Abstract:
A blockchain may be used to store transactions in an immutable ledger. The types of transactions may vary and the information from the transactions could be used to identify information about nodes in a particular network. One example operation may include one or more of identifying a number of nodes operating on a blockchain, determining a new blockchain transaction, and determining one or more of the nodes as having one or more characteristics based on the new blockchain transaction.
