What is the Cardano 'Entropy Pool'?

The Cardano Entropy Pool is a source of randomness used in various cryptographic operations within the Cardano network. It continuously collects entropy (randomness) from multiple sources to ensure a high-quality, unpredictable source of random data. This pool is crucial for the security of many Cardano protocol operations, including the Ouroboros leader selection process.
