DeepThought is a distributed human-based blockchain oracle that combines voting and reputation schemes. The aim is to validate external information before storing it in a blockchain relying on humans that collaboratively cross-check external information. In particular, the first part of the development shows that our approach achieves greater resistance to voter corruption in different configurations. A full paper on this work has been accepted at the International Conference on Service Oriented Computing 2022.
To compile:
truffle compile
To compile and deploy the contract (remember to check the address in truffle-config.js to match the Ganache one)
truffle migrate
Copy and past truffle migrate command output: contract address into the setup.py code (update the deployed_contract_address value).
To execute DeepThought CLI prototype (remember to check blockchain and contract addresses to match the Ganache ones)
python DeepThought.py
