US Patent 11252166 Providing data authorization based on blockchain

Disclosed herein are methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for providing blockchain-based data authorization. One of the methods includes receiving, by a blockchain node, a data acquisition transaction submitted by a data user for obtaining target data possessed by a data owner, determining, by the blockchain node, that the data user has obtained authorization of the target data, and executing, by the blockchain node, a smart contract invoked by the data acquisition transaction to issue an authorization token to the data user in response to determining that the data user has authorization of the target data, where the authorization token is sent to a privacy computing platform.
