Blockgraph proof-of-concept

Blockgraph is a new structure of blockchain in which the blocks are interconnected in the form of a graph instead of a chain. Blockgraph has been designed to enable the use of blockchain in mobile adhoc networks and mesh networks by dealing with the problem of network partition due to node mobility. This paper presents a proof of the blockgraph concept using a testbed composed of five mesh routers. The demonstration shows that the blockgraph is created and maintained by the participant nodes in case of network split and merge.
