Abstract
In a method for validation of a finality proof in a distributed ledger system network a support node collects a required number of confirmations from the distributed ledger system network indicating that a requested transaction is finalized. The support node generates the finality proof based on the collected confirmations. The support node transmits the finality proof to a trusted agent for verification.
