The "Patent Law" stipulates that inventions and utility models for which patent rights are granted must possess novelty, creativity and practicality.

In the substantive examination of patent applications, novelty and creativity are the key points. We mentioned above that in order to expand the scope of protection, the less content written in the claims, the better. However, there is also a problem, that is, the less content, the more likely it is to be disclosed by the existing technology. Therefore, how to find a balance point? This is an important issue that needs to be considered when drafting claims. It is necessary to strive for the scope of protection and meet the innovation requirements.

When there are multiple innovative points, should they all be written in one claim? After the above analysis, it is obvious that the answer is clear, that is, no.

The above points are not only applicable to blockchain-related patents, but also to other computer software patents. Of course, when writing application documents, you also need to consider other aspects such as wording and logic. In short, a good application document can help the patentee effectively protect its innovation results and bring considerable benefits to it.
