  • Patent number: 12248936
    Abstract: Methods and systems described herein may implement blockchain cryptocurrency transactions in a variety of environments. An online transaction processor may provide operations for user activity detection for locking cryptocurrency conversions. The transaction processor may detect used activities for a user online or at a physical location and determine that those activities indicate that the user will engage in electronic transaction processing at an upcoming time. The transaction processor may determine that the user has available cryptocurrency and may want to convert at least a portion of the cryptocurrency to another currency for the electronic transaction processing. Using a cryptocurrency exchange, the transaction processor may determine a price to convert the cryptocurrency to the other currency and may lock that price for a time period for the user. A notification may be transmitted to the user with a user interface element to accept this offer.
