The invention relates to a method for producing a cryptographically signed transaction for the transfer of an amount of a currency within a blockchain. The transaction comprises one or more inputs and one or more outputs. The method comprises: retrieving the one or more inputs, the inputs being a reference to one or more previous transactions, determining the one or more outputs, each output defining an amount to be transferred to a receiver indicated in the respective output, adding security information, the security information defining directly or indirectly a maximum amount to be spent with the transaction, and cryptographically signing the transaction by adding signature information.

An integration system for a system of platforms includes an orchestration platform, a blockchain transactional platform, a digital transactional platform, a merchant system, a user trust platform, and one or more user devices connected to each other and a distributed ledger and/or a secondary mesh network via one or more networks. The blockchain transactional platform performs accesses and performs actions on the distributed ledger and/or the secondary mesh network. The digital transactional platform maintains transactional data indicative of an amount of first-domain value correlated to a user. The blockchain transactional platform maintains blockchain transactional data indicative of an amount of second-domain value correlated to the user. The orchestration platform manages data exchange, synthesis, fusion, analysis, and transformation between the components of the system, including for the orchestration of transactions.

A network electronic device, method, and computer program product facilitate receiving, via a network interface and a network, transaction information originating from at least one of a merchant electronic system and a consumer electronic device associated with a hard currency transfer from a consumer to a merchant. In response to determining that the hard currency transfer is more than a full transaction amount, a controller of the network electronic device debits a merchant account balance in the digital currency accounting system associated with the merchant to correspond to an excess amount of the hard currency transfer. The controller credits a consumer account balance in the digital currency accounting system associated with the consumer to correspond to the excess amount of the hard currency transfer. The controller communicates an updated balance to at least one of the merchant electronic system and the consumer electronic device to conclude an associated transaction.

A system, method and computer program product for open innovation including an asset valuation device receiving asset information about tangible or non-tangible assets, and generating a valuation signal, based on the asset information; a self-executing code device receiving the valuation signal, and generating a self-executing code signal, based on the valuation signal; an air router device having both a low band radio channel, and an internet router channel for redundant internet communications, and a malicious code removal device for scrubbing malicious code from data received, receiving the valuation signal, and generating a node voting request signal, based on the valuation signal; and a mesh network having a plurality of node devices receiving the node voting request signal, and generating vote confirmation signals, based on the node voting request signal. Computing devices are connected to the node devices to perform problem solving, smart contract processing, and/or cryptocurrency mining.

The present application discloses an information processing method. The method includes: acquiring a resource package parameter determined by a sender client; invoking an interface with a second server, and acquiring a current conversion rate that is between the first-type resource and a second-type resource and is issued by the second server; calculating a quantity of second-type resources equal in value to the first quantity of first-type resources according to the conversion rate, and using the quantity as a second quantity; deducting the second quantity of second-type resources from a second-type resource account of the sender client, and generating at least one resource package, a sum of quantities corresponding to the at least one resource package being equal to the first quantity; and distributing the at least one resource package to at least one receiver client by using the link information.

The present technology relates to information processing system and method, and information processing device and method for realizing a system capable of increasing efficiency while reducing load concentration. Each of the information processing system and method and the information processing device and method according to an aspect of the present technology belongs to one or more center servers. One or more gate controllers different from each other are allocated. Acquired is user data that relates to data about a user corresponding to identification data, and is supplied on the basis of prediction data corresponding to the identification data. Acquired is the identification data that is read from a storage device storing the identification data, and is supplied from the gate controller allocated to the corresponding system, method or device. The acquired user data that corresponds to the acquired identification data is processed. For example, the present technology is applicable to an information processing device or an information processing system.

In one embodiment, a method includes receiving a request for payment associated with a transaction between a first user and a second user, where the request specifies a payment amount in a fiat currency and identifying an indication that the first user intends to satisfy the request for payment using a non-fiat instrument. The method also includes initiating a first transfer of a value corresponding to the payment amount in the non-fiat instrument from a first balance of the first user to one or more service balances of a payment service and initiating a second transfer of a value corresponding to the payment amount in the fiat currency from the one or more service balances of the payment service to a second balance of the second user.

A method for verification of a data value via a Merkle root includes: storing, in a memory of a processing server, a Merkle root; receiving at least a data value, a nonce, and a plurality of hash path values; generating a combined value by combining the data value and the nonce; generating a first hash value via application of a hashing algorithm to the combined value; generating a subsequent hash value via application of the hashing algorithm to a combination of the first hash value and a first of the plurality of hash path values; repeating generation of the subsequent hash value using a combination of the next hash path value of the plurality of hash path values and the most recent subsequent hash value; and verifying the data value based on a comparison of the Merkle root and the last generated subsequent hash value.

The present disclosure describes transaction-enabling systems and methods. A system can include a controller and a fleet of machines, each having at least one of a compute task requirement, a networking task requirement, and an energy consumption task requirement. The controller may include a resource requirement circuit to determine an amount of a resource for each of the machines to service the task requirement for each machine, a forward resource market circuit to access a forward resource market, and a resource distribution circuit to execute an aggregated transaction of the resource on the forward resource market.
