Blockchain timestamp agreement

Abstract:

An example operation may include one or more of receiving a blockchain request from a client application, determining a network latency between the client application and the endorsing node based on a network path between the client application and the endorsing node, extracting a timestamp from the blockchain request, determining whether the extracted timestamp is invalid based on the network latency between the client application and the endorsing node, and in response to determining that the timestamp is valid, generating an endorsement for the blockchain request and transmitting the endorsement to the client application.
