Abstract

Techniques are presented for a blockchain-implemented method and system of controlling use of or access to a parking space. The method comprises generating a blockchain transaction indicative of a condition on use of, or access to, the parking space, the blockchain transaction comprising a multi-signature script requiring a plurality of signatures for completion of the blockchain transaction; providing a first subset of the plurality of signatures to the blockchain transaction to generate a partially signed signature script to partially complete the blockchain transaction; and responsive to the condition on use of or access to the parking space being satisfied, providing a second subset of the plurality of signatures to the blockchain transaction to fully complete the blockchain transaction.
