Various social resource supply systems in China are decentralized, lacking information communication channels and coordination mechanisms. This condition results to low mobilization efficiency, resource scheduling conflicts and poor coordination performance, which highlights the urgency to improve resource sharing capabilities. In response to this situation, this paper studies the fusion mechanism of resource supply system with the expert system as the supervisory decision layer and the P2P (Peer-to-Peer) network as the autonomous decision layer. Based on the location, time and category of resource demand events, a three-dimensional blockchain model is established to describe resource scheduling problems of resource supply systems in different situations. Considering the difference between the resource sharing scenario and the conventional peer-to-peer transaction scenario, a consensus mechanism based on credit certificate is designed. Finally, a prototype system of resource supply system fusion blockchain with limited nodes to participate is built on Ethereum. Simulation results of the prototype system prove that the blockchain based fusion mechanism of resource supply systems is reasonable and feasible.
