Is this coin toss fair?
Yes. Each flip uses your browser’s cryptographic random number generator (crypto.getRandomValues), the same source used to make passwords and security keys. Heads and tails each have exactly a 50% chance, and no flip is affected by the ones before it.
A real coin is very close to fair, but not perfectly. A 2023 study by researchers at the University of Amsterdam, who logged over 350,000 hand tosses, found a coin lands on the same side it started on about 51% of the time. A virtual coin has no starting side, so it avoids that small bias.
What to expect when you flip a coin 100 times
Even with a fair coin you will rarely get exactly 50 heads and 50 tails. In 100 flips, getting anywhere between about 40 and 60 heads is normal. Streaks are normal too: in 100 flips, a run of five or six heads or tails in a row is common. The Longest streak counter shows this, and it surprises most people, which is why coin flips are a favorite way to teach probability in class.
- Chance of heads on one flip: 1 in 2 (50%).
- Chance of two heads in a row: 1 in 4 (25%).
- Chance of three heads in a row: 1 in 8 (12.5%).
- Chance of ten heads in a row: 1 in 1,024.
Ways to use a coin flip
- Settle a choice: who goes first, who pays, which film to watch.
- Sports and games: the kick-off toss, choosing sides or deciding a tie.
- Class experiments: flip 100 or 1,000 times and compare the result with the 50% prediction.
- Making up your mind: flip, then notice whether you feel relieved or disappointed. That feeling is often your real answer.
