Abstract: Non-limiting examples of the present disclosure relate to creation and management of a transactional ledger through an electronic gaming application/service. Various embodiments relate generally to gaming systems based on a distributed multi-ledger gaming architecture. In accordance with various embodiments, a transparent technology platform can be used to provide a secure ledger system for recording value transfer, play action, bets, analytics, gaming statistics (e.g., payouts, skill levels, etc.), and the like. In some examples, gaming systems can directly interact with the distributed multi-ledger architecture for secure and transparent transactions which can also be accessed by auditors, tax authorities, partners, and/or other entities. Some examples may use private and/or public blockchains as part of the distributed multi-ledger gaming architecture. For instance, multiple distributed network nodes may be utilized to manage creation of game-related transaction records.

Abstract: Technology is disclosed herein for expediting blockchain transactions. More specifically, the technology describes techniques for assessing risk associated with expediting processing of blockchain transactions received by a transaction processing platform. When a determination is made that a transaction can be expedited, the transaction processing platform can expedite the transaction, e.g., locally process the blockchain transaction, prior to receiving a verification or confirmation from the consensus network. In this manner, the transaction processing platform can act like a local cache allowing quick access and operation on permanently stored data within the blockchain with minimal or calculated risk.

Abstract: Networked gaming systems and methods with location-based restrictions. A gaming system includes a game administration server, a communication interface, and a memory containing program instructions to cause at least one processor of the game administration server to estimate a current location of a player using the gaming system, dynamically create a customized list of available games for a player at the current location based on a location of a player gaming client being used by the player, present the customized list of available games to the player gaming client through the communications interface, receive, from the player gaming client through the communications interface, a selection of a game by the player from the customized list of available games, initiate the game on a gaming server, and compensate the player with player winnings.

Abstract: A blockchain of block entries that can be requested by users from user devices is maintained in a distributed network of nodes. Block entries include a plurality of data portions that are each associated with an access level. A request from an auditor to view one or more data portions of a block entry can includes an access code associated with at least one access level can be evaluated to identify one or more data portions associated with the access level. A customized view of the block entry which includes the one or more data portions associated with the access level can be generated. An artificial intelligence engine can review entries within the distributed ledger, identify earnings information associated with the sales of the commercial inventory, determine tax based on earning information, and pay the tax via fiat or cryptocurrency to government authorities based on earnings information.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and software are disclosed herein to execute functionalities of a blockchain operating system. A transactional request for an operating system instruction is received from a user device in a distributed network of nodes. The transactional request is authenticated in the distributed network of nodes based on data associated with the transactional request. A blockchain is then evaluated for one or more scripts associated with the transactional request. In response, the operating system instruction is generated based on the one or more scripts. The operating system instruction is then transferred to the user device in the distributed network or nodes.

Abstract: Non-limiting examples of the present disclosure relate to generation and implementation of a new security protocol that is used to secure common data access transactions across distributed network examples. An exemplary proof of verification protocol is disclosed that implements consensus security mechanisms across a plurality of distributed nodes, which may be utilized to validate owners of data in common data access transactions. Extending principles of blockchain security to common data access transactions and Internet of Things (IoT) networking requires a solution that: improves speed in transactional processing; reduces computational complexity; and presents efficient, secure and repeatable validation for owners of data in distributed networking environments. An exemplary proof of verification protocol provides such technical advantages by validating both user-specific data for a subscriber of an application/service and session data for user activity (past and present) within the application/service.

Abstract: Computerized electronic gaming techniques may include accessing a gaming application and receiving data representative of a location of a system operable by a player of an electronic game. A graphical user interface (GUI) for play of the electronic game may be displayed on an electronic display device of, or associated with, the system in response to the gaming application being accessed. Data representative of game play actions by the player in the electronic game may be relayed to the gaming application via the GUI. A computerized policy based at least in part on the location of the system may be implemented to prevent cheating or unauthorized collusion by the player in the electronic game. The computerized policy may direct one or more game control actions responsive to a presence or absence of cheating or unauthorized collusion by the player being detected in the electronic game.
