Abstract: The following provides a method of modifying or deleting existing parts of an API while preventing breaking changes is taught herein. The method comprises assigning unique identifiers (ID) to the data. The unique identifier is a data address comprised of data coordinates and a context. The data coordinates further comprises a network ID, and a dataset ID. With this information, it is possible to identify and recall any data located within a network of data. The context further comprises a time ID and a timeline ID. Any data can be provided with a unique identifier such that the data can be recalled at any moment in time. This allows a user or programmer to make modifications or deletions to an API, interface, or a database without inducing a breaking change. This method allows for transient virtual addressing of data.

Abstract: Methods for verifying a transaction and coordinating verification of a transaction are provided. A method for verifying a transaction involves obtaining transaction data indicating execution of a transaction. The transaction data includes payment parameters of the transaction. The method involves obtaining corroborating data relevant to a determination of whether the transaction is determined to be authentic or inauthentic, displaying the payment parameters and indications of the corroborating data through a user interface of a computing device, and receiving a selection through the user interface to indicate that the transaction is determined to be authentic or inauthentic. A method for coordinating verification of a transaction involves obtaining transaction data, transmitting the transaction data to a user device, and receiving a selection from the user device to indicate whether the transaction is determined to be authentic or inauthentic.
