Abstract
An example operation may include one or more of receiving a blockchain request comprising a timestamp added by one or more endorsing nodes included within a blockchain network, identifying that the timestamp added by an endorsing node from among the one or more endorsing nodes is a modification to a previously added timestamp provided by the computing node, determining a reputation value for the endorsing node based on a difference between the timestamp added by the endorsing node and the previously added timestamp provided by the computing node, and transmitting the determined reputation value of the endorsing node to an ordering node within the blockchain network.
