Blockchain-Based Fair and Fine-Grained Data Trading With Privacy Preservation
Why is this work in the frame?
A frame that forgets how it found something cannot be audited. These are the routes that admitted this work.
Full frame distilled prediction
Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Abstract
In this article, we propose a blockchain-based fair and privacy-preserving data trading scheme that supports fine-grained data selling. First, to achieve fairness for trading participants, by incorporating attribute-based credentials, encryption, and zero-knowledge proof, we design a data trading scheme where a buyer first publishes the required data attributes on the blockchain, and a data seller can demonstrate data availability in ciphertext by only disclosing the required attributes to a data buyer and proving the authenticity of data. A data buyer transfers funds only if the correct key material is uploaded to the blockchain. Second, to guarantee fine-grained data trading and preserve identity privacy, we build a Merkle hash tree on the ciphertexts of data with a signature on its root node, which allows a data seller to split data into blocks and remove the sensitive information from the data without affecting data availability verification. The public key of the data seller is not leaked to the data buyer during the trading. Moreover, different trading transactions from the same data seller cannot be linked. We formally prove that our scheme achieves the desired security properties: fairness and privacy preservation. Simulation results demonstrate the feasibility and efficiency of the proposed scheme.
