Abstract
A system that includes a first network node configured to store a first ledger, a second network node configured to store a second ledger, and a third network node. The third network node includes a transformation engine configured to generate a plurality of shares derived using a data entry, which includes setting a share quantity indicating the number of shares to generate and setting a threshold value indicating the number of shares from the share quantity needed to determine the data entry. The transformation engine generates a first share for the first ledger and a second share for the second ledger using a polynomial function. The transformation engine includes enriched data with information indicating when to publish the first share and the second share. The transformation engine transmits the first enriched share to the first network node and transmit the second enriched share to the second network node.
