Appl. No.:

17/862390

Inventors:

- Luxembourg, LU
Robert D. Way - Spring TX, US

International Classification:

G06Q 20/02
G06Q 20/40

Abstract:

In a method, computer readable medium, or system for making a payment transaction between a payor having an associated payor computer with a ledger storage for the payor and a payee having an associated payee computer with a ledger storage for the payee in a consensus payment network having a plurality of nodes each comprising a respective computer with ledger storage and relying on consensus determinations, an initiator is provided for making the payment transaction between the payor and the payee, the initiator being either the payor, the payee, or an intermediary having an associated intermediary computer. The respective initiator computer creates a temporary payment transaction consensus subnetwork comprising a set of validation nodes acceptable to both the payor and the payee, the set of validation nodes comprising fewer than all of said plurality of nodes in the payment network. The initiator with the respective client computer processes the payment transaction via the consensus payment network from the payor to the payee based on a determination of consensus by the consensus network.

International Classification:

H04L 12/923
H04L 12/26
H04L 12/24
H04L 29/08

Abstract:

Systems and techniques are provided for a resource distribution system. Selected resource paths in a resource transfer network may be monitored. A quantity of an intermediate resource type to transfer into resource pools in the resource transfer network may be determined. Each of the resource pools may be associated with a leg that can be part of a route with two legs for one or more of the selected resource paths. Instructions decrementing a register in a repository resource pool by the determined quantities of the intermediate resource type to be transferred into the resource pools in the resource transfer network and incrementing a register in each of the resource pools in the resource transfer network by the determined quantity of the intermediate resource type to be transferred into that resource pool when the determined quantity is greater than zero may be generated and caused to be executed.

Robert Way - Spring TX, US

International Classification:

H04L 29/06
G06F 9/54
G06Q 40/04
H04L 29/08

Abstract:

Systems and techniques are provided for a resource transfer setup and verification. A request for transfer conditions for a transfer of resources may be received from a first computing device. A set of transfer conditions may be generated in response to the request for transfer conditions and sent to the first computing device. The set of transfer conditions and an indication of an acceptance of the set of transfer conditions by a second computing device may be received from the first computing device. A transfer identifier for the set of transfer conditions may be generated from data from the set of transfer conditions which may specify a first sub-transfer. Transfer instructions may be sent to a third computing device, including instructions for a sub-transfer specified in the set of transfer conditions. The set of transfer conditions may be stored with the transfer identifier as a transfer record in non-volatile storage.

Inventors:

- San Francisco CA, US
Robert Way - Spring TX, US

International Classification:

H04L 12/911

Abstract:

Systems and techniques are provided for an exchange hosting server. A request for transfer conditions for a transfer of resources may be received from a first computing device at a second computing device. An exchange participant of a hosted exchange at the second computing device that can complete the transfer of resources may be determined. Transfer conditions may be generated. The transfer conditions may include a path including a first sub-transfer and a second sub-transfer. The first sub-transfer may transfer a first resource type from a first resource pool to a second resource pool on the first computing device. The second sub-transfer may transfer a second resource type from a third resource pool to a fourth resource pool on the second computing device. The second and third resource pool may be controlled by the exchange participant. The transfer conditions may be sent to the first computing device.
