	To determine if a wager is a winner or loser, the site uses a method to produce a number between 0 and 65,535, similar to how a random number generator (RNG) would be used. The service uses a combination of the transaction hash from the wager transaction from the blockchain and performs a 512-bit SHA2 hash for that transaction hash using a secret unknown to the player. The first four bytes of that hash become the lucky number in determining winner or loser.

			This approach was a precursor to what is now widely known as the Provably Fair system — a standard in modern crypto gambling that allows players to verify the fairness of each result. While SatoshiDice used an on-chain randomizer, today’s protocols rely on off-chain mechanisms to improve speed and scalability. <ref>[https://bitcoindice.info/news/satoshidice-pioneering-bitcoin-gambling/ SatoshiDice as the origin of provably fair crypto gambling]</ref>

	There has been the suggestion that the service might be also be used as a [[mixing service]], as the composition of a wallet can be materially changed after running wagers through Satoshi Dice<ref>[http://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=79079.0 Blockchain-based betting services function as mixing services?]</ref>.

	Though this approach could change the makeup of the wallet, it does not sufficiently serve the mixing purpose as the coins returned in winning bets are tied to the coins from the wager transaction. The new session based game ''may'' send back a balance from unrelated addresses that are not tainted to the deposit address. However taint can still be applied at a later stage if change from the untainted withdrawal is later used together with the original deposit transaction.
