A system, method, and apparatus for decentralized e-commerce and related transactions are provided. A computing system is configured to generate buyer and seller digital wallets on a distributed ledger, receive listings for products sales from a seller electronic device, display listings for sale, and receive requests to purchase any of the listings from a buyer electronic device. A computing system is configured to chain a new block of data to a previous block of related data each time an inquiry, transaction, or other interaction with data contained with a digital wallet, such as currency or product or service listings, are received. The computing system is further operative to authenticate, display, and even translate communications transmitted and received by and between buyer/seller user electronic devices.

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.
