20220138729 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR DYNAMIC ALLOCATION OF RESOURCES USING AN ENCRYPTED COMMUNICATION CHANNEL AND TOKENIZATION - An authentication and encryption computer system and method are disclosed. An encrypted channel is established with a first device. Transaction information is received over the encrypted channel, including an instrument identifier, wherein the instrument identifier is tokenized, a first amount for item acquisition by a first person, a second amount specified by the first person, and identification information of a second person. An identity of a user of a second device is authenticated to determine that the user is the second person and in response to such authentication, a user interface is provided, including the second amount and an identification of one or more entities is displayed. An instruction is received to distribute at least a portion of the second amount to specified entities. A secure communication is established via remote systems and a portion of the second amount is distributed among respective destinations associated with the specified entities. | 2022-05-05 |
20220138730 | TIME-BOUNDED ACTIVITY CHAINS WITH MULTIPLE AUTHENTICATED AGENT PARTICIPATION BOUND BY DISTRIBUTED SINGLE-SOURCE-OF-TRUTH NETWORKS THAT CAN ENFORCE AUTOMATED VALUE TRANSFER - The disclosure relates to executing time bound activity chains using a baseline blockchain that encodes milestones and a realized blockchain that tracks activity relating to the milestones encoded on the baseline blockchain. Each project managed by the system may be scheduled using its own baseline blockchain, which stores time-bounded activity chains that encode milestones for that project. The realized blockchain stores performance related activity that validates and stores information indicating performance of actions related to milestones and automated transfer of value through the use of smart contracts. Each block of the realized blockchain not only references a prior block of the realized blockchain but also a corresponding baseline block, which encodes a milestone, in the baseline blockchain. Thus activity relating to progress toward a milestone may be recorded on a realized block, which refers back to a baseline block that specifies the milestone. | 2022-05-05 |
20220138731 | LEVERAGING BLOCKCHAIN BASED MACHINE LEARNING MODELING FOR EXPENSE CATEGORIZATION - Systems and methods disclosed herein provide automatic expense categorization of transactions or expenditures based on a machine learning (ML) model trained using anonymized transactional data for expenditures that are stored in a public blockchain. The anonymized transactional data for the expenditure and the expense category, may be distributed throughout the blockchain network and recorded in the blockchain. In some implementations, an expenditure may be submitted to the blockchain network for expense categorization. The transactional data for the expenditure may be anonymized to remove confidential and personal identifying information (PII) before it is distributed throughout the blockchain network. Each participating node of the blockchain network may utilize the ML model to identify an expense category for the expenditure. The participating nodes may provide a consensus mechanism in order to arrive at a shared understanding of how to categorize the expenditure. | 2022-05-05 |
20220138732 | Systems, Methods, and Interfaces for Smart Contract Based Exchanges Via a Blockchain - An exemplary system includes a blockchain system that includes a blockchain, a smart contract template, and a smart contract generated based on the smart contract template, the smart contract executable to facilitate, by way of the blockchain, exchanges between parties to the smart contract. The system further includes an interface system communicatively coupled to the blockchain system and configured to perform a set of operations to provide an interface to the blockchain system, the set of operations including receiving a user input from an application executed on a user computing device, translating the user input to a call to the blockchain system, and issuing the call to the blockchain system. The blockchain system is configured to perform, based on the call and the smart contract, an action on the blockchain that represents an exchange between the parties to the smart contract. | 2022-05-05 |
20220138733 | Methods and Systems for Smart Contracts for Security and Filtering - A blockchain value transfer method including receiving a transfer request, the transfer, executing a first smart contract function to perform data analytics on the transfer request and a second smart contract function to implement a security response responsive to an inconsistency in the transfer request, and recording a result of the second smart contract function to at least one of a SQL database, a NoSQL database, and an analytics service. The inconsistency of the transfer request is a deviation from a learned transfer pattern identified from the prior smart contracts for prior transfer requests. | 2022-05-05 |
