  • Publication number: 20240259196
    Abstract: A timestamp generation method and apparatus, and an electronic device and a storage medium, which are used for solving the technical problem of recorded information being easily leaked because a trusted third party is usually needed as a timestamp authority for recording in a traditional trusted timestamp generation method. In the present invention, the method comprises: acquiring a file record; calculating a hash value of the file record; sending the hash value to a random issuer, and receiving a signature result returned by the random issuer, wherein the signature result is generated after the random issuer signs the hash value and a receiving time, and the receiving time is the time when the random issuer receives the hash value; and storing the signature result in a blockchain as a timestamp of the file record.
