My heart goes out the cryptographers. All that code, written over decades, that assumes coin flips are 50:50. So much updating and rewriting to do. Quite a few algorithms that will need a rethink to remain fair.

If your cryptographer's code is based on coin flips, you probably want to find a new cryptographer.
