Abstract
A node associated with an organization may receive a storage identifier for new credit data associated with an individual. A distributed ledger and distributed data sources may be used to share the new credit data with a network of nodes. The node may update a smart contract with the storage identifier for the new credit data. The node may receive, from a particular device associated with the organization, a request for the new credit data. The node may obtain the storage identifier for the new credit data from the smart contract. The node may obtain the new credit data by using the storage identifier to search the distributed data sources. The node may provide the new credit data to the particular device. The node may perform actions to obtain additional new credit data from the distributed data sources or provide the additional new credit data to the distributed data sources.
