Described herein is a system in which an electronic record is stored within a distributed environment. In this system, a validation node may receive a transaction record from an acceptance node. The validation node may verify that the acceptance node is authorized 5 to participate in a blockchain network, identify a user associated with the transaction record, and append the transaction record to an electronic record. The transaction record may be associated with a digital signature formed by hashing multiple data elements, and then encrypting the hashed data elements using a private encryption key.
