Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for implementing digital certificates. One of the methods includes: generating a digital certificate; generating a digital abstract of the digital certificate; transmitting the digital abstract of the digital certificate to one or more nodes of a blockchain for storage in the blockchain; obtaining a transaction identification associated with storing the digital abstract of the digital certificate in the blockchain; and associating a digital mark with the transaction identification.
