  • Patent number: 9928549
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method is provided for opening an expedited account for a user. The method includes receiving a request from the user to make a trade associated with at least one financial instrument, in the absence of an account being opened for the user. The method includes determining a plurality of factors in response to the request, the plurality of factors including 1) a credit worthiness score of the user; 2) a source of capital identified by the user to cover the trade; and 3) a type of the at least one financial instrument associated with the trade. The method also includes opening the expedited account for the user with limited trading privileges, in which an amount of fund for trading is advanced to the user based on the plurality of factors. The method further includes allowing the user to make a trade up to the amount of fund advanced.

  • Patent number: 9648372
    Abstract: Described are methods and apparatuses, including computer program products, for personalizing media content. A server determines content data likely to be requested by users, and generates common sets of information using the content data. The server receives a request for a digital media stream from a client device, and generates a first set of frames which include content data specific to the user and keys corresponding to a selected common set of information. The server combines the first set of frames and the requested stream to generate a personalized stream. The server transmits the personalized stream to a downstream device, which generates a second set of frames using content data corresponding to the one or more keys. The downstream device combines the second set of frames and the personalized stream to generate an updated stream, and transmits the updated stream to the client device.

  • Publication number: 20170085555
    Abstract: The Point-to-Point Transaction Guidance Apparatuses, Methods and Systems (“SOCOACT”) transforms smart contract request, crypto currency deposit request, crypto collateral deposit request, crypto currency transfer request, crypto collateral transfer request inputs via SOCOACT components into transaction confirmation outputs. Also, SOCOACT transforms virtual wallet address inputs via SOCOACT (e.g., P2PTG) components into transaction confirmation outputs. In one embodiment, the SOCOACT includes a point-to-point payment guidance apparatus, comprising, a memory and processor disposed in communication with the memory, and configured to issue a plurality of processing instructions from the component collection stored in the memory, to: obtain a target wallet identifier registration at a beacon. The SOCOACT then may register the target wallet identifier with the beacon and obtain a unique wallet identifier from a migrant wallet source associated with a user at the beacon.

  • Publication number: 20170046689
    Abstract: The Crypto Voting and Social Aggregating, Fractionally Efficient Transfer Guidance, Conditional Triggered Transaction, Datastructures, Apparatuses, Methods and Systems (“SOCOACT”) transforms vote request, vote input inputs via SOCOACT components into vote UI, vote confirmation outputs. A crypto vote request associated with a poll may be obtained from a user. Voter authentication may be obtained and used to determine that the user is authorized to vote. An authentication token and a crypto vote user interface may be generated and provided to the user. A crypto vote input that specifies a conditional vote that includes a set of vote conditions may be obtained from the user. Each vote condition is associated with a vote outcome and an aggregated blockchain oracle. The conditional vote may be instantiated in a socially aggregated blockchain datastructure. A determination that a vote condition has been satisfied may be made and the associated vote outcome may be determined.

    Abstract: The Crypto Key Recovery and Social Aggregating, Fractionally Efficient Transfer Guidance, Conditional Triggered Transaction, Datastructures, Apparatuses, Methods and Systems (“SOCOACT”) transforms MKADSD generation request, trigger event message inputs via SOCOACT components into transaction confirmation, recovery notification outputs. A multiple key account data structure datastore (MKADSD) generation request may be obtained from a user. A set of crypto public keys for a MKADSD may be determined. The MKADSD may be instantiated in a socially aggregated blockchain datastructure using the determined set of crypto public keys. A crypto recovery private key may be associate with the MKADSD and trigger event recovery settings for the MKADSD may be set. A trigger event message associated with the MKADSD may be obtained and recovery settings associated with a trigger event may be determined. The crypto recovery private key may be retrieved and a recovery action may be facilitated.

  • Patent number: 9413758
    Abstract: Methods and apparatuses, including computer program products, are described for communication session transfer between a plurality of computing devices. A first computing device detects a presence of a second computing device in proximity to the first device, where the first device has established a first session with a remote computing device, and obtains first user authentication data. The first device establishes a wireless connection to the second device. A first token is transmitted to the second device. A second token and second user authentication data are received from the second device. The tokens and the user authentication data is authenticated. The first device transmits, to the second device, information indicating a state of the first communication session to enable the second device to establish a second communication session with the remote device, where the second communication session is established using the state of the first communication session.
