Abstract
The disclosed technology teaches a method for delegating user access to one of a set of decentralized networked nodes that share a private permissioned blockchain data structure or a decentralized personal ledger. The method also includes a credentialing logic configured to receive from one of a set of decentralized networked nodes, authority to access a network node to invoke services that conduct operations using a private permissioned blockchain data structure or decentralized personal ledger to which access has been limited to users authorized by one of the set of decentralized networked nodes; and an access delegation logic configured to create a delegation of at least some of the authority to access the network node for a limited duration of time and to send the delegation to a recipient identified to receive delegated authority.
