Abstract: A system and a method for creating a holistic, flexible, scalable, confidential, low-latency, high-volume, immutable distributed ledger for the financial services and other industries. The system allows a scalable blockchain solution with respect to accessible memory requirements of distributed ledgers or distributed databases with confidentiality in the shared records as well as accommodating low-latency, high-capacity transaction capabilities. The method includes a fundamental, generic, logical representation of financial services life-cycles transactions in terms of variable sets of four simple, sequential components. The optimal process generates a self-validating, variable n-dimensional, multi-hash-linked, interdependent distributed ledger that allows the individual network participants to recreate the ledger without having to refer to or confirm with other network participants.

Abstract: A game and method including providing a game board having a plurality of nodes, a source node for each player and a plurality of playing pieces. Each piece has multiple states and represents each state. The game is played by starting the playing pieces via a single starting position, and moving the pieces by each player, in turn, by having one of the player's pieces act on another of the player's own pieces, a piece of another player, or an empty node according to its predetermined movement abilities and then removing the acting piece. The player backfills the empty node with another piece linked to the emptied node, and continuing to the player's source node. Finally a new piece is placed on the source node in any chosen state. Play continues until one player removes a piece from another player's source node.
