1. A method comprising:
receiving sensor data generated by a plurality of sensors of a machine;
identifying a request associated with the machine;
generating a credential that uniquely identifies the machine;
activating a machine account using the credential, the machine uses the machine account to complete tasks, wherein at least one task of the tasks is related to the request and at least one of the tasks is a blockchained task;
indicating, based on the sensor data and the credential, the machine's level of access to the tasks, wherein the level of access is managed by a blockchain network; and
storing a validation record indicating the machine is validated for the blockchained task based on a machine permission value.
