Abstract:
Apparatuses, methods, and systems are disclosed for provisioning a remote unit via a smart contract in a blockchain network. One apparatus includes a processor and a transceiver, wherein the processor controls the transceiver to emit a first event in response to receiving a first blockchain message from a first blockchain address and collect a plurality of second blockchain messages. Here, the first event including information about a remote unit and each second blockchain message containing a subscription offer for the remote unit. The transceiver emits a second event in response to receiving a third blockchain message from the first blockchain address. Here, the third blockchain message including user selection of one of the collected subscription offers. The transceiver receives a fourth blockchain message containing provisioning data for the remote unit and emits a third event after successfully validating the fourth blockchain message. Here, the third event comprising the provisioning data for the remote unit.
