The core of blockchain technology lies in the fact that instead of a centralized approach, individual nodes autonomously create blocks, but go through a consensus process so that eventually, all nodes have the same blockchain ledger. The technology used in this process is the consensus algorithm. Additionally, the consensus algorithm also helps solve the issue of double spending. To address this, the consensus algorithms used, such as Proof of Work (PoW), Proof of Stake (PoS), and Delegated Proof of Stake (DPoS), have been examined. Therefore, this paper aims to examine the types of double-spending attacks in blockchain and propose a Delegated Proof of Stake (DPoS) consensus algorithm incorporating Counting Bloom Filters (CBF) to prevent double-spending attacks and collusion among delegates.

The blockchain is the technique which is used in decentralized system instead of centralized system. Its characteristics are anonymous and transparency. However, there are still some traditional attacks. In this paper, we introduced some of the famous consensus algorithm with blockchain: Bitcoin, Algorand, and IOTA. Also, this paper talked about how each consensus algorithm tried to solve those traditional attacks such as double spending attack or sybil attack. Furthermore, if the consensus algorithm does not consider those attacks yet, then the author would introduce additional methods to solve those attacks. Furthermore, this paper proposed the new scenario that can make classical attacks be happened.

In WISA 2002, Ham et al. proposed a one-way mobile payment system. They claimed that the electronic cash of the system satisfies unforgeability and double spending prevention. In this paper, we point out that their system is not secure as they claimed by showing that the forgery of payment scripts is possible.

Blockchain is a distributed ledger-based technology where all nodes participating in the blockchain network are connected to the P2P network. When a transaction is created in the blockchain network, the transaction is propagated and validated by the blockchain nodes. The verified transaction is sent to peers connected to each node through P2P network, and the peers keep the transaction in the memory pool. Due to the nature of P2P networks, the number and type of transactions delivered by a blockchain node is different for each node. As a result, all nodes do not have the same memory pool. Research is needed to solve problems such as attack detection. In this paper, we analyze transactions in the memory pool before solving problems such as transaction fee manipulation, double payment problem, and DDos attack detection. Therefore, this study collects transactions stored in each node memory pool of Bitcoin and Ethereum, a cryptocurrency system based on blockchain technology, and analyzes how much common transactions they have using jacquard similarity.

Deception technology is an extended concept of honeypot, which detects, prevents or delays attacks by deceiving adversaries. It has been applied to various system components such as network ports, services, processes, system calls and database management systems. We can apply the same concept to attacks on files. A representative example of a file attack is ransomware. Ransomware is a type of malware that encrypts user files and ask for ransom to recover those files. Another example is the wiper attack, which erases all or target files of a system. In this paper we propose a defense mechanism against these kinds of attacks by hiding files. Compared to backup or virtualization techniques, the proposed method incurs less space and performance overheads.

The core of the block chain technology is solving the problem of agreement on double payment, and the PoW, PoS and DPoS algorithms used for this have been studied. PoW in-process proofs are consensus systems that require feasible efforts to prevent minor or malicious use of computing capabilities, such as sending spam e-mail or initiating denial of service (DoS) attacks. The proof of the PoS is made to solve the Nothing at stake problem as well as the energy waste of the proof of work (PoW) algorithm, and the decision of the sum of each node is decided according to the amount of money, not the calculation ability. DPoS is that a small number of authorized users maintain a trade consensus through a distributed network, whereas DPS provides consent authority to a small number of representatives, whereas PoS has consent authority to all users. If PoS is direct democracy, DPoS is indirect democracy. This study aims to contribute to the continuous development of the related field through the study of the algorithm of the block chain agreement.
