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 a transaction from a peer node. The processor is configured to assign a transaction identifier to the transaction. The transceiver is configured to propagate the transaction identifier to one or more additional peer nodes and one or more additional servers in the blockchain distribution network. The transceiver is configured to receive bytes of a blockchain that represents a plurality of transactions. The blockchain includes the transaction identifier corresponding to the transaction. The transceiver is further configured to propagate the bytes of the blockchain to the one or more additional peer nodes and to the one or more additional servers in the blockchain distribution network.
