So has it proven to be random at all? Is that even particularly decipherable given the fact that there are only two options?

You can say that it is always random by saying any pattern that you have chosen was randomly created and put forth

If we get an infinitely long stream, the very concept of "pattern" (Or at least "repetition") becomes meaningless, though. Or something along those lines.
