Abstract

Malicious attacks and the introduction of illegal data put blockchains at risk, and blockchain governance is gaining increasing attention. The redactable blockchain technology has become a mainstream solution for blockchain governance. However, a low completion rate for redaction tasks limits current redactable blockchain technologies, primarily due to the absence of an effective incentive mechanism for participants. This gap underscores the urgent need for designing and implementing robust incentive mechanisms in redactable blockchains. Incentive mechanisms can motivate and guide entities to participate and perform desired behaviors through awards and punishments. This paper proposes Concordit, the first deployable credit-based incentive mechanism for redactable blockchains. Its purpose is to encourage submitters to submit legal redaction requests, modifiers to perform legal redaction operations, and verifiers to maintain the behavior consistent with the consensus algorithm. In the context of permissioned blockchains, Concordit utilizes a credit value system for awards and punishments. Additionally, we use a game theory-based mechanism to analyze and model participants’ behavior utilities in the redactable blockchain. Meanwhile, we evaluate the credibility of nodes by combining their static initial credit values and dynamic behavior-related credit values. This system prioritizes high-credibility nodes as participants, thereby enhancing the completion rate for redaction tasks. Finally, the implementation and performance evaluation of our Concordit incentive mechanism demonstrate its effectiveness and practicality.
Concordit:基于信用的许可可删节区块链激励机制
恶意攻击和非法数据的引入使区块链面临风险,区块链治理日益受到关注。可编辑区块链技术已成为区块链治理的主流解决方案。然而,删节任务的低完成率限制了当前的可删节区块链技术,主要原因是缺乏对参与者的有效激励机制。这一差距凸显了在可编辑区块链中设计和实施强大激励机制的迫切需要。激励机制可以通过奖惩激励和引导实体参与并执行所需的行为。本文提出了第一个可部署的基于信用的可编辑区块链激励机制--Concordit。其目的是鼓励提交者提交合法的删节请求,鼓励修改者执行合法的删节操作,鼓励验证者保持与共识算法一致的行为。在许可区块链的背景下,Concordit 利用信用值系统进行奖惩。此外,我们还使用基于博弈论的机制来分析和模拟可删节区块链中参与者的行为效用。同时,我们结合节点的静态初始信用值和动态行为相关信用值来评估节点的可信度。该系统优先考虑高可信度节点作为参与者,从而提高了节录任务的完成率。最后,我们的 Concordit 激励机制的实施和性能评估证明了其有效性和实用性。
