1. A computer-implemented method, comprising:
- generating, by a server storing data in a blockchain ledger, compression point information of the blockchain ledger, wherein the compression point information comprises identification information of a specified data block, a server digital signature, and a user digital signature,wherein the compression point information indicates that a specified portion of the blockchain ledger has passed an integrity verification, and wherein the specified portion of the blockchain ledger comprises data blocks in the blockchain ledger previous to the specified data block in the blockchain ledger,wherein generating the compression point information comprisesobtaining by the server, the specified portion of the blockchain ledger,verifying an integrity of the specified portion of the blockchain ledger,generating verification success information and the server digital signature subsequent to verifying the integrity of the specified portion of the blockchain ledger,sending the verification success information and the server digital signature to a client, andreceiving, from the client, the user digital signature subsequent to the client verifying the server digital signature;
compressing data of the specified portion of the blockchain ledger; and
storing the compression point information comprising the identification information of the specified data block, the server digital signature, and the user digital signature.
