Summary:Disclosed is a method capable of reliably authenticating a location of a user using a blockchain. According to the present invention, the user converts a random value received from multiple nodes and registers the random value in the blockchain, and then the nodes disclose the random value to the blockchain, so that the user can easily authenticate his/her location and the time at which he/she was at the location. As a result, by using the present invention, Fintech companies or online to offline (O2O) service providers can reliably authenticate and use both the location and time of the user. 블록체인을 이용하여 사용자의 위치를 신뢰성있게 인증할 수 있는 방법이 개시된다. 복수의 노드들로부터 받은 랜덤값을 사용자가 변환하고 블록체인에 등록시키고, 이후 노드들이 해당 랜덤값을 블록체인에 공개함으로써, 사용자는 쉽게 자신의 위치와 해당 위치에 있었던 시간을 인증받을 수 있고, 결과적으로 본 발명을 활용하면 핀테크 기업이나 O2O 서비스제공자들이 사용자의 위치와 시간을 모두 신뢰성있게 인증하여 사용할 수 있는 장점이 있다.
