    Abstract: A digital asset delivery network that consists of a cryptographic scheme and a decentralized network that runs on a blockchain. The decentralized network consists of a computer program that interact with the network by issuing electronic messages, computer programs that validate those messages as entries into blockchain and agree on blocks to publish next, and computer programs that run cryptographic multi-party computation protocols. The multi-party computation protocol generates public keys necessary to create cryptocurrency or crypto asset wallets, and also generates the digital signatures necessary to create a transaction for submission to the crypto asset's underlying decentralized network and blockchain.
