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: Systems and methods for hosting one or more electronic games are described. A method in a system for hosting one or more electronic games includes receiving a selection by a player of an electronic game. The method includes enabling the electronic game to be played using a computing device operable by the player. The method also includes determining a game result based on game play by the player in the selected electronic game. The method further includes causing value to be awarded to the player in accordance with the game result. Various useful and technically advantageous features enabling play-to-earn electronic gaming where valuable payouts may be made in various non-monetary means.

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: An electronic gaming system includes a game administrative server and communications interface(s). The server includes processor(s) and memory containing instructions to cause the processor(s) to: receive, from a gaming client associated with a player, data representative of historical gameplay activity of the player; identify, based at least in part on the historical gameplay activity, a co-play pattern indicating that the player has participated in multiple games with at least one other player over a threshold frequency; determine a risk parameter associated with the co-play pattern; generate a customized list of electronic games available to the player based at least in part on the risk parameter, wherein the customized list excludes at least one electronic game responsive to the risk parameter exceeding a threshold value; and transmit the customized list to the gaming client for presentation to the player via a graphical user interface.

Abstract: A blockchain of block entries provided to and requested by a plurality of users from endpoints, including user devices, in a distributed network is maintained in a distributed network of nodes. The block entries each comprise a plurality of data portions that are each associated with an access level. A request to view one or more data portions of a block entry is received which includes an access code associated with at least one access level. The access code in the request is evaluated with the blockchain of block entries to identify one or more data portions associated with the access level. A customized view of the block entry is generated which includes the one or more data portions associated with the access level. Enhanced operational efficiency and customer convenience is thereby provided in industries including for the tracking, management, and fulfillment of parking services at a parking facility.

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: An electronic gaming system includes an administration server and communications interface(s). The server includes processor(s) and memory containing instructions to cause the processor(s) to: determine a current location of the gaming client; generate a list of electronic game(s) available for play on a gaming client; cause a graphical user interface including the list to be displayed on the gaming client; receive a selection by a player of a game from the list; initiate the game on the gaming client based on the selection; determine an updated location of the gaming client; and either enable continued play of the game on the gaming client for the updated location being in a jurisdiction legally permitting play of the electronic game, or disable play of the game on the gaming client for the updated location being in a jurisdiction in which play of the electronic game is illegal.
