Abstract

The present invention relates to a method for enhancing the security and integrity of Proof-of-Work (PoW) systems in blockchain networks. Traditional PoW validation relies on verifying a valid nonce, but this approach is vulnerable to manipulation, as it does not independently confirm the entire computational process. The invention proposes a novel solution that securely validates the full PoW computation, ensuring that miners perform the intended algorithmic steps rather than exploiting shortcuts or using nonces derived from different algorithms. By embedding cryptographic proofs within the PoW verification process, the invention prevents tampering and manipulation, enhancing the transparency, security, and trustworthiness of PoW-based blockchain systems. This method strengthens the consensus mechanism and protects the network from malicious actors, ensuring the integrity of the blockchain.
