Abstract:
A method comprising: A. forming a consortium blockchain network using domain network nodes and selecting committee members from top-level domain nodes; B. the committee member who received most votes packs the genesis block and generates a random number; C. the housekeeper having the same number as the random number packs the current block and generates a random number for selecting a next housekeeper to pack the next block, each block is approved by more than half of the committee members; D. during the duty cycle, each housekeeper takes turns packing blocks and generating random numbers and the process is repeated. If a block is not approved, the housekeeper with the next number is requested to repack the block; and E. the last random number generated by a housekeeper before the duty cycle ends is used to select the housekeeper to pack the first block of the next duty cycle.
