US 2026/0252552 A1 · SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR INTER-SHARD TRANSACTION IN BLOCKCHAIN NETWORK

Abstract

A system and a method for an inter-shard transaction between accounts belonging to different shards (working shards) in a blockchain network to which dynamic sharding technique is applied. The system for an inter-shard transaction in a blockchain network, according to one embodiment of the present invention, is included in a first node for managing a first transmission account for performing a first transaction. The first node comprises: a home shard calculation unit calculating, on the basis of address information about a first reception account and total shard number information, home shard information about the first reception account for performing the first transaction; a working shard information request unit for requesting working shard information about the first reception account from a second node having the home shard of the first reception account as a working shard; a working shard information reception unit and a transaction transmission unit.

Dependent claims

A system for inter-shard transaction in a blockchain network on a first node that manages a first sender account that performs a first transaction, wherein:

the first node comprises:
a home shard calculation unit that computes home shard information of a first receiver account that performs the first transaction based on information on an address of the first receiver account and information on a total number of shards;
a working shard information request unit that requests working shard information of the first receiver account to a second node that has a home shard of the first receiver account as a working shard;
a working shard information reception unit that receives the working shard information of the first receiver account from the second node;
and
a transaction transmission unit that requests the first transaction to a node that manages the first receiver account.
