Abstract
A server in a blockchain distribution network includes a processor and a transceiver operatively coupled to the processor. The transceiver is configured to receive bytes of a transaction from a first peer node. The transceiver is also configured to propagate the bytes of the transaction to one or more additional peer nodes and to one or more additional servers in the blockchain distribution network. The transceiver is also configured to receive bytes of a blockchain from a second peer node. The blockchain includes information regarding a plurality of transactions, and the plurality of transactions includes the transaction. The transceiver is further configured to propagate the bytes of the blockchain to the one or more additional peer nodes and to the one or more additional servers in the blockchain distribution network.
