Blockchain Data Availability Scheme with Strong Data Privacy Protection

Blockchain, with its characteristics of non-tamperability and decentralization, has had a profound impact on various fields of society and has set off a boom in the research and application of blockchain technology. However, blockchain technology faces the problem of data availability attacks during its application, which greatly limits the scope and domain of blockchain applications. One of the most advantageous researches to address this problem is the scalable data availability solution that integrates coding theory design into the Merkle tree promise. Based on this scheme, this paper combines a zero-knowledge accumulator with higher efficiency and security with local repair coding, and proposes a data availability scheme with strong dataset privacy protection. The scheme first encodes the data block information on the blockchain to ensure tamper-proof data, and then uses a zero-knowledge accumulator to store the encoded data block information. Its main purpose is to use zero-knowledge property to protect the accumulation set information stored in the accumulator from being leaked and to ensure that no other information about the accumulation set is revealed during the data transmission. It fundamentally reduces the possibility of attackers generating fraudulent information by imitating block data and further resists data availability attacks.
