  • Publication number: 20230169594
    Abstract: Systems and methods for a financial management system are described. The present disclosure describes systems and methods for finance management and financial investing. Embodiments of the disclosure include executing financial transactions between an employer and employee using a fiat currency and a cryptocurrency. In some cases, the financial management system purchases cryptocurrency with a portion of the employee salary and settles a contract based on a distributed ledger. Further, the financial management system transfers the difference between the settling amount and the fiat currency to the employee. The financial management systems and techniques described in the present disclosure may generally drive (e.g., incentivize, facilitate, enable, etc.) fiat currency toward cryptocurrency (e.g., as fiat currency is otherwise vulnerable without association with, or transfer to, a hard asset).
