The Blockchain Oracle Problem in Decentralized Finance—A Multivocal Approach
Decentralized Finance (DeFi) takes the promise of blockchain a step further and aims to transform traditional financial products into trustless and transparent protocols that run without involving intermediaries. Similar to how 2017 was the year of ICOs,

MT $$^2$$ 2 AD: multi-layer temporal transaction anomaly detection in ethereum networks with GNN
In recent years, a surge of criminal activities with cross-cryptocurrency trades have emerged in Ethereum, the second-largest public blockchain platform. Most of the existing anomaly detection methods utilize the traditional machine learning with feature

Formalizing and Implementing Distributed Ledger Objects [PDF]
Despite the hype about blockchains and distributed ledgers, formal abstractions of these objects are scarce1. To face this issue, in this paper we provide a proper formulation of a distributed ledger object. In brief, we de ne a ledger object as a sequence of records, and we provide the operations and the properties that such an object should support ...

Stochastic Modelling of Selfish Mining in Proof-of-Work Protocols
In blockchain-based systems whose consensus mechanisms resort to Proof-of-Work (PoW), it is expected that a miner’s share of total block revenue is proportional to their share of hashing power with respect to the rest of the network.

A Taxonomy for Distributed Ledger Analytics [PDF]
Over the past decade, blockchains and distributed ledger technologies have rapidly evolved. With increasing transaction volumes and the proliferation of decentralized applications based on smart contracts, a need for a deeper understanding arises. We structure the field that we term distributed ledger analytics.

Consensus formation on heterogeneous networks
Reaching consensus—a macroscopic state where the system constituents display the same microscopic state—is a necessity in multiple complex socio-technical and techno-economic systems: their correct functioning ultimately depends on it.

Abstract This research focuses on addressing the privacy issues in healthcare advancement monitoring with the rapid establishment of the decentralised communication system in the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT). An integrated blockchain homomorphic encryption standard with an in‐build supervised learning‐based smart contract is designed to improvise ...

Modeling of Distributed Ledger Deployment View [PDF]
The Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) is a peer-to-peer model of sharing data among collaborating parties in a decentralized manner. An example of DLT is a blockchain where data form blocks in an append-only chain.

Application of Distributed Ledger Technology in Distribution Networks
In the transition to a society with net-zero carbon emissions, high penetration of distributed renewable power generation and large-scale electrification of transportation and heat are driving the conventional distribution network operators (DNOs) to evolve into distribution system operators (DSOs) that manage distribution networks in a more active and
