  • Publication number: 20190325512
    Abstract: In an example embodiment described herein, there is disclosed a method for using a distributed ledger (e.g., a blockchain) for tracking debt information. For example, debt data is created by a first financial institution responsive to a loan. The debt data is stored in a distributed ledger by the first financial institution with a first key that is associated with the first financial institution. Payment data is also stored in the distributed ledger encrypted by the first key. Upon transfer of the debt to a second financial institution, subsequent debt data is stored in the distributed ledger encrypted by a second key associated with the second financial institution.

  • Patent number: 8413889
    Abstract: A system includes a plurality of machines that operate responsive to data bearing records such as user cards (74, 76, 78, 80, 82, 84, 86). The machines operate to carry out financial transactions with associated host computers (90, 94, 100, 104) responsive to determinations that card data corresponds to computer stored data corresponding to authorized users or accounts. Marketing presentations are stored on and output from the machines responsive to messages exchanged with a market message server (110) which is connected to the machines. Systems can also distribute and activate instructions corresponding to states and screens logic on the machines to determine operation.
