摘要： A computer-implemented method (and corresponding system) is provided that enables or facilitates the execution of a portion of source code, written in a high-level language (HLL), on a blockchain platform. The method and system can include a blockchain compiler, arranged to convert a portion of high-level source code into a form that can be used with a blockchain platform. This may be the Bitcoin blockchain or an alternative. The method can include : receiving the portion of source code as input; and generating an output script comprising a plurality of op_codes. The op_codes are a subset of op_codes that are native to a functionally-restricted, blockchain scripting language. The outputted script is arranged and/or generated such that, when executed, the script provides, at least in part, the functionality specified in the source code. The blockchain scripting language is restricted such that it does not natively support complex control-flow constructs or recursion via jump-based loops or other recursive programming constructs. The step of generating the output script may comprise the unrolling at least one looping construct provided in the source code. The method may further comprise providing or using an interpreter or virtual machine arranged to convert the output script into a form that is executable on a blockchain platform.

摘要： The invention presents a solution in which blockchain Transactions are created to implement the functionality of a logic gate. The invention may be implemented on the Bitcoin platform or an alternative blockchain platform. The transaction includes a locking script which comprises instructions selected so as to implement the functionality of a logic gate, such as the XOR gate. When the script is executed (because a second transaction is attempting to spend the output associated with the locking script) the inputs will be processed by the conditional instructions to provide an output of TRUE or FALSE. The inputs are pre-processed by one or more computing agents so that they are evaluated to TRUE or FASLE prior to being used as inputs to the script. The second transaction is transmitted to the blockchain network for validation and, if determined to be valid, it will be written to the blockchain. Validation of the second transaction can be interpreted as a TRUE output. Thus, the locking script of the first transaction provides the functionality of the desired logic gate. The invention provides numerous advantages and can be used in a wide variety of applications, such as for the implementation of control systems and unit.

摘要： A method and system of recording multiple transactions between a multiple of users on a blockchain (9), including a first transaction (22) from a first user (5) to a second user (7) and a second transaction (24) from the second user (7) to the first user (5). The blockchain may be, for example, the Bitcoin blockchain. The method may include receiving (110) a first request from a first node (15) associated with the first user (A) to transfer a first quantity of cryptocurrency associated with the first transaction (22) and receiving (120) a second request from a second node (17) to transfer a second quantity associated with the second transaction (24). The first transaction (22) is conditional on receiving (120) the second request and the second transaction (24) is conditional on receiving (110) the first request. The method also includes verifying (130) the first request and second request that includes determining both the conditional steps of receiving the first request and second request are satisfied. Based on verifying (130) the first request and second request, the method includes sending (140) a data output to the blockchain (9) to record the transfers of cryptocurrency associated with the first and second transactions (22, 24).

摘要： The invention provides methods and systems which enable additional functionality to be inserted into blockchain scripts with ease and in an effective and manner. According to one embodiment, the invention provides a blockchain-implemented method comprising the steps of arranging a plurality or selection of scripting language primitives to provide, upon execution, the functionality of a high-level scripting language primitive, wherein the scripting language is associated with a blockchain protocol; inserting the plurality of scripting language primitives at least once into a script; and inserting the script into blockchain transaction (Tx). The high-level scripting language primitive may perform, for example, an arithmetic operation such as multiplication or division. The scripting language primitives may be called op-codes, words or commands, and are native to the scripting language. The scripting language may be Script, and the blockchain protocol may be a version of the Bitcoin protocol.

摘要： The invention comprises a computer-implemented method and system for controlling an exchange process, such as a loan, conducted between at least two parties via a blockchain such as the Bitcoin blockchain. A method according to the invention may comprise the step of generating a first blockchain transaction which includes a redeem script. The redeem script comprises a cryptographic public key associated with an initiating party and metadata which includes a hash of an exchange-related document; a redeem address; and an amount of digital currency. A second blockchain transaction is generated and published to the blockchain so as to spend the digital currency to the redeem address. This provides the advantage that the further transaction will be publically available and thus detectable by other parties once it has been published. The further transaction can provide the information necessary to trigger a response e.g. an offer from another (responding) party who publishes their response on the blockchain. Thus, the exchange process can be implemented via a multi-transaction mechanism on the blockchain rather than an alternative medium. The exchange related document may be an invitation (offer/request) which is stored off-block in a repository such as a Distributed Hash Table (DHT). The invitation may be an invitation to engage in a contract. A smart contract (and associated blockchain transaction) may be formed upon condition that a plurality of participants (e.g. lenders/borrowers) are matched with each other via one or more responses effected via transactions on the blockchain.
