Efficient and secure privacy protection scheme and consensus mechanism in MEC enabled e-commerce consortium blockchain

The application of blockchain technology to the field of e-commerce has solved many dilemmas, such as low transparency of transactions, hidden risks of data security and high payment costs. Mobile edge computing(MEC) can provide computational power for blockchain, and can meet the demand for high real-time and low latency in e-commerce transaction systems. However, there are still some constraints in the MEC enabled e-commerce consortium blockchain, such as the leakage of user privacy information, low security of consensus algorithm and other security issues. In this paper, we propose a secure transaction model suitable for MEC enabled e-commerce consortium blockchain, aiming to ensure the efficiency of system transaction processing while improving the security of users’ privacy information and transaction data. The model adopts the lightweight Paillier encryption algorithm to protect the security of user privacy information and transaction data to prevent the leakage of user privacy information, and optimizes the security of leader election phase of Raft consensus algorithm by introducing the shamir secret sharing protocol to improve the anti-Byzantine failure capabilities of Raft consensus algorithm.

OPTIMAL CENTRAL BANK DIGITAL CURRENCY DESIGN FOR EMERGING ECONOMIES

The growth of digitalisation presents the possibility for Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) to emerge as a secure and efficient payment method. However, despite the benefits, CBDC implementation needs to be adapted to the capabilities and needs of each country. This study uses meta-strength, weakness, opportunity, and threat (meta-SWOT) analysis to assess the internal strengths and weaknesses, as well as the external opportunities and threats, to determine the most optimal CBDC design for emerging economies. In analysing internal aspects, CBDC allows for an efficient payment system, followed by a more effective monetary policy. Furthermore, the technology creates the possibility to boost financial inclusion and trace many illicit activities. However, to achieve that, high investment costs and privacy issues must be accommodated, followed by technological risks such as the digital divide and electrical outages. Turning to external aspects, growing technology, the network effect, enthusiasm for CBDC, and the impracticality of cash usage have become catalysts for CBDC development. Despite these opportunities, central banks should be wary of the threat of cyberattacks, quickening bank disintermediation, legal issues within their respective countries, and competition with private crypto companies. Altogether, the most optimal CBDC design in emerging economies is retail and wholesale coverage, interest-bearing (wholesale) and noninterest-bearing (retail) remuneration, account-based and token-based paymentsystems, a traceable degree of anonymity, hybrid architecture, a Decentralised Ledger Technology (DLT) ledger system, and domestic and cross-border scope. These results are supported by rigorous examination of global CBDC research and development.
