Abstract

A server computing device receives a first transaction request comprising computer-readable content and metadata for the content. The server computing device generates a first hash based upon the metadata. The server computing device then generates a second hash based upon the first hash and a content identifier that has been generated for the content. The server computing device causes a block to be added to a blockchain, the block comprising the second hash, wherein a transaction identifier is produced as a result of the addition of the block. The server computing device receives, from a second computing device, a second transaction request that comprises an identifier for the computer-readable content. The server computing device provides the second computing device with access to the content based upon the identifier for the content, the block in the blockchain, and the transaction identifier.
