Abstract
Techniques for implementing trustless deterministic state machines using a blockchain infrastructure and running state machines concurrently over one or more transactions are described. An initial transaction is created to include at least one initial locking script that includes a first set of constraints, a second set of constraints, and at least one redeemable value. An unlocking blockchain transaction is also created with an input comprising an unlocking script and respective transaction outputs for a first locking script and a second locking script. Upon processing the initial locking script and the unlocking script, the first set of constraints and the second set of constraints are determined. Next, the first and second locking scripts are verified to ensure that they satisfy the first and second sets of constraints. Finally, the initial transaction is caused to be validated at a node of a blockchain network.
