【Abstract】By training a machine learning algorithm across multiple decentralized edge nodes, federated learning (FL) ensures the privacy of the data generated by the massive Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices. To economically encourage the participation of heterogeneous edge nodes, a transparent and decentralized trading platform is needed to establish a fair market among distinct edge companies. In this article, we propose a hybrid blockchain-based resource trading system that combines the advantages of both public and consortium blockchains. We design and implement a smart contract to facilitate an automatic, autonomous, and auditable rational reverse auction mechanism among edge nodes. Moreover, we leverage the payment channel technique to enable credible, fast, low-cost, and high-frequency payment transactions between requesters and edge nodes. Simulation results show that the proposed reverse auction mechanism can achieve the properties, including budget feasibility, truthfulness, and computational efficiency.
