1. A computer-implemented method for processing a global naming system with blockchains on a computer network, the method comprising:

  • (a) accessing and processing an underlying blockchain, the underlying blockchain comprising existing transactions;

    (b) storing data records in one or more data storage units inside or outside of the underlying blockchain, wherein the data records comprise routing information;

    (c) issuing a new transaction on the underlying blockchain;

    (d) deriving a virtual blockchain by processing the existing transactions in the underlying blockchain and interpreting the existing transactions as a set of virtual blockchain operations;

    (e) creating first binding data between a name, a cryptographic keypair, and a bytestring by processing operations in the virtual blockchain, wherein the operations comprise registrations, data record updates, and name transfers; and

    (f) updating the first binding data by processing new operations in the virtual blockchain;

    whereby a domain name service is provided without a centralized server.
