Abstract
Networked computer nodes may collectively compete to process one more specific computing operations. A framework for selectively targeting a group of computer nodes as eligible to process the one or more computing operations is disclosed. A subset of computer nodes may be selected as targeted computer nodes for processing the computing operation based on a set of criteria. The one or more computing operations may include cryptographic operations.
Claims20
A system, comprising:
- a non-transitory memory;
- and
- one or more hardware processors coupled with the non-transitory memory and configured to read instructions from the non-transitory memory to cause the system to perform operations comprising:
- broadcasting a first cryptocurrency transaction record to a cryptocurrency network, the first cryptocurrency transaction record targeting a subset of computer nodes from a plurality of computer nodes associated with the cryptocurrency network;
- subsequent to the broadcasting, detecting a transaction block that includes the first cryptocurrency transaction record on a blockchain associated with the cryptocurrency network;
- accessing a second cryptocurrency transaction record from the transaction block;
- extracting data corresponding to a Layer Two invoice from the second cryptocurrency transaction record;
- and
- transferring a secondary transaction fee to a particular computer node from the subset of computer nodes over a Layer Two cryptocurrency computer network based on the Layer Two invoice.
A method, comprising:
- subsequent to broadcasting a first transaction record to a blockchain network, detecting, by a computer system, that a transaction block that includes the first transaction record has been added to a blockchain associated with the blockchain network, the first transaction record targeting a subset of computer nodes from a plurality of computer nodes associated with the blockchain network;
- extracting, from a second transaction record included in the transaction block, encrypted data corresponding to a digital invoice;
- identifying, by the computer system and from the subset of computer nodes, a particular computer node that processed the first cryptocurrency transaction record based on an encryption key usable to decrypt the encrypted data;
- and
- transferring, by the computer system, a secondary transaction fee to the particular computer node over a Layer Two cryptocurrency computer network based on the digital invoice.
A non-transitory machine-readable medium having stored thereon machine-readable instructions executable to cause a machine to perform operations comprising:
- broadcasting a first transaction record corresponding to a cryptocurrency transaction to a blockchain network, the first transaction record targeting a subset of computer nodes from a plurality of computer nodes associated with the blockchain network;
- subsequent to the broadcasting, detecting that a transaction block that includes the first transaction record has been added to a blockchain associated with the blockchain network;
- extracting, from a second transaction record included in the transaction block, encrypted data corresponding to a digital invoice;
- identifying, from the subset of computer nodes, a particular computer node that processed the first cryptocurrency transaction record based on the encrypted data;
- and
- transferring, by the computer system, a secondary transaction fee to the particular computer node over a Layer Two cryptocurrency computer network based on the digital invoice.
