Abstract
Systems, methods, and apparatuses of creating a repair token for a distributed ledger are provided. A method includes identifying an error in the distributed ledger via a computing system. The error is associated with a first block on the distributed ledger. The method further includes creating the repair token having content of the first block and a correction to the error via the computing system.
Claims20
A method, comprising:
- creating, via a computing system, a token to replace a first block of a distributed ledger, wherein the first block is invalid or corrupt, wherein the token points to at least one of a second block preceding the first block or a third block after the first block;
- at least one of digitally signing or timestamping, via the computing system, the token;
- and
- publishing, via the computing system, the token.
A computing system, comprising:
- at least one processor;
- and
- a non-transitory machine readable medium with instructions stored thereon that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to:
- create a token to replace a first block of a distributed ledger, wherein the first block is invalid or corrupt, wherein the token points to at least one of a second block preceding the first block or a third block after the first block;
- at least one of digitally sign or timestamp the token;
- and
- publish the token.
At least one processor-readable medium comprising processor-readable instructions, such that, when executed by at least one processor, causes the at least one processor to:
- create a token to replace a first block of a distributed ledger, wherein the first block is invalid or corrupt, wherein the token points to at least one of a second block preceding the first block or a third block after the first block;
- at least one of digitally sign or timestamp the token;
- and
- publish the token.
