Abstract: A method for executing a transaction on a blockchain or other distributed ledger that enables a user holding only non-native tokens to execute the transaction. A backend wallet managed by a backend server maintains different native token types for different blockchain types and is used to execute the transaction on behalf of the user. The backend server then reconciles the cost with the user's own wallet.

Abstract: A method for executing a transaction on a blockchain or other distributed ledger that protects the user from other blockchain users attempting to front run or rerun an approved transaction. A backend server searches the blockchain for existing transactions that use the same approval.

Abstract: A method for executing a transaction on a blockchain or other distributed ledger that reduces transaction gas fees. A backend server estimates gas fees based on recent successful transactions and obtains user approval before submitting the transaction to blockchain.

Abstract: A method for using metadata to consolidate two transactions into one to execute a smart contract as a single transaction on a blockchain or other distributed ledger. Compared to the previous two-step smart contract execution process, this one-tap process (such as for staking an amount to a pool) allows specifying a predefined amount to execute instead of an exploitable infinite amount.

Abstract: A method for securing a split private key (such as used with a cryptocurrency or other non-custodial electronic wallet) amongst a password, biometrics, and a social service. The process may use a sharding scheme such as Shamir's Secret Sharing to ensure that multiple key shards must be obtained before the entire private key can be obtained. The user may select the number of shards required to retrieve the private key thereby controlling the security of the account. An additional shard may be held on an encrypted server and allows for account recovery even while maintaining non-custodial ownership of the wallet.
