Abstract
Disclosed herein are methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for storing blockchain data. One of the methods includes receiving a request for performing error correction coding (ECC) to one or more blocks of a blockchain, obtaining the one or more blocks based on blockchain data received from at least one blockchain node of the blockchain network, and performing ECC of the one or more blocks to generate one or more encoded blocks, wherein a code rate of the one or more encoded blocks equals a minimum number of honest blockchain nodes required by the blockchain network and a total number of blockchain nodes of the blockchain network.
