Abstract

A computer-implemented method for transferring access to, or control of, a resource is provided. The method comprises the steps of providing a blockchain transaction redeemable to transfer control of a resource by providing a data item (S) to the first blockchain transaction, wherein the data item is determinable only by a controller of both a revealable value (s) and a secret value (k), and providing the revealable value to a controller of the secret value to enable said controller to determine the data item. The method may be carried out using the Bitcoin blockchain, or using a combination of different blockchains.
