Transaction-enabled systems and methods for royalty apportionment and stacking are disclosed. An example system may include a plurality of royalty generating elements (a royalty stack) each related to a corresponding one or more of a plurality of intellectual property (IP) assets (an aggregate stack of IP). The system may further include a royalty apportionment wrapper to interpret IP licensing terms and apportion royalties to a plurality of owning entities corresponding to the aggregate stack of IP in response to the IP licensing terms and a smart contract wrapper. The smart contract wrapper is configured to access a distributed ledger, interpret an IP description value and IP addition request, to add an IP asset to the aggregate stack of IP, and to adjust the royalty stack.

The present disclosure generally relates to techniques for managing contextual transactions. In some examples, at a sender electronic device, a first user provides authorization to purchase an item for a second user. In some examples, at a recipient device, the second user selects one or more attributes for the item and requests to claim the item. In some examples, an electronic device displays a representation of an item and a purchase affordance for purchasing the item using a payment system that is available on the electronic device.

In one aspect, an interactive system is disclosed that includes a first sex toy including a sensor that is configured to be engaged by a first user. Manipulation of the first sex toy is detected by the sensor and triggers the interactive system to provide compensation to a second user. In another aspect, a wristband sensor is provided that is configured to attach to a first user's body and the sensor is configured to send signals to a central server which determines compensation for a second user.

Systems and methods for transferring value. A method includes posting, by a user device to a blockchain, a deposit transaction comprising a deposit value and conditions and updating, by the user device, a state according to a transaction amount. The method also includes transmitting, by the user device, a state update of the state to a server computer and responsive to transmitting the state update, and receiving, by the user device, a payment complete message comprising a tuple from the server computer. The method also includes verifying, by the user device, the conditions and processing, by the user device, a server deposit transaction on the blockchain in response to verifying.

The present disclosure describes transaction-enabling systems and methods. A system can include a facility including a core task including a customer relevant output and a controller. The controller may include a facility description circuit to interpret a plurality of historical facility parameter values and corresponding facility outcome values and a facility prediction circuit to operate an adaptive learning system, wherein the adaptive learning system is configured to train a facility production predictor in response to the historical facility parameter values and the corresponding outcome values. The facility description circuit also interprets a plurality of present state facility parameter values, wherein the trained facility production predictor determines a customer contact indicator in response to the plurality of present state facility parameter values and a customer notification circuit provides a notification to a customer in response.

A user interface that captures the user input of payment amount during real-time online events (e.g. live podcasts, live stream videos, online games). The user utilizes their personal computer or mobile device to drag a graphic object displayed in the user interface. The amount of fund to be sent is proportional to the time length of the user's drag motion. The user interface allows users to control the input value by timing the release of the graphic object. Further, a component to display count up of input value may be utilized as part of the user interface to provide user feedback.

A consumer may initiate a transaction using a transaction account. The transaction account issuer may transmit a notification to the consumer that the transaction has been authorized. The consumer may select requestees with whom to split the transaction. The transaction account issuer may transmit notifications to requestees to request payment from the requestees. The transaction account issuer may transfer the payment from a transaction account of the requestee to the consumer's transaction account.

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.

In one embodiment, a payment service system may receive a request to split a bill between two or more peer users. The request may include information identifying at least the two or more peer users and an amount of the bill to be split. The two or more peer users may be identified based on determining a presence of two or more mobile devices that are respectively associated with the two or more peer users. The payment service system may send a payment request to each mobile device associated with the two or more peer users. The payment service system may receive a response, which may indicate the respective user's approval of a specified amount for payment of a portion of the bill associated with the user. The payment service system may cause a funds transfer based on specified amounts approved by the two or more peer users.

Intelligent bundling of multiple loans is described. In an example, server computing device(s) can receive a request for a first loan to enable a buyer to purchase a first item from a first merchant and can generate the first loan based at least in part on determining that the buyer purchased the first item. The first loan can be associated with a balance based on an actual purchase price of the first item. The server computing device(s) can determine to bundle repayment of the first loan with at least a second loan, and based on determining to bundle repayment of the first loan and at least the second loan, the server computing device(s) can repay at least a portion of the first loan and at least a portion of the second loan via a single payment from an account of the buyer.
