Backbone Node Access Through Voting And Anchoring For Blockchain Governance
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing blockchain networks face challenges in maintaining network governance openness and service stability due to dynamic node access and exit, necessitating an automatic access mechanism for backbone nodes.
Innovation Solution
A method for backbone node access in a blockchain system involves a first node receiving an access request, determining a voting node, requesting a vote, and anchoring a second node based on the voting result to enable the backbone node to access the first blockchain system, transforming the second system into a slave chain system and the first system into a master chain system.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If automatic access mechanism is implemented for backbone nodes, then network governance openness and service stability are maintained, but node access control complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a voting node as an intermediary component between the backbone node and the first blockchain system. The voting node receives access requests from backbone nodes, performs verification against preset conditions, and forwards approved requests to the first blockchain system. This intermediary structure simplifies the overall access control mechanism by centralizing the verification function while maintaining system stability and governance openness.
2Adaptability or versatility
If backbone node access is approved, then network governance openness is maintained, but security risks to the slave chain system increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements preliminary verification of access conditions before allowing backbone node access to the first blockchain system. The voting node checks preset conditions in advance, and only approved requests are forwarded to the first blockchain system. This preliminary action mechanism ensures that only secure and compliant backbone nodes can access the system, thereby maintaining governance openness while preventing security risks to the slave chain system.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent establishes a feedback mechanism where the voting node receives access requests from backbone nodes, verifies them against preset conditions, and provides feedback by forwarding approved requests to the first blockchain system. This feedback loop ensures continuous monitoring and control of backbone node access, allowing the system to maintain openness while mitigating security risks through ongoing verification.
3Object-affected harmful factors
If manual access control is used for backbone nodes, then security can be maintained, but network governance openness is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a self-service access control mechanism where backbone nodes autonomously send access requests to the voting node, which automatically verifies preset conditions and forwards approved requests to the first blockchain system. This self-service approach eliminates the need for manual access control while maintaining security through automated verification, thereby preserving network governance openness without compromising security.

AI summary
A backbone node access method and a blockchain system are disclosed. In the backbone node access method, after receiving an access request of a backbone node in a second blockchain system, a first node of a first blockchain system determines a voting node and requests the voting node to vote on the access request; the voting node feeds back a voting result; after determining to approve the access request according to the voting result, the first node determines a second node and sends anchoring message to the second node; and the second node is anchored with the backbone node based on the anchoring message, so that the backbone node accesses to the first blockchain system, the second blockchain system becomes a slave chain system of the first blockchain system, and the first blockchain system becomes a master chain system of the second blockchain system.
