Abstract
Systems and methods for correlating and referencing blockchains are described herein. An example method may include providing a database configured to store at least one grid. The grid comprises positions referenced by coordinates. The method may include acquiring, by a processor communicatively coupled to the database, a plurality of blockchains. The method may further include mapping, by the processor, the blockchains to the positions within the grid. The method may include acquiring, by the processor, a subset of coordinates ({P}) corresponding to a subset of the positions within the grid and a set of specifications ({S}). The specifications include an instruction for selection of blocks of one or blockchains mapped to on or more position of the subset of the positions. The method may include associating a function F({P}, {S}) with a further position within the grid, wherein the function F ({P}, {S}) operates on contents of the selected blocks.
