Publication number: 20230237571Abstract: Computing devices, methods, systems, and computer-readable media for analyzing requests to perform cold restores of cryptocurrencies are described herein. A computing device may receive a request for a cold restore of one or more cryptocurrencies stored by a digital wallet. The one or more cryptocurrencies may be identified, and data may be received from a database. The computing device may determine, based on the data, a risk score associated with the transfer of the one or more cryptocurrencies from a cold state to a hot state. The risk score may be generated using a machine learning model, such as a machine learning model that may be trained to output a risk score associated with a cold restore based on recent transaction activity. The computing device may output, based on comparing the risk score to a threshold, an indication of whether the request should be granted.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 24, 2022Publication date: July 27, 2023Inventors: Don Yu, Zassmin Montes De Oca, Shamiq Islam, Eddie Gonzales, Tk Ng, Matthew Muller, Cassandra Rice, Paul Hodapp
