  • Patent number: 11734761
    Abstract: A system and method are provided for intentionally delaying an execution of an executable instruction by determining if a current executable instruction is received from a predefined source for which all executable instructions are to be intentionally delayed. When so, the system sets a sequence time associated with the instruction equal to a receipt time plus a delay time. The system saves the instruction in an intentional delay queue for future execution. When the current executable instruction is received from a source that is not the predefined source, the system determines if a condition for immediate processing of the current executable instruction is present. When so, the system executes the instruction immediately. Otherwise, it performs an intentional delay determination that determines whether the current executable instruction has been intentionally delayed. When the current executable instruction has been intentionally delayed, the system executes the instruction immediately.

  • Patent number: 11727398
    Abstract: Example embodiments relate to methods of proving digital assets. The method includes identifying users on an asset transaction platform. The method includes generating a snapshot for each identified user at a first time. Each snapshot includes a user identity and user assets amount for the user at the first time. The user assets amount is a total amount of digital assets held by the user on the asset transaction platform at the first time. The method includes transforming each snapshot into a string combined hash value. Each string combined hash value is generated by hashing one of the snapshots of the user identity and the user assets amount for the first time. The method includes generating a merkle tree. The merkle tree includes a leaf node for each of the string combined hash values. The method includes performing an audit process of the asset transaction platform for the first time.
