I'm not going to try to understand what they are talking about with the client seeds, player seeds, SHA etc numbers that go into the round result (dice roll, blackjack draw, roulette spin etc). I just have one simple question for somebody who understands it better than I:
I see that this system uses blockchain transactions in some way. Does this mean that the result will change at any given time? in other words, let's say I roll a 50, then immediately roll a 92 for example. Would this 92 appear if I had waited say a few minutes? or does the next roll result change with every passing second? hope this question makes sense.

Which game are you asking about?

If it says that your roll is randomized according to the hash of the most recently found block, or some such, then yes, timing matters.

I don't know of anywhere provably fair that does that though for real-time games.

Didn't you just tell me using blockchain can be faked so using it is not provably fair.
