Why Do My Blockchain Transactions Fail? A Study of Hyperledger Fabric
Summary: Formalizes Fabric transaction failure types and introduces HYPERLEDGERLAB with four chaincodes and a workload generator. Experiments quantify how block size and endorsement policies affect failures and evaluate Fabric++, Streamchain, and FabricSharp to provide practical configuration guidance.
