  • Layered recording networks
    Patent number: 12316761
    Abstract: A method for providing interactive recording networks is disclosed. Multiple child networks can be established, each child network being coordinated by a respective coordinating entity. Each coordinating entity can also participate in a central parent network. A data package can be sent from one network to another. When a data package is sent to another network, additional data can be added to indicate that the data package is being escalated.

  • SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR RECORDING DATA REPRESENTING MULTIPLE INTERACTIONS
    Publication number: 20240265007
    Abstract: A method for combining multiple interactions into a single record entry is disclosed. A data package can be created that represents a set of interactions, and each entity associated with an interaction can review the data package. Each entity can indicate agreement with the interactions by digitally signing the data package. Once signed by each involved entity, the data package can be stored in a record such as a blockchain.

  • Event communication and verification through a blockchain network
    Patent number: 12022006
    Abstract: A method for verifying that event can take place before the event is executed is disclosed. A verification system is incorporated into an event processing network, such that the verification system can identify newly proposed events and determine whether they can be completed. The verification system can inform the network about verification results through distributed blockchain records. Other changes in event status can also be communicated through and stored in blockchain records.

  • Network topology
    Patent number: 12015697
    Abstract: A network topology is provided that includes multiple data centers for building blockchain blocks. The data centers can process different subgroups of blocks, and then send updates to one another with information about new blocks. Additionally, some data centers may protect sensitive block body information, and instead may only share block headers.
