SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CREATING A MULTI-BRANCHED BLOCKCHAIN WITH CONFIGURABLE PROTOCOL RULES

摘要

The present invention generally relates to blockchain technology. Specifically, this invention relates to creating a blockchain called a slidechain that allows for multiple valid branches or forks to propagate simultaneously with a customized set of protocol rules embedded in and applied to each fork chain that branches from another chain. The invention generally provides a computer-implemented method for accessing, developing and maintaining a decentralized database through a peer-to-peer network, to preserve the original state of data inputs while adapting to changing circumstances, user preferences, and emerging technological capabilities.
