The disclosed computer-implemented system and method for artificial-intelligence-based automated object identification and manipulation can include receiving a subsystem request from a third-party entity, the request being related to a subsystem for an object identification and manipulation system. The system and method also includes creating a developer request for a model suitable for the subsystem, the developer request including at least one approval condition. The system and method further includes evaluating a developer proposal received in response to the developer request, the developer proposal including a trained model, the evaluating including determining an accuracy level of the trained model, and the evaluating includes designating the trained model as an approved model if the developer proposal is approved. Also, the system and method includes providing the approved model to the third-party entity in response to the subsystem request.

Disclosed herein are certain embodiments of systems and methods for standardizing a plurality of digital wallet credits, into one digital wallet system. Expenditures of merchant issued credit stored in digital wallets are supported by tokenization of assets. Assets are encoded and represented by currencies tracked on public ledgers. Data is mined from the public ledger, decoded, and presented to users with a unified interface which allows users to view balances at any time of all digital wallets in their possession.

Techniques are described for generating semi-random private transaction identifiers for users that are meaningful to data providers and can be used by data providers to perform internal queries for user data. A user provides input to an identity management service indicating the user's consent to link their user account at the identity management service to one or more data providers. The identity management service stores a group blinded transaction identifier (GBTI) based on transaction identifiers generated by one or more data providers. When the user desires to obtain a service from a service provider, the user obtains GBTI-derived value from the identity management service and sends it to the service provider. The service provider sends the GBTI-derived value (and possibly other information) to the data provider to prove that it has the user's consent to obtain desired data or insights about the user but without infringing the user's privacy.

The present invention is a system intended to ensure the safe and efficient operation of cryptocurrency mining farm based on Bitcoin payment systems that in particular manages its functioning and the operational parameters of its equipment. The system comprises a power supply unit (PSU), a control microcomputer installed in the PSU, logging devices installed on hashboards across the farm miners that log working parameters for the farm, and a logging device to log the operational parameters of the farm that is installed in the PSU; the logging devices support data transfer to miners' microcomputers via a serial peripheral interface, an automatic power-off device is installed in the PSU. The decision-making module of the master is connected to the interface in order to perform emergency shutdown of the farm if its current working parameters differ from optimal.

A method includes receiving a request from a computing device requesting that a digital wallet rendered by a digital wallet application executed on the computing device be recognized and accepted within a secure and trusted data communication system for purposes of financial transactions using a first cryptocurrency. The method further includes verifying that the first cryptocurrency is a valid form of cryptocurrency in accordance with a validation protocol. When the first cryptocurrency is valid, the method further includes establishing a per unit value of the first cryptocurrency based on a per unit value of a known and trusted cryptocurrency of the system, obtaining a set of units of collateral cryptocurrency for a plurality of units of first cryptocurrency based on the established per unit value of the first cryptocurrency, and storing the set of units of collateral cryptocurrency in a secure stake pool for transactions utilizing the first cryptocurrency.

A method is described for processing a payment transaction using a cryptocurrency wallet. The method involves the following features: an operating state profile of a vehicle is called up, the address is subjected to a plausibility check based on the operating state profile, and a release of the payment transaction is granted if the address bears up against the plausibility check.

A method of performing cryptocurrency transactions requiring a private key includes: establishing a connection from a smart wallet to a user device; receiving a transaction request requiring the private key; disabling the connection; retrieving the private key to a private key memory; processing the transaction; clearing the private key memory; enabling the connection; and sending a completion message. A method of performing cryptocurrency transactions requiring a private key includes: establishing a connection from a user device to a smart wallet; receiving a transaction request requiring the private key; sending the transaction request to the smart wallet; determining that the smart wallet is disconnected from the user device; waiting for the smart wallet to reconnect; and receiving a response from the smart wallet. A smart wallet includes: a storage; a private key storage; and a communication module that is able to communicate with a user device across at least one channel.

Systems, apparatus, and methods are disclosed for controlling internet-connected devices having embedded systems with dedicated functions. A lightweight software that protects the internet-connected devices from security breaches and security threat is installed on the internet-connected devices. The lightweight software sends network traffic data to a management server via one or more rendezvous servers. The management server analyzes the network traffic data and generates a security update. The security update is posted on a blockchain. The lightweight software obtains the security update in the form of a blockchain transaction.

Methods and systems for securely conducting a transaction requiring approval via a personal device of a purchaser is provided. In some embodiments, under control of a payment application executing on the personal device of a purchaser, the method establishes secure connection to a payment terminal of a seller. The method receives via the secure connection transaction information generated by a point-of-sale system. The method prompts the purchaser to approve the transaction. Upon approval, the method sends via the secure connection with the payment terminal an indication of the approved transaction to a digital payment guardian system. Under control of the digital payment guardian system, the method adds the approved transaction to a distributed ledger upon receiving the approved transaction. The method settles the approved transaction and provides notification of the settlement to the point-of-sale system so that the point-of-sale system can close the transaction.

A computer implemented system and a method for providing user related data, such as reputational information, on users of a blockchain involved in transactions is detailed. The method includes an approach for evaluating fulfilment of transactions, particularly in the context of contracts, and then providing a record of that on the blockchain through reputational information. As a result, at a late time, this reputational information can be retrieved. Similar reputational information for other transactions can be retrieved and linked to the same user, for instance based on the use of a hash of the master public key for a user. Aggregate reputational information can be computed from the pieces of reputational information retrieved.
