  • Patent number: 12659178
    Abstract: Provided in the embodiments of the present application are a consortium blockchain admission management method and apparatus. The method includes: for each first-level node which has a direct access control permission for a basic admission management component, in response to a hosting transaction, which is initiated by the first-level node toward the basic admission management component, the basic admission management component constructing a corresponding second-level institution contract; and when the second-level institution contract is in a cooperation mode, in response to a node admission transaction, which is initiated by an initial second-level node toward the second-level institution contract, adjusting second-level nodes, wherein each second-level node has an indirect access control permission for the basic admission management component and can join a blockchain network, and the second-level institution contract realizes multi-level node admission management by means of multi-level expansion.

  • Publication number: 20260010410
    Abstract: A blockchain transaction allocation method performed by any node in a blockchain system includes: determining a bootstrap block pointed to by a target block of a transaction to be allocated, where the bootstrap block is a legal block with a maximum logical clock detected by a local node when generating the target block; determining a consensus member group for allocating a target transaction based on the bootstrap block, and generating a target tag hash based on a transaction hash of the target transaction and a block hash of the bootstrap block; assigning a node number to a target node assigned to the target transaction based on the target tag hash and the total quantity of nodes in the consensus member group; and if the node number of the target node is the node number of the local node, adding the target transaction to the target block.
