Abstract
Disclosed herein are methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for managing blockchain-based centralized ledger systems. One of the methods includes transmitting a timestamp request for a to-be-timestamped block of a blockchain at a time point to a trust time server by a ledger server in a blockchain-based centralized ledger system that stores data in the blockchain, the trust time server being associated with a trust time authority and independent from the blockchain-based centralized ledger system, the blockchain including a plurality of blocks storing transaction data, and disregarding the timestamp request in response to determining that a predetermined time period has lapsed after the time point and that there has been no reply to the timestamp request from the trust time server.
