Product ownership registration and counterfeiting determination service provision method, device and computer program using blockchain {METHOD, APPARATUS AND COMPUTER PROGRAM FOR PROVIDING OWNERSHIP REGISTRATION AND COUNTERFEIT JUDGMENT SERVICE FOR PRODUCT USING BLOCKCHAIN}

Various embodiments of the present invention relate to a method, an apparatus, and a computer program for registering product ownership and providing a counterfeit determination service using a block chain.

As fake or counterfeit products are damaging to both consumers and producers (manufacturers), recently, local governments at each level are strongly cracking down on the illegal distribution of counterfeit products that are circulating in the expensive luxury brand market. There is a limit to blocking the distribution of products.

Conventionally, many efforts have been made, such as using QR codes to certify genuine products or manage distribution history, and introducing watermarks or holograms to prevent copying, but there is a limit to achieving the purpose due to the lack of perfect copy protection technology. .

In addition, since it is difficult for consumers to identify fake products with the naked eye due to the development of counterfeit technology, manufacturers have recently developed and provided anti-counterfeiting devices or genuine identification devices that can determine whether a product is genuine by incorporating various scientific technologies. However, even if there is such a forgery prevention system, there is a problem that consumers who understand this do not readily understand how to determine forged goods, or that a separate device or expensive system for separate identification is required.

More specifically, when the ownership registration history for the product includes the first ownership registration history of the first user and the second ownership registration history of the second user, the computing device 100 includes the first ownership registration history included in the first ownership registration history. 1 Using the location information of the user and the location information of the second owner included in the second ownership registration history, it is possible to determine whether the product is forged.

For example, in the computing device 100, a first user registered ownership in Europe and a second user registered ownership in Korea for a specific product, but the ownership registration history of the first user and the ownership registration of the second user If there is no separate distribution history (e.g., the process of transfer from Europe to Korea) between the histories, the product can be determined to be a counterfeit product.

In addition, in the computing device 100, although the first user registered ownership in Europe and the second user registered ownership in Korea for a specific product, between the ownership registration history of the first user and the ownership registration history of the second user. In the case where there is only a distribution history from Europe to the United States, not from Europe to Korea (if there is no distribution history from the United States to Korea), the product can be judged as a counterfeit product.

In addition, the computing device 100 includes the current location of the second user (a user who has not yet registered ownership) who wants to register the ownership in Korea, or the location information included in the ownership registration history of the first user previously registered in a specific product. Is Europe, and there is no distribution history from Europe to Korea, the current location of the second user, the product may be determined to be a counterfeit product.

Here, the computing device 100 is described as determining whether a specific product is a counterfeit product or not by using the location information of a user included in a plurality of ownership registration histories previously registered with the product, but is not limited thereto, and ownership registration Using the analysis result of the history, the possibility of counterfeiting of the product can be calculated in the form of a number (eg, %).

In various embodiments, when obtaining a plurality of ownership registration requests from a plurality of users for one product, the computing device 100 determines that the product that has obtained the plurality of ownership registration requests is a counterfeit product (or may be a counterfeit product). Judged). For example, when the computing device 100 obtains a plurality of ownership registration requests from a plurality of users within a preset time range for one product, the computing device 100 may determine that the product is a counterfeit product. However, it is not limited thereto.

Cold wallet means storing an electronic wallet in an offline storage means that is not connected to the Internet. Through this, in case of using an electronic wallet, the cold wallet is connected to the PC (eg, USB), and the cryptocurrency is stored or transferred using the electronic wallet stored in the cold wallet. In this case, the key of the electronic wallet (eg, private key) is used only inside the cold wallet and is not leaked outside the cold wallet.

The cold wallet according to the disclosed embodiment is a hybrid form in which the existing cold wallet is modified, and the electronic wallet itself is stored in a user terminal or PC, but the key is stored in the cold wallet. After that, the user terminal obtains a key from the cold wallet through wireless or other wired means including NFC, and the obtained key is used in the user terminal (e.g., encryption, decryption, digital signature, etc.) and then discarded. You can take it. Through this, it is possible to provide a hybrid type cold wallet having higher usability than the existing cold wallet.

In an embodiment, a plurality of keys or a plurality of divided key fragments may be stored in a plurality of hybrid cold wallets, respectively, based on a multisig method. Through this, the user may have to contact a plurality of cold wallets with the user terminal using NFC in a preset order, and only when the plurality of cold wallets are contacted in a preset order, a plurality of divided key pieces are restored normally. It can be configured to be used for signatures and the like.

For example, an order of contacting a plurality of cold wallets may be displayed on the user terminal. The order may be randomly generated or may be generated based on a preset means such as OTP. For example, the order may be randomly generated, stored in a server, and transmitted as a message through a preset user's phone number in the user terminal. Through this, the user terminal may display the delivered order and merge key pieces received from the cold wallet based on the order. Therefore, if the order of contacting the cold wallet is wrong, the keys may not be merged normally, and accordingly, the electronic wallet may not be used.

Depending on the embodiment, at least some of the plurality of key fragments may be stored in the user terminal, and the remaining part may be divided and stored in cold wallets. In this case, the key fragment stored in the user terminal and the key fragment obtained from the cold wallet may be merged to reconfigure the key to be used, and then discard it. In this case, even if one of the cold wallet or the user terminal is lost or stolen, there is an advantage that the key cannot be reconfigured unless both are stolen.

Depending on the embodiment, some of the divided key fragments may also be stored in the server. In this case, the user must obtain a key piece from the server through authentication, and obtain both the key piece stored in the user terminal and the key piece stored in the cold wallet to reconstruct the key. Through this, the key can be strongly protected through two physical means (user terminal, cold wallet) and one electronic authentication means (user authentication of the server).

The restored and used keys can be discarded after use, and can be configured to be stored only on a temporary storage medium (eg, RAM) when used.

It can be set as possible (or a reservation for selling and buying). Through this, the value of the stablecoin can be set so as not to exceed a preset amount or range.

Depending on the embodiment, it is also possible to configure the value of the stable coin to change only within a preset range. For example, if the value of a stable coin is set at 1,000 won per piece, continuous purchases at the lower limit (eg 800 won) and the upper limit (eg 1200 won) of a predetermined range (eg 800 won and 1200 won) By setting or reservation to be sold and sold, the value of the stablecoin can fluctuate according to the transaction volume (or exchange volume), but it does not deviate from the preset range, thereby maintaining its stability.

Depending on the embodiment, the value of the stable coin may fluctuate in response to changes in the value of the currency being exchanged. For example, if the value of one stablecoin is fixed at $1, the stablecoin may always be traded only in dollars, but it can also be traded in other countries' currencies. Accordingly, if the exchange rate of KRW per dollar is 1,200 won, the value of the stablecoin can be adjusted to KRW 1,200. This may be performed by the above-described method of selling and buying stable coins, and the range may be adjusted in real time or at a preset period according to an exchange rate that is a criterion for determination.
