Claim 15:
16. A processor-readable storage medium, having stored thereon processor-executable code that, upon execution by at least one processor, enables actions, comprising:
hosting a first blockchain member of a hosted permissioned blockchain network for a first consortium member of a plurality of consortium members of the hosted permissioned blockchain network, wherein the first blockchain member includes a first transaction node of a plurality of transaction nodes of the hosted permissioned blockchain network;
hosting a shared pool of validator nodes of the hosted permissioned blockchain network, wherein the shared pool of validator nodes includes at least one validator node, wherein the shared pool of validator nodes is shared among the plurality of consortium members of the hosted permissioned blockchain network, and wherein each validator node of the shared pool of validator nodes is configured for blockchain transaction validation based on a byzantine fault tolerance (BFT) consensus protocol; and
hosting a second blockchain member of the hosted permissioned blockchain network for a second consortium member of the plurality of consortium members of the hosted permissioned blockchain network, wherein the second blockchain member includes a second transaction node of the plurality of transaction nodes of the hosted permissioned blockchain network,
wherein each transaction node of the hosted permissioned blockchain network is separate from each validator node of the hosted permissioned blockchain network, wherein the first consortium member is enabled to communicate with the first transaction node via an exposed remote procedure call (RPC) endpoint of the first transaction node and the second consortium member is enabled to communicate with the second transaction node via an exposed RPC endpoint of the second transaction node, and wherein each validator node in the shared pool of validator nodes do not have an exposed RPC endpoint, preventing the first consortium member and the second consortium member from communicating with the shared pool of validator nodes.
