We propose a scheme using blockchain technology, as a requestresponse channel for a client-server system, to record both client request and server reply in an audi-table manner. We have implemented a proof-of-concept system on top of a publicly available blockchain testbed. By using a blockchain as a clientserver request-response channel, the request-response sequence can be verified by anybody who has access to the blockchain, provid
