  • Patent number: 10931457
    Abstract: A method of generating a digital lottery ticket includes receiving a transaction record associated with a ticket issuance request from a computing device, wherein the transaction record includes transaction data including a player entry and a first public key associated with the player entry, generating a first message including digital ticket information, TKD, relating to the player entry, a source field and a destination field, generating a digital signature of the first message using a private key of an issuer server, transmitting the first message and the digital signature to a transaction certification authority (TCA) server for storage on a publicly viewable transaction ledger maintained by the TCA, receiving from the TCA server a second message including a digital ticket number and a transaction ID associated with the first message and the digital ticket number, and transmitting a third message including the transaction ID and the digital ticket number to the computing device.
