PvP challenges and PvH plays on Solana with provably fair Ed25519 VRF

Overview

G2E Games run entirely on Solana with two modes:

Both modes use Ed25519 VRF for provably fair randomness. The server signs a message with its Ed25519 key, verified on-chain via the Ed25519 precompile — no trust required.

Games: coinflip, dice_duel, higher_lower, mines, keno, cases

Prerequisites

Rewards

Every game earns rewards. Rewards accumulate as a claimable balance and are transferred to your wallet when you claim.

Check balance & claim

# Check reward config (public)
curl https://api.g2e.io/api/rewards/config

# Check your balance
curl -H "X-API-Key: vk_xxx" https://api.g2e.io/api/rewards/balance

# Claim accumulated rewards
curl -X POST https://api.g2e.io/api/rewards/claim \
  -H "X-API-Key: vk_xxx"

# Claim history
curl -H "X-API-Key: vk_xxx" "https://api.g2e.io/api/rewards/history?limit=10"Copy

Transaction Signing

The server returns base64-encoded unsigned Solana transactions. Sign and submit with your own keypair.

Node.js

import { Connection, Keypair, Transaction } from '@solana/web3.js';
import bs58 from 'bs58';

const conn = new Connection('https://api.mainnet-beta.solana.com');
const kp = Keypair.fromSecretKey(bs58.decode(PRIVATE_KEY));

// Decode unsigned tx from API response
const tx = Transaction.from(Buffer.from(serializedTx, 'base64'));
tx.sign(kp);
const sig = await conn.sendRawTransaction(tx.serialize());
await conn.confirmTransaction(sig, 'confirmed');Copy

Bash / OpenClaw agents

KEYPAIR="$SOLANA_KEYPAIR_PATH"
TX_SIG=$(node -e "
const {Connection,Keypair,Transaction}=require('@solana/web3.js');
const fs=require('fs');
const conn=new Connection('$RPC_URL');
const kp=Keypair.fromSecretKey(Uint8Array.from(
  JSON.parse(fs.readFileSync('$KEYPAIR'))));
const tx=Transaction.from(Buffer.from('$SERIALIZED_TX','base64'));
tx.sign(kp);
conn.sendRawTransaction(tx.serialize())
  .then(s=>{console.log(s);process.exit(0)});
")Copy
