5. The blockchain-based custom currency transaction system of claim 1, wherein the transaction data is subject to verification by a first verification operation of verifying whether a first value of the first currency amount is equal to a second value of the second currency amount.

6. The blockchain-based custom currency transaction system of claim 5, wherein the transaction data is subject to verification by a second verification operation of further verifying whether a first total issued value of the custom currency previously issued is equal to a second total issued value of the cryptocurrency used in issuing the custom currency.

7. The blockchain-based custom currency transaction system of claim 5, wherein the transaction data further comprises information about a possessed currency amount of a payer who pays with the cryptocurrency, and

wherein the transaction data is subject to verification by a second verification operation in which at least one blockchain node among the plurality of blockchain nodes uses the blockchain data to further verify a value of the possessed currency amount.

8. The blockchain-based custom currency transaction system of claim 1, wherein the plurality of blockchain nodes comprises a block mining node that mines a new block to be added to the blockchain data,

wherein a preset amount of new cryptocurrency is issued in response to the new block being mined in the block mining node, and

wherein a new custom currency is issued, the new custom currency having an equal value to the new cryptocurrency in response to the issuance of the new cryptocurrency.

9. The blockchain-based custom currency transaction system of claim 1, wherein the custom currency comprises a first custom currency and a second custom currency,

wherein the service providing server is further configured to provide the transaction service for the first custom currency and the second custom currency,

in response to the first custom currency being issued in a third currency amount, the cryptocurrency is used in a fourth currency amount,

in response to the second custom currency being issued in a fifth currency amount, the cryptocurrency is used in a sixth currency amount,

wherein the third currency amount is equal in value to the fourth currency amount, and

wherein the fifth currency amount is equal in value to the sixth currency amount.

10. The blockchain-based custom currency transaction system of claim 9, wherein a previously issued first custom currency and a previously issued second custom currency are stored in a designated electronic wallet until a purchase request from a user terminal is processed, and

wherein the first custom currency is stored in a first electronic wallet, and the second custom currency is stored in a second electronic wallet different from the first electronic wallet.

11. The blockchain-based custom currency transaction system of claim 1, wherein the service providing server comprises a service request processor configured to process a purchase request for the custom currency through the blockchain network in response to the purchase request received from a user terminal, and

wherein the process for the purchase request is performed by a first blockchain node among the plurality of blockchain nodes, through a first processing operation in which a custom currency in an amount corresponding to the purchase request among previously issued custom currencies is transferred to an electronic wallet of a user in response to the purchase request received from the service request processor, and through a second processing operation in which the transaction data of the first processing operation is recorded in the blockchain data.

12. A blockchain-based point-type currency transaction system comprising:

a plurality of blockchain nodes configured to establish a peer-to-peer (P2P)-based blockchain network, distribute and manage blockchain data in which a plurality of blocks are connected in a chain form, issue a cryptocurrency using the blockchain data and a point-type currency defined based on the cryptocurrency, and record transaction data of the cryptocurrency and the point-type currency; and

a service providing server configured to interwork with the blockchain network and provide a transaction service for the point-type currency,

wherein the point-type currency is stored in a designated electronic wallet until a charging request from a user terminal is processed, and data of the issuance of the point-type currency is recorded in the blockchain data.

13. The blockchain-based point-type currency transaction system of claim 12, wherein the service providing server comprises a service request processor configured to check, in response to a purchase request for the point-type currency received from the user terminal, a payment result of a commodity currency for purchasing the point-type currency, and process the purchase request for the point-type currency through the blockchain network, and

wherein the process for the purchase request is performed by a first blockchain node among the plurality of blockchain nodes, through a first processing operation in which, among point-type currencies stored in the designated electronic wallet, a point-type currency in an amount corresponding to the purchase request is transferred to an electronic wallet of a user in response to the purchase request received from the service request processor, and through a second processing operation in which the transaction data of the first processing operation is recorded in the blockchain data.

14. The blockchain-based point-type currency transaction system of claim 12, wherein the service providing server comprises a service request processor configured to process a saving request for the point-type currency through the blockchain network in response to the saving request for the point-type currency received from a terminal of a shop and regarding a designated user as a payee, and

wherein the process for the saving request is performed by a first blockchain node among the plurality of blockchain nodes, through a first processing operation in which a point-type currency in an amount corresponding to the purchase request among point-type currencies stored in the electronic wallet of the shop is transferred to an electronic wallet of the designated user in response to the saving request received from the service request processor, and through a second processing operation in which the transaction data of the first processing operation is recorded in the blockchain data.
