Various embodiments of the present application are directed towards systems and methods for hybrid blockchain control. According to some embodiments a method for hybrid blockchain control, an update to a distributed blockchain is received from a blockchain system. The blockchain system includes multiple nodes individually storing copies of the distributed blockchain and individually updating the copies by a consensus process. A determination is made as to whether the distributed blockchain has been fraudulently modified based on the received update. In response to determining the distributed blockchain has been fraudulently modified: 1) a corrective block is disseminated to the blockchain system to trigger the consensus process on the nodes; and 2) a predefined override in the consensus process is invoked to update the copies of the distributed blockchain in a manner that bypasses an illegitimate block. Further, the predefined override is invoked while the consensus process processes the corrective block.

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 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.

A method is disclosed. The method includes: a) receiving node identifiers from nodes of a plurality of nodes in a computer network; b) determining a plurality of node committees in a sampler graph comprising a plurality of nodes, wherein the node is present in a node committee in the plurality of node committees; c) and i) generating a random string; ii) performing a proof of work process using the random string and a hash function; iii) if the proof of work process yields a solution that is acceptable, then broadcasting the solution to all other nodes in the plurality of nodes, wherein the other nodes verify the solution; and iv) if the other nodes verify the solution, the node is elected to a subcommittee for the node committee, wherein the subcommittee updates the sampler graph; and d) repeating steps b) and c) until a leader committee is determined.

Various aspects of the disclosure relate to using a verifiable and distributed encoding as a digital currency (e.g., cryptocurrency). According to some embodiments, systems and methods can be executed to transfer cash or “hard” currency responsive to exchange of cryptocurrency supported by blockchain technology. In further example, the systems and methods are tailored to operate within a specified/defined community that ensures the efficient operation of the system by ensuring liquidity of the transfer. According to one embodiment, the system is configured to distribute stable coin, issuing the coin at a discounted value (e.g., relative to a redemption or cash equivalent face value). For example, by issuing coin at a discount the system automatically facilitates peer-to-peer physical cash transfers.

A diamond asset comprising one or more diamonds and an encryption chip is used to asset-back a cryptographic token that can be used to conduct transactions. The cryptographic token is written to a blockchain using a smart contract that is configured to enable a transaction associated with the token in response to two or more of: a signature by the encryption chip, a signature by the owner of the diamond asset, and a validation of a visual layout of the diamond asset.

The invention provides a secure method for exchanging entities via a blockchain. The invention incorporates tokenisation techniques, and also techniques for embedding metadata in a redeem script of a blockchain transaction. Embodiment(s) provide a method of: generating a first script, the first script comprising: a first set of metadata associated with a first invitation for the exchange of a first entity by a first user, the first set of metadata comprising an indication of the first entity to be offered for exchange and a first location condition for the exchange, a first user public key (P1A) associated with the first user, wherein the first user public key (P1A) is part of an asymmetric cryptographic pair comprising the first user public key (P1A) and a first user private key (V1A). The script may further comprise and a first third-party public key (P1T) associated with a first third-party, wherein the first third-party public key (P1T) is part of an asymmetric cryptographic pair comprising the first third-party public key (P1T) and a first third-party private key (V1T) The method further comprises the steps of hashing the first script to generate a first script hash and publishing the first script and the first script hash on a distributed hash table (DHT).

Arrangements for controlling access to a protected entity include receiving a redirected client request to access the protected entity that includes a public key of the client; granting, in response to the received redirected request, access tokens of a first type to a client using the public key of the client; identifying a conversion transaction identifying a request to convert the first type of access tokens with access tokens of a second type, the transaction designating the protected entity; determining a conversion value for converting the first-type access tokens into second-type access tokens based on at least one access parameter; converting, using the conversion value, a first sum of the first-type access tokens into a second sum of second-type access tokens; and granting the client access to the protected entity when the sum of second-type of access tokens is received as a payment from the protected entity.

A system for transacting in an environment with intermittent connectivity via a network backbone to a blockchain. A merchant device transmits a set of credentials for an ad hoc network to a buyer device and establishes a private peer-to-peer ad hoc network connection with the buyer device. It then conducts a transaction with the buyer device via the private peer-to-peer ad hoc network. If no network connection is available to a transaction blockchain, the merchant device stores a record of the transaction until such network becomes available and later sends the record of the transaction to the transaction blockchain.

A system is provided for controlling privacy in an exchange of an asset. The system receives an offer query of an offeror that includes an offeror reveal condition, an asset identifier of the asset, and offeror terms of exchange. The system accesses an offeree reveal condition and offeree terms of exchange for the asset. The system determines whether the offeror reveal condition and the offeree reveal condition are satisfied and determines whether the offeror terms of exchange and the offeree terms of exchange are satisfied. When the offeror reveal condition, the offeree reveal condition, the offeror terms of exchange, and the offeree terms of exchange are satisfied, the system reveals the offeror to the offeree and the offeree to the offeror.
