A Transactional Perspective on Execute-order-validate Blockchains

Summary: An optimistic concurrency control–inspired reordering for execute-order-validate blockchains reduces aborts by pre-aborting unserializable transactions and keeping the rest serializable. FabricSharp (Hyperledger Fabric) and FastFabricSharp (FastFabric) deliver 25%–66% throughput gains over baselines. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
