  • Publication number: 20230276109
    Abstract: Curating non-fungible token collections to be presented to audience members of an audiovisual program content may include communicating synchronization data derived from an audiovisual content such that subsequent alignment of the synchronization data to the audiovisual content activates non-fungible tokens correlated to the audiovisual content during playout of respective time periods of the audiovisual content. Curating non-fungible token collections to be presented to audience members of an audiovisual program content may also include minting a portion of the audiovisual content into a newly minted non-fungible token incorporating previously existing non-fungible tokens correlated to the portion of the audiovisual content.

  • Patent number: 10515410
    Abstract: A Standard Initial Margin Model (SIMM) is calculated and provided as an overall initial margin for non-cleared derivatives. In certain embodiments, using at least one computing device, information associated with a plurality of risk classes is acquired, and a delta margin, a vega margin, and a curvature margin for each risk class based on the acquired information associated is determined. The at least one computing device calculates initial margin for each risk class by summing the respective delta margin, the respective vega margin, and the respective curvature margin. The at least one computing device determines whether product classes will be used in calculating the overall initial margin, calculates the overall initial margin using an equation based on the determination, and provides the overall initial margin. The amount of the initial margin call for the underlying derivatives contract may then be generated based on the calculated initial margin.
