The
random method is an RPC method provided by the Ripple (XRP) blockchain. This command returns a random number that can be used as a source of entropy for random number generation by clients. It's particularly useful in scenarios where a high-entropy random number is required, such as cryptographic operations or unique identifier generation.The
random method accepts no parameters.The
random method returns an object with the following fields:random: A Random 256-bit hex value.status: The status of the request, typically "success".
{
"method": "random",
"params": [
{}
]
}
{
"result": {
"random": "4E57146AA47BC6E88FDFE8BAA235B900126C916B6CC521550996F590487B837A",
"status": "success"
}
}
This response includes a random 256-bit hex value generated by the XRP node.
