Warning: Using non-secure random number generator

Warning: Using non-secure random number generator. in /public_html/php-client/mdanter/ecc/src/Random/GmpRandomNumberGenerator.php on line 13

Triggering file: https://github.com/blockcypher/php-client/blob/master/sample/transaction-api/CreateAndSignAndSendTransaction.php

PHP Version: 7.4

Codebase: https://github.com/blockcypher/php-client/releases/tag/v1.5.0

Appears to be a problem occurring due to deprecation of 'mcrypt' from PHP 7.1 (Ref: https://www.php.net/manual/en/migration71.deprecated.php).

Without installing 'mcrypt' or suppressing warning messages or degrading below PHP 7.4, how do I fix it properly?

Should I continue forward with this project, perhaps some chatter or acknowledgment would be helpful to future customers

Hi @adgeese and @UpalChakraborty the PHP 5.5 version (php55 branch) is stable but the master branch is currently in beta. This is currently not at the top of my todo list of things to fix right now. So I'd appreciate if someone could do a quick PR to fix this.
