Blockchain-based message services for time-sensitive events

Abstract

Disclosed herein are methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for providing blockchain-based message services. One of the methods includes: receiving shipping data and shipping insurance order data associated with a purchase order; determining whether a shipping insurance order corresponding to the shipping insurance order data is valid; initiating a consensus algorithm to record the shipping data and the shipping insurance order data on a blockchain; generating a first event message including a notification that a shipping insurance of the purchase order is effective; receiving shipping insurance premium distribution data indicating a distribution of shipping insurance premium associated with the shipping insurance order to one or more service providers; determining that the distribution of the shipping insurance premium is legal; initiating the consensus algorithm of the blockchain network to record the shipping insurance premiumdistribution data on a blockchain; and generating a second event message notifying that the shipping insurance premium is distributed according to the shipping insurance premium distribution data.

Description

technical field [0001] This paper deals with providing a blockchain-based messaging service for time-sensitive events. Background technique [0002] A distributed ledger system (DLS), which may also be referred to as a consensus network and / or a blockchain network, enables participating entities to store data securely and immutably. Without referencing any specific use case, DLS is often referred to as a blockchain network. Examples of types of blockchain networks may include public blockchain networks, private blockchain networks, and consortium blockchain networks. A federated blockchain network is provided for a selected group of entities that control the consensus process and includes an access control layer. [0003] Digital networks have enabled people around the world to find information and interact easily and efficiently. For example, social media platforms allow people to easily share messages, photos and videos with friends and colleagues. Online shopping site...

Problems solved by technology

Data and messages exchanged between parties are usually communicated through point-to-point communication, which makes it difficult to verify the authenticity of data and recover from data loss

Moreover, data provided by different parties may be inconsistent, which reduces the processing efficiency of transportation insurance and insurance premium allocation
