To manage property records using a multi-layered hybrid distributed ledger architecture, identification information for a particular property is obtained and transmitted to at least one participant in a public distributed ledger network for a public distributed ledger layer. Ownership information for the same particular property is obtained and transmitted to at least one participant in a federated distributed ledger network for a federated distributed ledger layer. Transaction-related documents for the same particular property are obtained and transmitted to at least one participant in a private distributed ledger network for a private distributed ledger. The distributed ledger layers are different layers of a property distributed ledger each having a separate set of consensus rules for appending distributed ledger data to the respective layer. This allows for the immutable preservation of royalty terms and conditions for a property or asset using the distributed ledger.

Method and system of performing transactions with a payment card in a managed integrated payment environment comprising an integrated circuit are disclosed comprising interacting with an integrated circuit on a received payment card to obtain card data by a payment terminal and determining whether full online transaction processing of the card data is required. If full online transaction processing of the card data is required, the card data is sent to a point-of-sale terminal, which sends the card data and a transaction total for the transaction to a merchant gateway, which obtains approval or denial of the transaction. The approval or denial is provided to the PIN pad by the merchant gateway via the point-of-service terminal. The PIN pad also receives transaction data and sends the transaction data and card data to a services processor to collect metadata, perform fraud and security checks, and/or encrypt the card data.

The instant disclosure illustrates how the privacy and security of activities occurring on distributed ledger-based networks (DLNs) can be enhanced with the use of zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs) that can be used to verify the validity of at least some aspects of the activities without private information related to the activities necessarily being revealed publicly. Methods and systems that are directed at facilitating the tracking and recovery of assets stolen on ZKP-enabled DLNs while preserving the confidentiality of the tokens are presented herein.

A system includes a purchase portal configured to receive a purchase order from a customer, wherein the purchase order includes a service from each of a plurality of service providers. When receipt of the purchase order is detected, a processor determines first and second ones of the service providers associated with the purchase order; and establishes a trust relationship between the first service provider and the second service provider in a context of the customer. The processor also sends a first request for a first trust artifact to the first service provider and a second request for a second trust artifact to the second service provider; receives the first trust artifact from the first service provider, receives the second trust artifact from the second service provider, sends the first trust artifact to the second service provider, and sends the second trust artifact to the first service provider.

A computer-implemented method of verifying a user's identity comprising the steps of receiving biometric user data, personalized user data, and unique phone data of a verifying user from the verifying user's electronic computing device 102, compiling the biometric user data, personalized user data, and unique phone data of a verifying user into a single user identity data file, encrypting the single user identity data file and generating a data decryption key, and segregating the single user identity data file into a plurality of encrypted segregated user identity data files each independently stored on a first administrator server and a second administrator server, wherein the plurality of encrypted segregated user identity data files may only be aggregated and decrypted upon providing secondary biometric user data, personalized user data, and unique phone data which matches the original biometric user data, personalized user data, and unique phone data of the verifying user.

A method for securing an interblockchain transaction includes receiving, from a first user application, a registration request including a first permissioned blockchain public key and a first permissionless blockchain public key. The method also includes performing, by the processing circuitry, receiving, from a second user application, a second registration request including a second permissioned blockchain public key and a second permissionless blockchain public key. The permissioned blockchain public keys are valid on the permissioned blockchain and the permissionless blockchain public keys are valid on the permissionless public blockchain. In addition, the method includes receiving, from the first user application, a transaction identification, the transaction identification identifying a first transfer transaction executed on the permissionless public blockchain. The transaction identification identifies the first and second permissionless blockchain public keys.

A method for securing a cryptocurrency transaction on a permissioned blockchain, which involves cryptocurrencies of a permissionless public blockchain, includes receiving a join request including a transaction identification. The transaction identification identifies an enroll transaction involving a public smart contract deployed on the permissionless public blockchain, the enroll transaction identifying a permissioned blockchain public key being valid on the permissioned blockchain and transferring a cryptocurrency balance to the public smart contract. The method further includes verifying that the enroll transaction was properly executed, crediting an account corresponding to the permissioned blockchain public key with the cryptocurrency balance, and receiving a send request identifying a second cryptocurrency balance and a second permissioned blockchain public key being valid on the permissioned blockchain. The method also includes transferring the second cryptocurrency balance from the permissioned blockchain public key to the second permissioned blockchain public key.

A secure cryptocurrency transactional system for actuating transactions involving electronic gaming machines and cryptocurrency wallets.

System and method are described for creating and validating identities across multiple blockchains. According to an embodiment, a system uses decentralized resources to receive an enrollment request comprising entity information to create a multi-chain identity of an entity and create an account with a global identifier for the entity and one or more decentralized identities (DIDs), each associated with a cryptographic blockchain of a set of supported cryptographic blockchains. The system maintains a mapping of the global identifier and the one or more DIDs created, share the global identifier and the one or more decentralized identities in a digital wallet associated with the entity. In an embodiment, the digital wallet is implemented as an application to be run on a computing device associated with the entity. The digital wallet stores the global identifier, the one or more decentralized identities, and corresponding cryptographic keypairs associated with each of the one or more DIDs.

There are provided systems and methods for a carbon neutral blockchain protocol for resolving carbon offsetter payments for cryptocurrency transactions. A service provider, such as an online transaction processor, may provide a green wallet and network protocol that provides carbon offsetting fees and payments to carbon offsetters in order to account for carbon emissions and usage when processing cryptocurrency transactions on a blockchain network protocol. A green wallet may be provided, which allows registration of carbon offsetters and use of green addresses to cause cryptocurrency to be processed in a green transaction. A user's digital wallet may sign an initial cryptocurrency transaction and provide the fee to the green wallet. The green wallet may then resolve the cryptocurrency transaction by further signing the transaction and transmitting the fee to a digital wallet of the carbon offsetter over another cryptocurrency processing network.
