Abstract
A method for generating a block for a blockchain utilizing an all-or-nothing transform includes: storing, in a memory of a blockchain node in a blockchain network, a blockchain comprised of a plurality of blocks including at least a most recent block; receiving a plurality of blockchain transactions; applying an all-or-nothing transform (AONT) to the plurality of blockchain transactions to generate a plurality of pseudomessage blocks; generating a new block header including at least a timestamp and a hash value associated with the most recent block; generating a new block including at least the generated new block header and the plurality of pseudomessage blocks; and transmitting the generated new block to a plurality of additional blockchain nodes in the blockchain network.
