Abstract
One or more embodiments of this specification provide a message transmission method and apparatus applied to a relay node in a blockchain relay communication network. The method includes: receiving, by a relay node in a blockchain relay communication network, a plurality of message packets, each message packet configured to record a partial message content of a message to be transmitted; parsing, by the relay node, the plurality of message packets to obtain encapsulation information of the message to be transmitted, the encapsulation information configured to indicate a type of a blockchain message within the encapsulation information in the message to be transmitted; determining, by the relay node, that the encapsulation information indicates that the blockchain message is a block synchronization message; and forwarding, by the relay node, at least one of the plurality of message packets without receiving all of the plurality of message packets corresponding to the message to be transmitted.
