Integrate Verifiable Random Function (VRF) for Block Proposer Selection #38

Description

@Steake

Part of Epic: #70 - RC1: Network & Consensus Foundation


Goal: Use elliptic curve VRF to randomize block proposer selection for each round.

Requirements:

  • Implement VRF output and proof system (schnorrkel or similar)
  • Store and validate vrf_output and vrf_proof in BlockHeader
  • Make block proposer selection nondeterministic and secure

Files:

  • crates/bitcell-node/src/blockchain.rs
  • crates/bitcell-crypto/src/vrf.rs

Acceptance Criteria:

  • Block header contains real VRF data
  • Block validation checks VRF proof
  • Block proposer randomness is verified
