Systemized blockchain reconciliation in a hybrid distributed network ecosystem
A method for use in a hybrid network ecosystem comprising an enterprise network and a reconciliation network is presented. The method comprises generating, by at least one first computing node in the enterprise network or the reconciliation network, a first digital facilitator, wherein the first digital facilitator provides one or more parameters for accessing or distributing data on a distributed ledger in the enterprise network, and wherein a private key is used for performing a computing operation, based on the data, in the enterprise network. The method also comprises generating, by the at least one first computing node in the enterprise network or the reconciliation network or at least one second computing node in the enterprise network or the reconciliation network, a second digital facilitator, wherein the second digital facilitator provides the one or more parameters for accessing or distributing the data in the reconciliation network.

CONFIDENTIAL BLOCKCHAIN TRANSACTIONS
A computer-implemented method includes: determining assets held by a remitter, the assets to be spent in a remittance transaction between the remitter and one or more payees, in which each asset corresponds to a respective asset identifier, a respective asset amount, and a respective asset commitment value; determining a remitter pseudo public key and a remitter pseudo private key; determining a cover party pseudo public key, in which the cover party pseudo public key is obtained based on asset commitment values of assets held by the cover party; and generating a linkable ring signature for the remittance transaction.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR BLOCKCHAIN-BASED TRANSACTION SETTLEMENT
A system may include a blockchain network, a trust entity, and multiple user devices. A smart contract of the blockchain network may be configured to receive data from the trust entity and transfer digital stable tokens to a first user's cryptocurrency wallet. The first user may generate a blockchain transaction on the blockchain network in order to transfer some digital stable tokens to a second user. The second user may cash out some of the digital stable tokens via a smart contract of the blockchain network. The smart contract may send an instruction to the trust entity's computing system to transfer fiat currency into a financial account of the second user. A token cross-chain bridge may also facilitate the exchange of cryptocurrency for digital stable tokens.
BATCHED AND SECURE STAKE REWARDS CALCULATION
A method includes determining, by a stake account manager, to distribute rewards to one or more stake accounts of a stake pool, obtaining privately stored stake account information of the one or more stake accounts and a rewards balance of the stake pool, calculating a reward amount of the rewards balance owed to each stake account of the one or more stake accounts based on the privately stored stake account information, and performing a batched and secure calculation technique on the calculated reward amounts to produce a batched and secure rewards distribution summary. The batched and secure rewards distribution summary ensures that each reward amount is calculated correctly and that the privately stored stake account information remains private. The method further includes publishing the batched and secure rewards distribution summary to the blockchain. The publishing the batched and secure rewards distribution summary deposits reward amounts to the each stake account.
COMMERCE SYSTEMS HAVING INTEGRATED DELIVERY FEATURE
Commerce systems based upon cryptocurrency based payment transactions made in a peer-to-peer network include an integrated delivery feature. Consumer users using special purpose cryptocurrency wallet modules of these systems automatically encode delivery information in a payment response conveyed to an e-commerce site along with a cryptocurrency payment and transmit these respectively to the payee and peer-to-peer network for validation. Receipt of such payment responses which include user shipping information stimulate retailer shipping administrative systems into action whereby goods and services are conveyed to a customer's address in view of the successful payment made in this fashion.
COMMERCE SYSTEMS HAVING INTEGRATED ELECTRONIC DELIVERY FEATURES
A method includes conveying a cryptocurrency transaction to a peer-to-peer network, wherein said cryptocurrency transaction having encoded therein an email address and to convey goods or services embodied in an electronic form to the email address in response to receipt of said cryptocurrency transaction on said peer-to-peer network. The conveying of goods or services includes transmitting over the Internet in conformance with an email protocol. The goods or services includes event admission tickets, music recordings, video, text, game content, live event broadcast, software, encryption keys or passwords.
Cross-brand redemption in an exchange item marketplace network
A method includes establishing an agreement between a first issuing server and a second issuing server regarding first exchange items to have an extended use corresponding to a second type of use. The method further includes storing, by a server, the agreement. The method further includes receiving, by the server, a request for use of a first exchange item from a merchant server regarding a transaction by a user computing device for a particular item. The method further includes determining, by the server, whether the merchant server is affiliated with the first or second issuing server. The method further includes, when the merchant server is affiliated with the second issuing server, interpreting, by the server, the agreement to determine extended use parameters. The method further includes processing, by the server and in accordance with the extended use parameters, use of the first exchange item for the particular item.
PERIODIC TO REAL TIME CRYPTOCURRENCY-BASED WORK PAYMENT METHOD
In one embodiment, a computer-implemented method is described whereby cryptocurrency for services being rendered is transferred from an account or wallet of the service buyer to an account or wallet of the service provider at regular frequent intervals, such as daily, hourly, near real-time, or real-time as the service provider is working. In this embodiment, it is contemplated that data with respect to the amount transferred is readily accessible in real-time by both parties.
Systems and methods for cold payment solution
The present disclosure relates to off-line generation, storage, and usage of digital assets, such as cryptocurrency. In particular, methods and systems are disclosed for a system for cold payment of digital assets. In one example, a method for usage of digital assets, such as cryptocurrency, includes receiving at least one public key corresponding to at least one off-line cryptographic key pair, receiving a digital asset, determining a set of amounts for the digital asset corresponding to a user selection, assigning an amount of the digital asset to the at least one public key determined by the set of amounts, and transmitting a payment amount to a payee address corresponding to the user selection.
