Abstract
A server in a blockchain distribution network includes a processor and a transceiver operatively coupled to the processor. The transceiver is configured to receive bytes of an encrypted blockchain from a peer node in a peer-to-peer network, where the server is unable to identify a source node that generated the encrypted blockchain based on the received bytes. The transceiver is also configured to propagate the bytes of the encrypted blockchain to one or more additional peer nodes and to one or more additional servers in the blockchain distribution network.
