Abstract: The present disclosure involves systems, software, and computer implemented methods for generating new credit accounts for immediate availability for use in current online transaction. One example process includes identifying a request to perform a credit application process associated with a particular user via a client application. A first signal can be transmitted that includes a redirect instruction for the client application to a credit application site to perform a credit application process. A second signal can be transmitted that includes a merchant-specific identifier of the particular user and a request to perform the credit application process. A third signal can be received from the credit application site that includes an approval, a payment credential associated with a newly created credit account, and the merchant-specific identifier of the particular user. The payment credential can be associated with the user profile of the user corresponding to the merchant-specific identifier.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods and systems for quantifying degrees of association between blockchain addresses in a weighted-linked database. The method may include: obtaining a node data set comprising one or more nodes and edges; associating a first node of the node data set with a first weight factor; identifying a first edge of the node data set, wherein the first edge comprises data indicating a source node address corresponding to the first node, a target node address corresponding to a second node of the one or more nodes in the node data set, and a first edge weight; determining a source value for the second node based on the first weight factor and the first edge weight; generating, a risk value for the second node based on the source value; and presenting, on a GUI, graphical depictions of the first node, the second node, and the first edge.

Abstract: The invention provides a method and corresponding system for controlling the generation of a blockchain transaction, and/or the recipient of a transaction output. It can also be used to control and record the ownership of an asset represented on the blockchain without the need for a separate registry of ownership. The ownership and transfers thereof can be handled and recorded without the need for knowledge of the parties involved or their identities. According to one embodiment, the method comprises the steps of identifying at least one transaction (Tx) on a blockchain which comprises: an unspent transaction output (UTXO) relating to a tokenised asset associated with an asset controller; and an input which spends an output from a previous transaction that is locked by a redeem script hash.

Abstract: The present disclosure involves systems, software, and computer implemented methods for generating new credit accounts for immediate availability for use in current online transaction. One example process includes identifying, at a merchant application, a request to perform a credit application process associated with a particular user via a client application. The credit application process is associated with a financial institution, and the merchant application stores a set of user accounts, each associated with a merchant-specific identifier identifying the particular user profile at the merchant. An interactive application is presented within the merchant application, and information associated with the completed application is transmitted to an API associated with the financial institution with the merchant-specific identifier of the associated user.

Abstract: Embodiments relate to systems, apparatuses, and methods for performing transaction signing utilizing asymmetric cryptography and a private ledger.

Abstract: A method for facilitating the exchange of a stable cryptocurrency collateralized by government-issued debt. First granularity parameters are received through a first wallet interface of a first digital wallet. A first restricted use key is generated based upon the first granularity parameters and provided to an owner of a second digital wallet. A second restricted use key is generated based upon second granularity parameters received through a second wallet interface associated with the second digital wallet. Information from a blockchain wallet is accessed using the second restricted use key wherein the information relates to one or more of an ID classification and risk score of the second wallet owner at a level of detail determined by the second granularity parameters. An indication to proceed with a transaction between the first digital wallet and the second digital wallet may then be received through the first wallet interface.

Abstract: In accordance with the present approach, an edition-managing software application may be provided to query registries of client devices for edition information associated with a target software package. When retrieved, the edition information may then be stored in a universal storage location from which the edition-managing software application may generate an edition report that provides an accurate representation of actual installations of each edition of the target software package on the client devices. Further, in accordance with the present approach, a usage-tracking software program may be provided to retrieve a last used date of a target software package on client devices. If the last used date is beyond a threshold time period for the client devices, the enterprise may determine that the target software package is underutilized compared to a desired usage. Then, the target software package may be uninstalled from the client devices and installed on other client devices.

Abstract: A mechanism for verifying digital information provenance and attestation using blockchain distributed ledger technology which reveals unauthorized tampering with credentialed information. Content modifications are detectable leveraging only local edge validation supported by the normative Bitcoin Core cryptographic libraries or equivalent blockchain implementations. The invention prevents unauthorized access, unregulated copy distribution, and orphaned ownership lacking issuer provenance and attestation. The preferred embodiment provides tamper detectable digital content containers supporting credentialing, remote administration, localized validation, distributed access control, and processing instruction signaling. Intermediary third-party services are not required to verify provenance and issuer attestation. Blockchain integrated cryptographic information containers and administrative transactions immutably record the binding between participating parties (e.g.
