Systems And Methods Of Secure Provenance For Distributed Transaction Databases

An electronic resource tracking and storage computer system is provided that communicates with a distributed blockchain computing system that includes multiple computing nodes. The system includes a storage system, a transceiver, and a processing system. The storage system includes an resource repository and transaction repository that stores submitted blockchain transactions. A new resource issuance request is received, and a new resource is added to the resource repository in response. A new blockchain transaction is generated and published to the blockchain. In correspondence with publishing to the blockchain, the transaction storage is updated with information that makes up the blockchain transaction and some information that was not included as part of the blockchain transaction. The transaction storage is updated when the blockchain is determined to have validated the previously submitted blockchain transaction.

3 Independent Claims

  • 1. An electronic resource tracking and storage computer system that is configured to communicate with computing nodes of a distributed blockchain computing system that maintains a blockchain , the electronic resource tracking and storage computer system comprising: a computer storage system configured to store: a plurality of blockchain participant identifiers that are each associated with at least one cryptographic key, each of the plurality of blockchain participant identifiers associated with a corresponding one of plural different participants, and a plurality of blockchain resource identifiers that are associated with at least one resource cryptographic key; a processing system that includes at least one hardware processor coupled to the computer storage system and the transceiver, the processing system configured to: in response to reception of a digital resource issuance request, create a new digital resource identifier, the new digital resource identifier identifying a new resource associated with the digital resource issuance request, wherein the new digital resource identifier is associated with a corresponding cryptographic key; generate a blockchain transaction that is to a participant blockchain identifier of a first participant of the plural different participants, the generated blockchain transaction including the new digital resource identifier and a quantity value that indicates a quantity for the new resource; sign the generated blockchain transaction with the corresponding cryptographic key that is associated with the new digital resource identifier; submit the generated blockchain transaction to the distributed blockchain computing system for incorporation into the blockchain that is maintained by the distributed blockchain computing system; in correspondence with publishing the generated blockchain transaction to the distributed blockchain computing system, store, to the computer storage system, a new transaction record that includes at least some of the data included in the generated blockchain transaction and additional transaction data that was not included in the generated blockchain transaction; and update, based on incorporation of the submitted blockchain transaction into the blockchain, the new transaction record that is stored in the computer storage system.

  • 10. A method of electronic resource tracking using an electronic resource tracking and storage computer system that is configured to communicate with computing nodes of a distributed blockchain computing system that maintains a blockchain, the electronic resource tracking and storage computer system storing (a) a plurality of blockchain participant identifiers that are each associated with at least one cryptographic key, each of the plurality of blockchain participant identifiers associated with a corresponding one of plural different participants, (b) a plurality of blockchain resource identifiers that are each associated with at least one resource cryptographic key, the method comprising: receiving a resource issuance request for issuance of a new resource; in response to reception of the resource issuance request, creating a new digital resource identifier, the new digital resource identifier identifying the new resource and the new digital resource identifier being associated with a corresponding cryptographic key; generating a blockchain transaction that is to a participant blockchain identifier of a first participant, the generated blockchain transaction including the new blockchain resource identifier and a quantity value that indicates a quantity for the new resource; digitally signing the generated blockchain transaction with the corresponding cryptographic key that is associated with the new digital resource identifier; submitting the generated blockchain transaction to the distributed blockchain computing system for incorporation into the blockchain that is maintained by the distributed blockchain computing system; in correspondence with submitting the generated blockchain transaction to the distributed blockchain computing system, storing, to the storage computer system, a new transaction record that includes at least some of the data included in the generated blockchain transaction and additional transaction data that was not included in the generated blockchain transaction; and updating, based on incorporation of the submitted blockchain transaction into the blockchain, the new transaction record to indicate that the generated transaction has been added to the blockchain.

  • 16. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium having stored thereon computer readable instructions for use with an electronic resource tracking and storage computer system that includes at least one processor, a memory, and a transceiver, the electronic resource tracking and storage computer system configured to communicate with computing nodes of a distributed blockchain computing system that maintains a blockchain, the memory configured to store (a) a plurality of blockchain participant identifiers that are each associated with at least one cryptographic key, each of the plurality of blockchain participant identifiers associated with a corresponding one of plural different participants, (b) a plurality of blockchain resource identifiers that each correspond to a resource that is tracked on the blockchain, the stored computer readable instructions comprising instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the computer system to: receive a resource issuance request for issuance of a new resource; in response to reception of the resource issuance request, store, to the memory, a new digital resource identifier and a corresponding a corresponding cryptographic key, the new digital resource identifier identifying the new resource; generate a blockchain transaction that is to a participant blockchain identifier of a first participant, the generated blockchain transaction including the new digital resource identifier and a quantity value that indicates a quantity for the new resource; sign the generated blockchain transaction with the corresponding cryptographic key that is associated with the new digital resource identifier; submit the generated blockchain transaction to the distributed blockchain computing system to be incorporated therein; in correspondence with submitting the generated blockchain transaction to the distributed blockchain computing system, store, to the memory, a new transaction record that includes at least some of the data included in the generated blockchain transaction and additional transaction data that was not included in the generated blockchain transaction; and subsequent to incorporation of the generated blockchain transaction into the blockchain, update the new transaction record to indicate that the generated transaction.
