Proof-of-Minimum Privacy Leak Consensus Strategy in Blockchain
Abstract: In this study, we propose a novel consensus algorithm to preserve the security and privacy of a transaction. We propose a Proof-of-Minimum Privacy Leak consensus strategy. This means that the competing nodes which participate in the competition to mine the next block should give a proof of minimum privacy leak during its transaction. Only this proof will give highest votes to that node, and it will be elected as the …
