Without expertise in art, it is not straightforward to distinguish an artwork counterfeit from a genuine piece. This work designs and implements a reliable solution that enables users with near-field communication-enabled Android smartphones to verify artwork authenticity by accessing its respective certificate of authenticity stored in the Ethereum blockchain. To represent a physical artwork, the artwork image and metadata are stored in an inter-planetary file system and minted as an ERC721 non-fungible token to a smart contract deployed in Ethereum Rinkeby Testnet. The mobile app ArtProtect was developed to generate certificate of authenticity based on each non-fungible token fetched through OpenSea Testnet API. Users access this information by scanning an near-field communication tag embedded into the artwork. The content of the tag is signed by the respective artwork's artist and responsible agent by using Ethereum signing with their Ethereum wallet accounts. Through testing and analysis, the implemented work is secure, tamper-evident, usable, flexible, and inexpensive to be applied to a real-world scenario.","PeriodicalId":100650,"journal":{"name":"IET Blockchain","volume":"4 4","pages":"423-442"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1049/blc2.12069","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140419886","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Due to limited storage and computation, light nodes cannot perform transaction validation. This shortage makes opportunities for malicious nodes to produce blocks containing invalid transactions, which results in the loss of funds for light nodes. Fraud proofs play a significant role in ensuring transaction security for light nodes. However, existing fraud proof schemes require honest collaborators and the processing of entire blocks. To address these limitations, Independent Single Transaction Verification Protocol for Light node Using Fraud Proofs without Collaborator called ISTVP is proposed that enables light nodes to independently verify transactions and generate fraud proofs without relying on collaborators or processing the entire block. To support ISTVP, SVST is introduced, an efficient block structure for single-transaction verification. SVST not only efficiently indexes historical transaction outputs to improve verification efficiency, but also significantly reduces the storage requirements for verifying transactions to <math>\u0000 <semantics>\u0000 <mrow>\u0000 <mi>O</mi>\u0000 <mo>(</mo>\u0000 <mrow>\u0000 <mi>h</mi>\u0000 <mo>+</mo>\u0000 <mi>log</mi>\u0000 <mi>n</mi>\u0000 </mrow>\u0000 <mo>)</mo>\u0000 </mrow>\u0000 <annotation>${mathrm{O}}( {{mathrm{h}} + log {mathrm{n}}} )$</annotation>\u0000 </semantics></math>.

However, most current payment channel schemes suffer from overly ideal routing assumptions or fail to provide complete path privacy protection. To address the above problems, the multi-hop anonymous and privacy-preserving PCN scheme are analyzed and a multi-hop anonymous PCN based on onion routing is proposed based on it. The scheme removes the routing assumptions of the original scheme, designs an onion routing-based payment channel network, and modifies the way relay nodes construct elliptic curve discrete logarithmic problems to resist wormhole attacks. Finally, the security analysis shows that the scheme in this paper has atomicity, relational anonymity and resistance to wormhole attacks. The latest bilinear pairing anonymous multi-hop payment (EAMHL+) scheme is used to compare communication and computing overhead. The results show that the scheme in this paper requires less communication overhead and is more efficient in terms of computational overhead when the average hop number of the payment channel network is 3 hops and the network diameter is 6 hops.","PeriodicalId":100650,"journal":{"name":"IET Blockchain","volume":"4 2","pages":"197-208"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1049/blc2.12065","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139807242","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The widespread adoption of DAOs has occurred in response to their utility in managing emergent semi-structured projects and has led to the development of various innovative governance mechanisms. The mechanisms employed by DAOs has the potential to be generalized beyond their core financial domain to a wide range of use cases. In the medical field the use of blockchain and DAOs can provide secure and transparent access to medical data, while ensuring patient privacy. Civic access to medical data is a growing area of interest, where individuals have control over their own medical data and can share it with healthcare providers, researchers, and other stakeholders. DAOs can facilitate this civic access, enabling individuals to share their data securely and selectively with authorized parties for research and other purposes. This paper explores the use of DAOs to medical data sharing, with a focus on ownership, governance, and transaction models.

There are many possibilities of ‘teams’ for folding, some of which allow compensation in cryptomonies. The authors will therefore study the three major communities in order to compare them, in a cost-benefit study logic. A cost-benefit analysis was performed between CURECOIN, BANANO, DOGECOIN folding, DOGECOIN mining and their communities on social platforms based on several outcomes: ‘Points Per Day (PPD)’, ‘Whattomine Mh/s Equivalent’, ‘Graphics Processing Units (GPU) Thermal Design Power/Typical Board Power Watts’, ‘Coins per 1,000,000 PPD’, ‘Coins per Day’, ‘Cost Per Coin’, ‘Cost Per Day’, ‘kWh Used Per Day’. Actually, BANANO, thanks to a large community and bots, has the highest PPD production and the lowest energetic cost on Central Processing Unit per week. On GPUs, DOGECOIN folding has the lowest weekly cost. However, the DOGECOIN community cannot produce as many PPD as the Banano team. CURECOIN offers a good compromise between the environmental point of view and the profitability one. To ensure fairness, the choice of the crypto and the way to earn it that has to be solved should be a pure public good, that is, perfectly non-rival in consumption and non-excludable.
