Claim 0:
1. A method by a miner system in a blockchain environment, the miner system including (i) a database table including a set of randomly distributed table entries, and (ii) a hardware processor including a cache memory that is smaller in size than the database table, the method comprising the steps of:
(A) receiving a blockchain transaction data; and
(B) performing a proof-of-work algorithm comprising:
(i) obtaining a nonce;
(ii) using a hashing algorithm, generating a hash value based on the received blockchain transaction data and on the obtained nonce;
(iii) identifying a location in the database table corresponding to a random value;
(iv) obtaining a table entry at the identified location;
(v) generating a randomized hash value using the obtained table entry; and
(vi) producing a proof-of-work output if the generated randomized hash value meets a predetermined criterion;, wherein a time delay in arriving at the proof-of-work output is based mostly on the hardware processor incurring an at least one cache miss.
