Abstract

A method for ensuring precedence for the processing of a blockchain transaction to prevent loss of cryptographic currency includes receiving a new blockchain transaction by a blockchain node in a blockchain network, confirming the new blockchain transaction including identifying a precedence transaction that was previously conducted and stored in the blockchain that involves both blockchain wallets included in the new blockchain transaction, including the new blockchain transaction in a new block that is generated, and distributing the new block to additional nodes in the blockchain network for confirmation and addition to the blockchain.
