Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of blockchain technology, and in particular relates to a decentralized, secure and scalable blockchain state identification method. Background Technology

[0002] As blockchain expands across various fields and spawns countless Web3 projects, it encounters the enduring challenge of the trilemma, which involves maintaining a delicate balance between decentralization, security, and scalability. Ethereum's key shift from Proof-of-Work to Proof-of-Stake reflects the industry's proactive response to the trilemma, but this shift has also brought problems. Factors such as user interaction, fees, token creation, and project development have an impact on the dynamic changes in the state of the blockchain, which necessitates continuous evaluation after each blockchain is validated and added.

[0003] In the field of blockchain, existing research has not proposed a comprehensive and structured method to evaluate the effectiveness of blocks based on the three aspects of decentralization, security, and scalability, thereby demonstrating the dynamic characteristics of the blockchain ecosystem. Therefore, there is still a lack of effective solutions to the trilemma in the blockchain field.

[0004] A blockchain security situation awareness method based on Markov attack graphs and game theory models quantifies the probability of attack paths and combines this with the characteristics of blockchain network nodes to achieve security situation awareness and prediction of the blockchain network. A blockchain network security situation awareness and prediction method based on Bayesian networks achieves security situation awareness and prediction of the blockchain network by establishing a Bayesian network model and calculating node state transition probabilities. A method for quantifying the degree of decentralization of a blockchain system analyzes the decentralized characteristics of data blocks and Ethereum using multiple indicators and granularities.

[0005] Current blockchain technology faces numerous challenges in terms of decentralization, security, and scalability. First, scalability is insufficient; blockchain networks, including data blocks, are prone to congestion during high-concurrency transactions, leading to increased transaction fees and hindering large-scale application needs. Second, decentralization is limited; centralized computing power in mining pools can lead to centralization risks, and node operating costs are high. Third, security vulnerabilities are significant; 51% attacks and smart contract vulnerabilities threaten network stability and user fund security. Furthermore, privacy protection is inadequate; publicly transparent transaction records can easily leak user information; cost and energy consumption are serious issues, with blockchains using proof-of-work mechanisms consuming enormous amounts of energy and burdening the environment. Simultaneously, regulatory and compliance risks limit the widespread application of blockchain technology, and policy differences between countries increase the difficulty of application. Finally, technical complexity and interoperability are insufficient; difficulties in collaboration between different blockchains hinder its development as a general-purpose platform. These shortcomings indicate that blockchain technology still faces many obstacles before achieving wider application. Summary of the Invention
