Abstract

A method for expedited confirmation and inclusion of orphaned transactions in a blockchain network includes: receiving new blockchain transactions, confirming each of the new blockchain transactions, receiving a new block accepted for the blockchain that includes only a subset of the confirmed blockchain transactions, generating a subsequent new block that includes at least the orphaned transactions that were not included in the received new block, and transmitting the subsequent new block to one or more other nodes in the blockchain network.
