Abstract
An example operation may include one or more of receiving, by gaming peers of a gaming network, a number of transactions from a blockchain network, electing a subset of gaming peers to verify the transactions and a leader from the subset of gaming peers, generating, by the leader, a block comprising the number of transactions, validating the block, by the subset of gaming peers, and broadcasting the block to the blockchain network.
Claims20
A system, comprising:
- a blockchain network comprising a hardware processor;
- a gaming network, comprising a hardware processor, coupled to the blockchain network, comprising:
- gaming peers, configured to receive transactions from the blockchain network, and in response:
- elect a subset of gaming peers to verify the transactions and a leader from the subset of gaming peers;
- generate, by the leader, a block comprising the number of transactions;
- validate the block, by the subset of gaming peers;
- and
- broadcast the block to the blockchain network.

3 more elements
A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising instructions, that when read by a processor, cause the processor to perform:
- receiving, by gaming peers of a gaming network, a number of transactions from a blockchain network;
- electing a subset of gaming peers to verify the transactions and a leader from the subset of gaming peers;
- generating, by the leader, a block comprising the number of transactions;
- validating the block, by the subset of gaming peers;
- and
- broadcasting the block to the blockchain network.
