Title:
METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DETERMINING MAIN CHAIN OF BLOCKCHAIN, DEVICE, AND STORAGE MEDIUM
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2019/210711
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for determining a main chain of a blockchain, a device, and a storage medium. The method comprises: determining, on the basis of a detection result that it is detected that a blockchain has at least two fork chains, weights of blocks in the fork chains (110); determining, on the basis of the weights of the blocks comprised in the fork chains, the weights of the fork chains (120); and determining a main chain from the fork chains on the basis of the weights of the fork chains, and rolling back the fork chains except for the main chain (130). By determining a main chain from fork chains on the basis of the weights of the fork chains, the problem of malicious discarding of a tail block of a previous block generation node during a block generation node switching process is avoided to a certain extent, the costs for a malicious attack to a block generation node are increased, and the success rate of a malicious attack is reduced.
