Blockchain as a service method, apparatus, and system

A blockchain engagement method comprising:

• invoking transistor-based circuitry configured to authorize a programmatic use of a default blockchain;
• invoking transistor-based circuitry configured to obtain a preference model from a first client after causing a transmission of a first predictive delay indication and a first predictive resource allocation value to said first client both in association with a first alternative blockchain and of a second predictive delay indication and a second predictive resource allocation value to said first client both in association with a second alternative blockchain, wherein a preference indication from said first client thereafter designates said first alternative blockchain;
• after implementing said preference indication as a first user input from said first client conditionally authorizing a programmatic use of said first alternative blockchain through an application programming interface (API) adapted for use with said first and second alternative blockchains, invoking transistor-based circuitry configured to monitor performance data pertaining to said first and second alternative blockchains each including a respective resource allocation value and a delay-indicative component thereof;
• signaling a favorable performance change of said programmatic use of said first alternative blockchain, wherein said programmatic use of said first alternative blockchain corresponding to a discontinuation of a prior programmatic use of said default blockchain results as an automatic and conditional response to one or more event response criteria signaling said favorable performance change of said programmatic use of said first alternative blockchain;
• invoking transistor-based circuitry configured to implement said programmatic use of said first alternative blockchain, including causing an actual recordation onto numerous mining rigs of said first alternative blockchain, wherein said programmatic use of said first alternative blockchain includes extracting a series of resource dispensations from a digitally encrypted hardware wallet of said first client;
• and
• after obtaining a second user input conditionally authorizing a programmatic use of said second alternative blockchain and one or more event response criteria, invoking transistor-based circuitry configured to implement said programmatic use of said second alternative blockchain as an automatic and conditional response to said performance index of said programmatic use of said first alternative blockchain relative to said programmatic use of said second alternative blockchain satisfying said one or more event response criteria signaling a deteriorative performance change of said programmatic use of said first alternative blockchain.
