Bitcoin blockchain itself is a great source of entropy. Last digit of each block is itself random. There is a dedicated thread discussing this phenomenon - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1493510.0

Except that it's far less secure/random if it's used improperly, Thoughts on this private key stealing mystery have detailed case about it.
CSPRNG is still more secure and attacker almost have no information to correctly guess private key with balance.
