Described is a reactive hierarchical blockchain architecture, system, and methodology for Global Trade Management (GTM). The system includes a comprehensive suite of GTM applications and leverages multi-national content to deliver efficient cross-boarder transactions anywhere in the world. The tiered computer-implemented system and method allow development of distributed GTM blockchain solutions capable of processing enormous amounts of global content at scale to meet huge transaction volume. The hierarchical blockchain architecture further assures scalability of the GTM solutions described herein by reducing the need for performing extensive calculations on multiple blockchain nodes. The GTM blockchain systems can be standalone or they can feed information into on or more main International Trade (ITC) blockchains. Smart contracts for specific GTM operations are segregated among appropriate childchains and verified by integrated GTM applications executed on permissioned nodes. Various embodiments can store, analyze, and track GTM endorsements and events to help coordinate and maintain contractual obligations of service partners as well as monitor their performance.
