Pre-verification of Data in Electronic Trade Blockchain Platform

Abstract

Blockchain technology has several advantages, including security, transparency, and stability. It can reduce data management cost and be applied to important electronic document related services. However, in the perspective of the subject, in order to apply the blockchain technology to electronic document-related services form, it is necessary to review the integrity of the electronic documents to verify that a stable transaction is possible. In addition, in the perspective of the consumer, because electronic documents contain content related to their important personal information or contracts, electronic documents should be proved to be stable in the blockchain trading platform. Therefore, this study aims to present an architecture that can verify the integrity of the blockchain-based electronic document platform by presenting a pre-validation method for electronic documents. Furthermore, by establishing an actual pilot system based on this architecture, a system where customers can reliably understand their transactions and contracts was made. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.
