  • Patent number: 10102510
    Abstract: A method and system of conducting a cryptocurrency payment via a mobile device, using a contactless token to store and protect a user's secret key. A cryptocurrency wallet encrypted with the secret key is received by the mobile device from the token. A cryptocurrency payment instruction is received by the mobile device, prompting for a user credential to approve the instruction. In response the mobile device sends to the token a message comprising the encrypted wallet together with the payment instruction and the user credential. Using the secret key, the token then decrypts the cryptocurrency wallet from the encrypted wallet and creates a payment transaction by digitally signing the payment instruction, and transmitting the payment transaction to a cryptocurrency network or exchange. Confirmation of the transaction requires either a PIN, biometric or fingerprint on the mobile device, or authentication via button press, PIN or fingerprint on the token.

  • Patent number: 8807727
    Abstract: Systems and methods of automatically bleeding air from a primary ink delivery system, so little or no air is mixed with the ink once it reaches a secondary ink system containing print heads. An air bleeder return assembly with a flow restrictor orifice that is configured to remove air from ink pumped to the carriage of print heads, thereby minimizing jet dropouts. Additionally, this setup provides the added advantage of the ability to run the bulk bags dry without ingesting large quantities of air to the ink delivery system.
