Blockchain storage expansion model based on Chinese remainder theorem

Blockchain stores transaction data in the form of distributed ledger, and its nodes hold copies of current data by storing hash chain. Due to the particularity of the blockchain structure, the number of blocks increases over time and the storage pressure of nodes also increases with the increasing of blocks, so that the storage scalability has become one of the bottlenecks in blockchain development. To address this problem, a blockchain storage expansion model based on Chinese Remainder Theorem (CRT) was proposed. In the model, the blockchain was divided into high-security blocks and low-security blocks, which were stored by different storage strategies. Among them, low-security blocks were stored in the form of network-wide preservation (all nodes need to preserve the data), while the high-security blocks were stored in a distributed form after being sliced by the CRT-based partitioning algorithm. In addition, the error detection and correction of Redundant Residual Number System (RRNS) was used to restore data to prevent malicious node attacking, so as to improve the stability and integrity of data. Experimental results and security analysis show that the proposed model not only has security and fault tolerance ability, but also ensures the integrity of data, as well as effectively reduces the storage consumption of nodes and increases the storage scalability of the blockchain system.
