The dramatic growth in smartphone malware shows that malicious program developers are shifting from traditional PC systems to smartphone devices. Therefore, security researchers are also moving towards proposing novel antimalware methods to provide adequate protection. This paper proposes a Blockchain-Based Malware Detection Framework (B2MDF) for detecting malicious mobile applications in mobile applications marketplaces (app stores). The framework consists of two internal and external private blockchains forming a dual private blockchain as well as a consortium blockchain for the final decision. The internal private blockchain stores feature blocks extracted by both static and dynamic feature extractors, while the external blockchain stores detection results as blocks for curre
