Abstract

An example operation may include one or more of identifying a new entry, receiving one or more new entry signatures to approve the new entry to, such that the one or more new entry signatures each include a signature of the new entry and hashes of previously signed entries for a common block, verifying the one or more new entry signatures for commit by performing a signature verification of the new entry, determining the common block has more than one entry with a hash signed by a same member, and responsive to the signature check being performed on the new entry and determining the common block has more than one entry with a hash signed by a same member, designating one or more previously received entries as verified for commit without performing a signature verification of the one or more previously received entries.
