Abstract
An example operation includes one or more of receiving view change messages which request a view change from a previous primary peer of a blockchain to the primary peer, identifying that a change to a state of the blockchain is in process with the previous primary peer based on metadata of the received view change messages, verifying that the change to the state of the blockchain corresponds to a latest change to the blockchain based on a received view data message, and transmitting a new view message to following peers which includes the in-process change to the state of the blockchain.
