Abstract
An example operation may include one or more of receiving a blockchain request from a client application in a blockchain network, receiving validity information of a timestamp included in the blockchain request from one or more endorsing nodes in the blockchain network, modifying the timestamp included in the blockchain request based on the validity information received from the one or more endorsing nodes, ordering the blockchain request among a group of blockchain requests based on the modified timestamp with respect to timestamps of other blockchain requests in the group, and storing the ordered group of blockchain requests within a data block among a hash-linked chain of data blocks.
