The disclosure relates to a method, apparatus and system for sharing files, and mainly relates to the technical field of computers. One specific implementation mode of the method comprises: acquiring files to be shared, and uploading, on a blockchain, formed compressed file packages; generating by calculation a root hash value in accordance with file names of the compressed packages and hash values thereof; and acquiring respective compressed file packages in a blockchain in accordance with the root hash value. The technical problem of an excessive burden of network resources caused by a large number of files is partially overcome by compressing a plurality of files into compressed file packages, and the file uploading and sharing efficiencies are increased by uploading the respective compressed file packages on the blockchain concurrently; the files are stored or updated, and the root hash value is shared by using data structures such as a binary tree structure, a multi-way tree structure, and a dynamic tree structure to acquire, by the root hash value and respective node hash values, the shared files, which improves the security of the files.

File sharing method, device, and system

A file sharing method, apparatus, and system, mainly relate to the technical field of computers. The method comprises: obtaining a file to be shared; concurrently transmitting the shared file compression packages onto a blockchain; forming data blocks according to a compressed package file name and a hash value thereof, wherein the data blocks comprise the hash value of a previous data block; using the hash value of a last data block as a root hash value; and according to the root hash value, obtaining a file comprised in the last data block, and then obtaining each file compression package in a blockchain indicated by the root hash value. By compressing a plurality of files into file packages, the present application partially overcomes the technical problem that the burden of a network resource is too high due to a large number of files; the file on-chain and sharing efficiency is improved by performing concurrent on-chain on each file compression package; and a one-way linked list data structure on the blockchain is used to save and share the file, thereby improving the security of the file.
