Abstract
Techniques for implementing public key infrastructure using blockchains are described. An apparatus may receive, from a introducee principal, a proof-of-work. The apparatus may combine the proof-of-work with an identifier of the introducee principal. The apparatus may generate an introduction of the introducee principal. The introduction may include signing, using an asymmetric private key assigned to the apparatus, the combination of the proof-of-work and the identifier of the introducee principal. The apparatus may publish the introduction of the introducee principal to a blockchain.
