Abstract
Disclosed are computer-implemented methods, non-transitory computer-readable media, and systems for managing transactions in blockchain networks. One computer-implemented method includes identifying a first Hash Time Locked Contract (HTLC) transaction in a first blockchain network that is associated with a second HTLC transaction in a second blockchain network different from the first blockchain network, identifying a third HTLC transaction in the second blockchain network that is associated with the second HTLC transaction, identifying a fourth HTLC transaction in the first blockchain network that is associated with the first, second, and third HTLC transactions, the first, second, third, and fourth HTLC transactions being related to a cross-chain transaction across the first and second blockchain networks, and deriving hidden information of the cross-chain transaction from information of the first, second, third, and fourth HTLC transactions based on associations of the first, second, third and fourth HTLC transactions.
