Description

“SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CREATING LAYER 2 DECENTRALIZED NETWORK BY WAY OF SMART CONTRACT”TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present disclosure relates to the field of decentralized networks and, in particular, to a system and a method for creating a layer 2 decentralized network by way of a smart contract.BACKGROUND

[0002] A private blockchain network is a permissioned network with only selected entities / individuals / parties authorized to participate in the validation and transaction process. Only a single authority manages the blockchain network. In the existing scenario for setting up a private blockchain network specialized technology like Hyperledger Fabric, Corda, Quorom are used. The process of setting up a private blockchain network involves selecting a platform, finalizing the consensus mechanism and then setting up a network of nodes / computers within the organization and then the network setup. Generally, the overall process is multi-step and very complex.

[0003] Generally, setting up a layer 2 decentralized network has a lot of challenges such as, but not limited to, requirement to fork an existing Layer 1 code, complex implementation, high implementation cost, careful consideration of interoperability, security (as the Layer 2 needs to ensure that the data is verified by the underlying Layer 1 chain as well). Similarly, setting up a private and / or permissioned network has similar challenges as the Layer 2 setup. Moreover, setting up a private decentralized network has challenges such as scalability (as the network is limited), regulatory issues, lack of trust, high maintenance cost, complex setup, and high implementation cost.

[0004] Thus, there is a need for a mechanism that would enable to spin off private networks in a much easier and cost-effective way.SUMMARY
