  • Patent number: 11477013
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods, devices, and apparatuses, including computer programs stored on computer-readable media, for managing a cryptographic key. One of the methods includes: receiving a request for a signature on transaction data; allocating a key manager corresponding to the request; and obtaining, by the key manager, the signature on the transaction data and the cryptographic key, wherein the cryptographic key is a public key, and the signature on the transaction data is obtained based on a private key corresponding to the public key.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 11201742
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods, systems, and apparatus for processing blockchain-based guarantee information. One method includes receiving a cross-chain request for relaying a cyphertext of a digital document to a second blockchain network, the digital document specifies a guarantee from the guarantor and one or more predetermined conditions of executing the guarantee, wherein the guarantee is made by the guarantor to a beneficiary; storing the cross-chain request and the cyphertext to a first blockchain associated with the first blockchain network based on performing a consensus algorithm; receiving a message from a second computing device for relaying information between the first blockchain network and the second blockchain network, the message includes a confirmation that the guarantee is accepted by the beneficiary and stored on a second blockchain associated with the second blockchain network; and updating a status of the guarantee to indicate that the guarantee has been voided on the first blockchain.

  • Publication number: 20210160075
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for processing guarantee information. One of the methods includes receiving an application of a guarantee made by at least a guarantor to a beneficiary; generating a digital version of the guarantee based on the information included in the application; encrypting the digital version to generate cyphertext of the guarantee; generating one or more zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs) related to one or more values associated with the guarantee; and sending the cyphertext and the one or more ZKPs to a blockchain network to store the cyphertext on a blockchain, wherein the cyphertext is stored on the blockchain through consensus of blockchain nodes of the blockchain network after the one or more ZKPs are successfully verified by the blockchain nodes.
