  • Publication number: 20230254346
    Abstract: A server computing device configured to receive, via an anonymization network and from a first mobile computing device that determines a location from a set of locations of the first mobile computing device is within a threshold distance of an event, a proximity indication that a first user associated with the first mobile computing device is proximate to the event; in response to receiving an indication of a remittance for the event from a second user, generate an association between the remittance and the event; in response to receiving descriptive data that is descriptive of the event, send the descriptive data to a second mobile computing device of the second user; and in response to receiving an indication to release the remittance, send a message that executes a transaction that transfers at least a portion of the amount of the remittance to an account associated with the first user.

  • Publication number: 20190075138
    Abstract: A system comprising: mobile computing devices; an anonymization network; a server computing device coupled to each mobile computing device, and wherein each mobile computing device sends, using the anonymization network, a set of locations to the server computing device; wherein the server computing device: based at least in part on determining that a location is within a threshold distance of a location of a crime, generates a proximity indication; in response to receiving an indication of a remittance for the crime from at least one other user, stores an association between the remittance and the crime; in response to receiving descriptive data for the crime, sends the descriptive data to one other mobile computing device; performs an operation that provides the remittance to the user in response to receiving an indication from a mobile computing device that outputs a user interface with the descriptive data associated with the proximity indication.
