generators are essential components for any encryption application, they are designed to generate sequences of symbols that is causal and not predictable. The Tor network relies on the Onion routing for anonymous communication over a computer network. The experts at Tor Project tested their new solution last week on an 11-node belonging the Tor network. The researchers involved in the project set up a Tor node and enabled the distributed random number generation feature.”]
