Official RFCs (IETF standards) that mention Blockchain

 

Official RFCs (IETF standards) that mention Blockchain

  • RFC 9518 – Centralization, Decentralization, and the Internet
    Mentions decentralized consensus technologies (such as blockchain) as a countermeasure to centralization, but only in a general, conceptual way. (datatracker.ietf.org)


IETF Internet-Drafts (work-in-progress) related to Blockchain

These are not yet standardized as RFCs but remain active or expired drafts.

  • draft-tu-nmrg-blockchain-trusted-protocol-04
    Defines a blockchain-based trust protocol for future 6G intelligent communication networks. (datatracker.ietf.org)

  • draft-hardjono-blockchain-interop-arch-03
    Proposes an architecture for interoperability between different DLT (Distributed Ledger Technology) networks, focusing on DLT gateways for asset and data exchange. (datatracker.ietf.org)

  • draft-paillisse-sidrops-blockchain-02
    Analyzes the use of blockchain to manage IP address allocation, delegation, and binding. Mentions Proof of Stake as a potential consensus mechanism. (datatracker.ietf.org)

  • draft-urien-core-blockchain-transaction-protocol/09
    Draft protocol for blockchain transactions in constrained nodes. Now marked as “Expired” (last updated in late 2022). (datatracker.ietf.org)


Other RFC-like proposals or research close to Blockchain

Not standardized RFCs, but relevant work exists:

  • RFC 7800 – Money Over IP (proposed, not standardized)
    Proposes a new protocol for transferring money over the Internet. Uses a distributed hash table (DHT) to store transactions, keys, and certificates, aiming for a different approach than Bitcoin. (arxiv.org)

  • Distributed Access Control research (with RFC 6830 reference)
    Suggests blockchain-based access control using Hyperledger Fabric. Access control policies are recorded on the blockchain and referenced by routers via LISP (RFC 6830). (arxiv.org)
