Blockchain Medical Platform Dynamic Token Exchange
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current medical information platforms face challenges in ensuring user reliability and active participation due to insufficient reward mechanisms and fragmentation of medical information, which hinders the development and maintenance of decentralized systems.
Innovation Solution
A method and system that dynamically calculates the exchange ratio between tokens and points on a blockchain-based medical information platform, where points are awarded based on user contributions, allowing for the direct or indirect assessment of user reliability and incentivizing active participation.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If medical information is centrally managed by individual medical institutions, then security and control are maintained, but information sharing and utilization are restricted
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments medical information management into multiple independent nodes (medical institutions, patients, researchers) that each maintain control over their own data while contributing to a shared blockchain network. This segmentation enables both security (each node controls its own data) and sharing (data is accessible to authorized participants across the network).
Solution Approach 2:
The blockchain acts as an intermediary layer that mediates between individual medical institutions and various users. It provides a trusted mechanism for data sharing without requiring central control, enabling secure information exchange while maintaining institutional autonomy and patient privacy through cryptographic protocols.
2Adaptability or versatility
If a decentralized medical information platform is created, then information sharing and accessibility are improved, but user reliability assessment becomes difficult
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a feedback mechanism where users earn points based on their contributions to the platform (data sharing, research participation, verification activities). This point system provides continuous feedback on user reliability, allowing the system to assess and track user trustworthiness dynamically based on actual behavior rather than static credentials.
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs preliminary verification and assessment of user identities and credentials before full platform access is granted. Smart contracts pre-validate user attributes and establish initial trust levels, enabling reliable user assessment from the outset of platform participation.
3Productivity
If conventional token reward mechanisms are used, then some user participation is incentivized, but active and sustained user engagement is insufficient
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a dynamic reward system where point allocation and token exchange rates adjust based on platform needs, user contribution types, and market conditions. This dynamic mechanism keeps the reward system fresh and relevant, sustaining user engagement over time rather than relying on static token distributions.
Solution Approach 2:
The system changes multiple parameters simultaneously: point values for different contribution types, exchange rates between points and tokens, and reward multipliers for specific activities. These parameter changes create varied incentive structures that maintain user interest and encourage diverse participation patterns over extended periods.

AI summary
According to one aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method for managing a medical information platform using a blockchain, the method comprising the steps of: dynamically calculating an exchange ratio between tokens and points, with reference to at least one of an amount of points that a user intends to exchange for tokens on a medical information platform, an amount of tokens that the user intends to exchange for points on the medical information platform, an amount of tokens present in a token pool managed by the medical information platform, and an amount of points previously exchanged for tokens on the medical information platform; and providing the user with the tokens or points exchanged with reference to the calculated exchange ratio.
