Patent filed by Microsoft that mentions utilising blockchain technology.

I’ll try again…

A patent filing has been found by Microsoft that references some for of validation nodes. From what I’ve seen others mention:

‘it’s a validation system based on the usage of computing power, so not does the node only validate, but it also checks the needed amount of ‘rings’ or computing power needed to run the transaction or program, so this is even more advanced than just their node validation that they have for approving or disapproving transactions before they enter the chain. This is also about allocating the right ‘ring’ to run it.’

I should add there’s a huge chunk of skepticism re this as we all know that hundreds of thousands of patents are filed yearly with most never amounting to anything! Be interesting to see if this comes to anything however should only be seen as a positive whichever blockchain they decide to go with.

I’ve included the link to the patent should anyone wish to examine with a fine tooth-comb!
