BlockTorrent: A privacy-preserving data availability protocol for multiple stakeholder scenarios

As industries across the globe continue to digitize their processes, the need for a mechanism to share private data between multiple stakeholders is becoming increasingly apparent. However, sharing data poses challenges around privacy and accessibility, particularly in the event of disputes between stakeholders with a shared interest, such as a supply chain. Using supply chains as a case study, we present BlockTorrent to address these challenges and facilitate data sharing between supply chain participants. BlockTorrent allows participants to securely share their data in near real-time with other participants without the risk of information leakage or data manipulation.
