Solution Overview

Problem

In transferring a digital asset from one blockchain to another, the asset determining rules on different blockchains often result in differing digital assets, leading to security risks due to inconsistencies.

Innovation Solution

A method and apparatus for cross-chain asset transfer involving multiple blockchains, utilizing a full-chain asset transfer request, contract protocol interface, and off-chain cross-chain service device to ensure consistent asset data across chains, employing full-chain and remote service contracts to synchronize asset information.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If asset determining rules are applied independently on each blockchain, then each blockchain can operate autonomously, but the mapping asset determined on the destination blockchain differs from the original asset, causing security risks

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveblockchain autonomyVSAvoidasset consistency
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces a cross-chain service device as an intermediary between independent blockchains. This device includes a determination module that coordinates asset mapping across chains, ensuring that the mapping asset on the destination blockchain consistently corresponds to the original asset on the source blockchain, while preserving blockchain autonomy

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The cross-chain service device implements universal asset determination logic that can operate across multiple different blockchains. The determination module uses unified determination rules to identify corresponding assets on different chains, enabling consistent asset mapping across diverse blockchain systems with different native asset rules

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

2Adaptability or versatility

If different asset determining rules are used on different blockchains, then each blockchain can maintain its own characteristics, but the mapping asset and original asset become different digital assets, leading to security risks

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveblockchain independenceVSAvoidsecurity risks
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The cross-chain service device acts as a mediator that reconciles different asset determining rules across independent blockchains. The determination module coordinates between chains with different rules, ensuring that despite rule differences, the mapping asset consistently corresponds to the original asset, thereby eliminating security risks while preserving blockchain independence

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent dynamically adjusts asset determination parameters based on the specific blockchain context. The determination module modifies determination rules according to the source and destination blockchain characteristics, enabling consistent asset mapping across blockchains with different native asset parameters and rules

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes
