| Popis | Blockchain, as a trustless network, has provided diverse benefits for a wide range of application domains, such as enhancing data management in terms of data security, traceability, accountability, transparency, and decentralization. However, the detection of cybersecurity vulnerabilities in blockchain has initiated a debate on whether this inherently trustless technology needs further trust support or not. In this work, we explore mutual trust and trustless cooperation. First, we examine blockchain-assisted trust management to highlight the specific trustless trait of blockchain. Then, as consensus is an important component of blockchain technology, we examine the role of trust in evaluating the trustworthiness of peer participants in the blockchain consensus process and enhancing the growth of a consistent chain. Finally, we derive research findings in the promising cooperation between trustless and trust. |
