Technologies are shown for secure management of evaluation data. An evaluation value is received from a source entity. The evaluation value relates to an evaluation entity. Trusted source data secured in one or more data blocks on a first blockchain is searched for an entry corresponding to the source entity. Based on finding the entry corresponding to the source entity in the trusted source data, an evaluation score for the evaluation entity is obtained from the first blockchain or a second blockchain. The evaluation score was previously calculated based on one or more previous evaluation values for the evaluation entity and stored on the first blockchain or the second blockchain. A new evaluation score for the evaluation entity is calculated using the evaluation score and the evaluation value. The new evaluation score for the evaluation entity is securely committed to a new data block on the first blockchain or the second blockchain.

Source data secured on blockchains

Technologies are shown for secure management of evaluation data that involves receiving an evaluation value signal from a source, the evaluation value signal relating to an evaluation entity having an evaluation score secured on an evaluation data blockchain and verifying whether the source is identified in trusted source data. If the source is trusted, then the technology involves obtaining a weight associated with the source, obtaining the evaluation score for the evaluation entity from a first evaluation data block in the evaluation data blockchain, where the first evaluation data block is a most recent evaluation data block in the evaluation data blockchain, calculating a new evaluation score based on the evaluation score obtained from the first evaluation data block and the received valuation signal weighted according to the weight associated with the source, and securely committing the new evaluation score to the evaluation data blockchain in another evaluation data block.

Weighted source data secured on blockchains

Technologies are shown for tracking transfer of an item on an item tracking data blockchain, where transfers of the item and the holder of the item are recorded in item tracking data blocks of the blockchain. In some examples, a verification of the item is performed for a transfer and recorded in the data block for the transfer. In other examples, the blockchain stores a unique code for the ticket. Transfers of the ticket are recorded in the blockchain. When the ticket is presented for use, a holder identifier and a presented ticket code are validated against a holder identifier in the most recent block in the blockchain and the unique code for the ticket stored in the blockchain. In some examples, a portion of a resale price of the ticket is sent to an issuer of the ticket.
