htmlOn December 19, Sports Lottery officially ended its Spring Festival closing, and all lottery types have resumed normal sales. Tonight, the Sports Lottery Super Lotto will usher in the first draw in the Year of the Ox. Lotto is a lottery favorite among lottery buyers. Every Monday, Wednesday and Saturday at around 8:30 pm, under the supervision of notarized personnel, the Sports Lottery Center broadcasts the lottery lottery live.
Many people have questions in their minds. The sales deadline for the Lotto is 8 pm, so why is the lottery draw time around 8:30? Why can't the lottery be drawn immediately after the sales deadline?
In fact, after the China Sports Lottery sales deadline (8 o'clock every night), the staff of the Lottery Center Data Center of the General Administration of Sports will summarize the sales data of each game of sports lottery that day, and under the full supervision of the notary personnel, the current sales data will be burned in a CD that cannot be rewritten. Once this kind of CD is written, it cannot be changed forever and will be sealed on site by notary personnel. Under normal circumstances, data sealing process takes about 20 minutes. The daily lottery must be carried out after the data sealing is completed. Therefore, the sales of China Sports Lottery is at 20 o'clock every night, and the official lottery time is after 20:25. The sealed data will be used to verify the prize calculation results. After the
lottery prize is over, the notary will use the data sealed before the lottery prize to calculate the prize on a completely independent system. The prize calculation results completed by the notary using the sealed data will be compared with the prize calculation results of the sales system. Only if the prize calculation is completely consistent is valid.
is visible. It is precisely because of the above 20-minute data sealing technology as a guarantee that it has become a fantasy for anyone to modify the data based on the lottery results. It eliminates the possibility of tampering with data and affecting the winning results, protects data security and the interests of lottery players, and ensures that the Chinese sports lottery draw fairly and just.
data sealing is an important means to ensure fairness and justice in lottery draws, and it also exists abroad. The large-scale interstate joint sales games " Powerball " and "Super Million" in the United States usually have 1-2 hours apart from sales to lottery draws; while the European large-scale lottery game "Euro Million" has about 1 and a half hours apart. In comparison, the Sports Lottery Lotto controls the sales to the lottery draw time to 20 minutes. In terms of the time of data storage, "Sports Lottery efficiency" is in the leading position in the international market.
