Abstract

Aspects of the disclosure are directed to a method for use on a blockchain network that includes an accounting node subnetwork having accounting nodes configured to record a data block onto a blockchain and a service node having service nodes configured to verify data blocks recorded by the accounting nodes onto the blockchain. The method can include generating a signature based on transaction information to be included in a data block to be added onto the blockchain by using a key specific to the accounting node. The method can further include adding the transaction information and the generated signature to the data block and adding the data block onto the blockchain, and transmitting the signature to the service nodes in the service node subnetwork, so that the service nodes perform signature verification on the signature based on the key specific to the accounting node.
