Abstract: The various embodiments described herein relate to systems, methods, and devices associated with distributed ledger systems (e.g., distributed ledger technology implemented on a decentralized network) that can be used to handle and manage the distribution and access of data in a manner that preserves the benefits of distributed ledger technology while enabling the private sharing of data. More specifically, the distributed ledger systems contemplated herein involve distributed ledger technology (DLT)-based data management platforms that can be implemented on nodes of a data management network.

Abstract: In some embodiments, systems, methods, and devices disclosed herein enable trusted sharing of private data and/or transactions via a distributed ledger, while maintaining data consistency properties. Some embodiments provide and utilize one or more independent and/or dependent channels. In particular, in some embodiments, one or more independent and/or dependent channels can exist on a single distributed ledger, wherein participants or nodes that are members of a particular channel can view and access the information in a given network transaction. To other participants or nodes not on the particular channel, however, only an encrypted or redacted version of the information can be viewable, thereby not disclosing the transaction information to such participants or nodes. In some embodiments, consistency properties may be preserved even in the presence of selective sharing of transaction information with proofs of validity.
Abstract: In some embodiments, systems, methods, and devices disclosed herein are directed to implementations of one or more smart contracts deployed on a distributed ledger technology (DLT) platform. In some embodiments, implementation of one or more specific smart contracts and/or private data sharing technologies on a DLT platform can provide frameworks and/or solutions to generate a smart UCC platform that facilitates submission and tracking of Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) filings on a distributed ledger or blockchain platform. In some embodiments, implementation of one or more specific smart contracts and/or private data sharing technologies on a DLT platform can provide frameworks and/or solutions to generate a smart company platform for controlling, managing, and/or communicating company documents and/or communications on a distributed ledger or blockchain platform.
