AbstractIn some distributed ledger systems, transaction verification requires consensus procedures and network synchronization, and previous studies have reported that verification overhead tends to scale with increasing request frequency. This paper proposes a lightweight architecture, DLT-DSA (Distributed Ledger Technology – Decentralized Sovereign Access), designed to reduce dependence on global consensus and to pre-determine request integrity at the node level. The model adopts a multi-stage local verification structure using a context-aware mechanism: normal requests undergo lightweight verification based on ROA (Reduced Overhead Access), while anomalous conditions trigger autonomous integrity verification based on SHV (Self-Hash Verification). Proof-of-Concept (PoC) experiments show that the execution time of the verification logic remains within a stable range independent of variations in network round-trip time (RTT) and exhibits deterministic resource utilization under varying load conditions. These observations suggest that partial relocation of verification procedures to local processing can serve as a viable design alternative in real-time response environments.
