[0014] In a further embodiment, when implementing step (1), firstly, the data collection requirements and standards are clarified, detailed data requirements are defined, and it is clear which logistics data needs to be collected, including cargo information, transportation status, timestamp, location information, temperature and humidity and other key indicators, and data collection standards are formulated to ensure that all personnel or equipment involved in data collection follow a unified data format, coding and naming conventions to improve data consistency and comparability; secondly, an efficient data collection method is selected, and IoT devices are integrated to use IoT technologies such as RFID tags, GPS trackers, temperature sensors, etc. to automatically collect and transmit logistics data; these devices can record the location, status and environmental conditions of the goods in real time to reduce human intervention and errors.

Finally, continuous optimization and improvement, feedback mechanism, establish a user feedback mechanism, and timely collect user opinions and suggestions on the data collection process and data quality; according to the feedback results, continuously optimize and improve the data collection methods and systems; technological innovation, pay attention to the latest technologies and development trends in the field of logistics blockchain data storage, and actively explore and apply new technologies and methods to improve the efficiency and quality of data collection; training and education, strengthen the training and education of data collectors and technicians, and improve their professional quality and operational skills. Ensure that they can master the data collection methods and system operation specifications; use blockchain smart contracts: define the rules and conditions for data collection in smart contracts, and automatically trigger the data collection process when specific conditions are met.This can increase automation and responsiveness of data collection.
[0015] In a further embodiment, the step (2) selects a strong encryption algorithm using industry standards, and selects widely verified and recognized encryption algorithms, such as AES and RSA, which are excellent in protecting data from unauthorized access and tampering. Key management, establish a secure key management system to ensure that the generation, storage, distribution and use of keys meet security standards. Adopt hierarchical key management, such as using a master key to encrypt multiple subkeys to improve the flexibility and security of the system; optimize encryption strategies, end-to-end encryption, implement end-to-end encryption for logistics data, that is, keep the encryption state during the entire transmission process from the data source to the end user, which can prevent the data from being stolen or tampered during the transmission process; selective encryption, selectively encrypt part of the data according to the importance and sensitivity of the data. For non-sensitive data, lower-intensity encryption measures or no encryption can be used to save computing resources and improve system performance; dynamic encryption: dynamically adjust encryption strategies according to business needs and environmental changes. For example, during data transmission, the encryption strength and algorithm can be adjusted in real time according to network conditions and security requirements; strengthen the integration and application of encryption technology, deeply integrate it with blockchain technology, closely combine encryption technology with blockchain technology, and use the distributed ledger and non-tamperability characteristics of blockchain to improve the security and credibility of encrypted data. In the blockchain network, each node can verify the integrity and authenticity of the data, thereby ensuring the secure transmission and storage of encrypted data; cross-platform compatibility: ensure that encryption technology is cross-platform compatible and supports different operating systems and hardware devices, which helps to achieve seamless transmission and sharing of data, while Maintain the consistency and security of encrypted data; Continuous monitoring and evaluation, performance monitoring, regularly monitor the performance of encryption technology, including encryption speed, decryption speed, resource consumption and other indicators, according to the monitoring results, timely adjust the encryption strategy and optimize the algorithm to improve system performance and user experience; security assessment, regularly conduct security assessments on encryption technology, including vulnerability scanning, penetration testing, etc., timely discover and repair potential security risks, and ensure the effectiveness and reliability of encryption technology; training and awareness enhancement, strengthen employee training, regularly train and guide employees on data encryption technology, improve employees' security awareness and operational skills, ensure that employees can correctly understand and apply encryption technology, and avoid data leakage and security issues caused by human factors; improve user awareness, through publicity and education activities, improve users' understanding of the importance of data encryption. Encourage users to adopt secure communication and storage methods to jointly maintain the security and stability of logistics blockchain data storage systems and networks.
[0016] In a further embodiment, the step (3) optimizes the block structure and simplifies the block header information: the block header contains the metadata of the block, such as version number, timestamp, difficulty value, random number; by simplifying the block header information, the block size can be reduced and the transmission and verification efficiency of the block can be improved. However, it is necessary to keep the necessary information to maintain the security and integrity of the blockchain; optimize the block body data storage. The block body stores specific information such as transaction data. In the logistics blockchain, the characteristics of logistics data can be optimized, such as using more efficient data encoding methods, compression algorithms or distributed storage strategies to reduce the storage space occupied; increase the block generation speed and optimize the consensus mechanism. The consensus mechanism is the key process for nodes in the blockchain network to reach consensus and generate new blocks. In the logistics blockchain, a suitable consensus mechanism can be selected according to actual needs, such as proof of work (PoW), proof of stake (PoS) or delegated proof of stake (DPoS). At the same time, the parameters and processes of the consensus algorithm can be optimized to improve the consensus efficiency and block generation speed; increase the number of nodes. Increasing the number of nodes in the blockchain network can improve the degree of decentralization of the system, enhance the robustness and security of the system, and at the same time, more nodes can be used. The participation of nodes in the consensus process can also improve the speed and efficiency of block generation; ensure the security of block data, strengthen data encryption, encrypt the data in the block, ensure the security of data during transmission and storage, adopt strong encryption algorithms and secure key management strategies to prevent data from being stolen or tampered with; verify block data. After the block is generated, the authenticity and integrity of the block data are ensured through mutual verification between nodes. The verification process includes checking the correctness of the block header information, whether the transaction data in the block body is legal, and whether the link relationship between blocks is valid; optimize block storage and retrieval, distributed storage, distribute blockchain data on multiple nodes for storage, improve data reliability and availability, even if some nodes fail or are damaged, the overall data can still remain intact and accessible, index and query optimization, establish index and query mechanisms for blockchain data, and improve data retrieval efficiency and query speed. Through indexing, specific blocks or transaction data can be quickly located to meet the different needs of users; continuous monitoring and adjustment, performance monitoring, regular monitoring of the performance of the blockchain network, including block generation speed, transaction processing capacity, network latency and other indicators, timely adjustment of optimization strategies according to monitoring results to improve system performance; security audit, regular security audit and vulnerability scanning of the blockchain network, timely discovery and repair of potential security risks, while strengthening the security protection measures of the node to prevent malicious attacks and data leakage and other incidents.
[0017] In a further embodiment, the step (4) selects a suitable consensus mechanism and evaluates the existing consensus mechanism. First, a comprehensive evaluation is conducted on the currently used consensus mechanism to understand its advantages and disadvantages, performance, and whether it meets the specific needs of the logistics blockchain. Considering the characteristics of the logistics industry, the logistics industry has high requirements for data real-time, security, and traceability. Therefore, when selecting a consensus mechanism, priority should be given to mechanisms that can support these characteristics, such as proof of stake (PoS), delegated proof of stake (DPoS), or practical Byzantine fault tolerance (PBFT). Optimize the consensus algorithm and improve consensus efficiency: By optimizing the consensus algorithm, the time and computing resources required to reach a consensus can be reduced. For example, in the PoS mechanism, the efficiency and fairness of selecting accountants can be improved by optimizing the algorithm for electing accountants. Enhance security and strengthen the security of the consensus mechanism to prevent security threats such as malicious nodes or 51% attacks. For example, in the PBFT mechanism, the security and stability of the system can be improved by adding more fault-tolerant nodes and verification steps. Introduce a hybrid consensus mechanism and combine multiple consensus mechanisms. Considering the possible limitations of a single consensus mechanism, it is possible to consider combining multiple consensus mechanisms. For example, combining PoS and DPoS. The combination not only retains the efficiency of PoS, but also introduces the representativeness and democracy of DPoS. The consensus mechanism is adjusted dynamically according to the actual situation and demand changes of the blockchain network. For example, a simpler consensus mechanism is used to improve efficiency when the network load is low, and a more complex consensus mechanism is used to ensure security when the network load is high or the security threat increases. Optimize consensus nodes and increase the number of nodes. By increasing the number of consensus nodes, the decentralization and robustness of the system can be improved. At the same time, the fault tolerance and anti-attack ability of the system can also be improved. Improve the quality of nodes, screen and review consensus nodes to ensure that only nodes with sufficient computing power and credibility can participate in the consensus process, which helps to reduce the impact of malicious nodes and improve the accuracy and reliability of consensus. Continuous monitoring and adjustment, performance monitoring, regularly monitor the performance of the blockchain network, including indicators such as consensus speed, transaction processing capacity, and network latency. According to the monitoring results, timely adjust the optimization strategy to improve system performance. Security audit, regularly conduct security audits and vulnerability scans on the blockchain network, timely discover and repair potential security risks, and strengthen the security protection measures of nodes to prevent malicious attacks and data leaks.
[0018] In a further embodiment, the step (5) optimizes the data storage structure and adopts efficient data structures, such as Merkle trees. These data structures have significant advantages in reducing data storage and verification overhead. Merkle trees organize a large amount of data into a compact structure through hash values, making data integrity and authenticity verification more efficient; data sharding and indexing, sharding the data on the blockchain, storing a large amount of data in multiple nodes in a dispersed manner, improving the parallel processing capability and query efficiency of the data, and at the same time, establishing an effective indexing mechanism to quickly locate the required data blocks; improving data storage efficiency, data compression, compressing the data on the blockchain before storage to reduce the storage space occupied, adopting efficient compression algorithms, such as LZ4 and Zstandard, which can significantly reduce storage costs while ensuring data integrity, deduplication and redundancy elimination, deduplication and redundancy elimination are performed for repeated data or redundant information on the blockchain, which can not only reduce the waste of storage space, but also improve the consistency and accuracy of data; strengthening data security protection, data encryption, encrypting all data on the blockchain to ensure the security of data during transmission and storage, and adopting strong encryption algorithms, such as AES and RSA , encrypt and decrypt data, and at the same time, strengthen key management to ensure the security and availability of keys; access control, implement refined access control mechanisms through technical means such as smart contracts to ensure that only authorized users can access relevant data, which can prevent unauthorized access and data leakage and other security incidents; optimize data storage environment, distributed storage, use distributed storage technology to store blockchain data on multiple nodes to improve data reliability and availability, even if some nodes fail or are damaged, the overall data can still remain intact and accessible; hardware optimization, select high-performance hardware devices to support blockchain data storage and processing, for example, use high-speed SSD hard drives to increase data reading and writing speeds, and use multi-core processors and large-capacity memory to improve the system's concurrent processing capabilities and data processing capabilities; continuous monitoring and adjustment, performance monitoring, regularly monitor the performance of the blockchain data storage system, including storage capacity, reading and writing speeds, response time and other indicators, and adjust the optimization strategy in time according to the monitoring results to improve system performance; security audit, regularly conduct security audits and vulnerability scans on the blockchain data storage system, promptly discover and repair potential security risks, and strengthen the system's security protection measures to prevent malicious attacks and data leakage incidents.
[0019] In a further embodiment, the step (6) optimizes the data index and retrieval mechanism, establishes an efficient index, and establishes an efficient index mechanism for the data on the blockchain, such as a hash index, a B-tree index, etc., so as to quickly locate the required data block. The index can be constructed based on the key attributes of the data to improve the query efficiency; distributed query, using the distributed characteristics of the blockchain to realize the distributed processing of query requests, distribute the query requests to multiple nodes for parallel processing, and then summarize the results and return them to the user, which can significantly improve the query response speed and throughput; optimize the query algorithm and logic, intelligent query optimization, automatically select the optimal query path and algorithm according to the characteristics of the query request and the distribution of the data, for example, for range query, you can select a suitable index for scanning, for point query, you can directly locate the specific data block; query cache, for frequently queried data, it can be cached in the memory to reduce direct access to the blockchain, and at the same time, you can set a cache elimination strategy to ensure that the cache always stores the latest data; strengthen data access control and permission management, and realize refined permissions through technical means such as smart contracts Management mechanism, ensure that only users with corresponding permissions can access specific data, which can prevent unauthorized access and data leakage and other security incidents; identity authentication, authenticate users who access blockchain data to ensure that the user's identity is authentic and reliable.
