Abstract
Methods and apparatus for providing computing services using a blockchain and distributed computing are described. The methods and apparatus allow entities with processing nodes to allow others to contract for and use the computing capacity of the processing nodes without the need for a centralized controller to distribute processing tasks and provide access to the processing results.
