Abstract

The application provides a method, apparatus, and electronic device for implementing blockchain-based transactions. The method comprises: determining a plurality of blockchain-based transactions to be executed among a transaction-initiating party, a transaction-relay party, and a transaction-target party in a blockchain; generating common transaction data and first independent transaction data, wherein: the common transaction data is related to the plurality of blockchain-based transactions, and the first independent transaction data is related to one or more of the plurality of blockchain-based transactions involving the transaction-initiating party; obtaining second independent transaction data, wherein: the second independent transaction data is related to one or more of the plurality of blockchain-based transactions involving the transaction-relay party; and submitting a consolidated transaction related to the plurality of blockchain-based transactions to the blockchain, wherein the consolidated transaction comprises the common transaction data, the first independent transaction data, and the second independent transaction data.

determining the plurality of blockchain-based transactions to be executed among the transaction-initiating party, the transaction-relay party, and the transaction-target party in the blockchain based on the transaction path.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein:

the transaction-initiating party is associated with a first blockchain account address, the transaction-relay party is associated with a second blockchain account address, and the transaction-target party is associated with a third blockchain account address; and

each of the plurality of blockchain-based transactions is related to two or more of the first blockchain account address, the second blockchain account address, and the third blockchain account address.

4. The method of claim 1 , before obtaining the second independent transaction data, further comprising:

sending the common transaction data to a computing device associated with the transaction-relay party via an off-chain channel, for the computing device associated with the transaction-relay party to verify the common transaction data.

5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the second independent transaction data is generated by the computing device associated with the transaction-relay party in response to a successful verification of the common transaction data, and obtaining the second independent transaction data comprises:

receiving the second independent transaction data from the computing device associated with the transaction-relay party via the off-chain channel.

6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

generating a first signature based on a private key of the transaction-initiating party, wherein the first signature endorses the common transaction data and the first independent transaction data, or endorses the consolidated transaction; and

submitting the first signature and the consolidated transaction in association with each other to the blockchain.

7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

obtaining a second signature generated by a computing device associated with the transaction-relay party based on a private key of the transaction-relay party; and

the second signature endorses the common transaction data and the second independent transaction data.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein: the common transaction data comprises a transaction amount of each of the plurality of blockchain-based transactions.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first independent transaction data comprises one or more first input assets of the transaction-initiating party corresponding to the one or more blockchain-based transactions involving the transaction-initiating party; and

the second independent transaction data comprises one or more second input assets of the transaction-relay party corresponding to the one or more blockchain-based transactions involving the transaction-relay party.

10. The method of claim 1 , wherein: the first independent transaction data comprises one or more first change output assets of the transaction-initiating party corresponding to the one or more blockchain-based transactions involving the transaction-initiating party; and

the second independent transaction data comprises one or more second change output assets of the transaction-relay party corresponding to the one or more blockchain-based transactions involving the transaction-relay party.

11. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first independent transaction data comprises a first range proof, and the second independent transaction data comprises a second range proof.

12. The method of claim 1 , wherein: the first independent transaction data comprises a proof that an input and an output of each of the one or more blockchain-based transactions involving the transaction-initiating party are equal; and

the second independent transaction data comprises a proof that an input and an output of each of the one or more blockchain-based transactions involving the transaction-relay party are equal.

13. The method of claim 1 , wherein: the first independent transaction data comprises a proof that an account balance of the transaction-initiating party is not smaller than a total transaction amount of the one or more blockchain-based transactions involving the transaction-initiating party; and

the second independent transaction data comprises a proof that an account balance of the transaction-relay party is not smaller than a total transaction amount of the one or more blockchain-based transactions involving the transaction-relay party.

14. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

obtaining third transaction data, wherein the third transaction data comprises a third signature generated by a computing device associated with the transaction-target party based on a private key of the transaction-target party in response to a successful verification of the common transaction data, the third signature endorsing the common transaction data.

15.
