So I was reading about the KSI blockchain but the resources that I have explored on the Internet were not enough to clear up some questions in my mind which are still bothering me!

Questions:

Whenever a customer requests to participate in the ksi blockchain then he submits the hash of his data to the ksi gateway. Then in return he gets a token, which is basically a proof of his participation. What exactly does this token contain?

Through his token he can later on verify his data integrity as the token contains path in the Merkle tree from his leaf node and way up to the hash in the calendar ledger. How is this path attached to the token exactly, and how is it computed?

Is it first computed at the ledger level and then passed down the aggregation networks and then to the requestor?

  • Ans token contains the hash values of the siblings and the order in which they appear , i.e, either left or right. To recompute the path only these values are sufficient and these hash values of the sibling are passed down from up to down direction i.e, from core cluster -> aggregators -> gateway. – DEVENDRA MEENA May 13 '18 at 21:14
