Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to systems and methods for facilitating micropayments between distributed, independent consumers and content creators. A computer-implemented method is disclosed related to enabling tips between at least one content consumer and at least one content creator, comprising: receiving, at a web application from a user interface, an intent to tip; sending, via the web application, a payment initiation based on the intent to tip to a processing service; generating, at the processing service, a payment event based on the payment initiation, wherein the payment event comprises payment data; and updating, at the processing service, at least one wallet based on the payment data.

Abstract: A computer-implemented process, system, and computer readable medium are provided for administration and governance of fiat and cryptocurrency funds in a distributed computer system. In one example, a process includes, at an electronic device with one or more processors and memory, accessing a list of a plurality of participant nodes, which may include a fund administrator receiving a list of participants or nodes. The method further includes transferring crypto-currency (e.g., that is pegged to U.S. dollars, local currency, or the like) to one or more of the participant nodes. Each of the participant nodes may include an interface portal (e.g., a web-portal) for viewing transferred crypto-currency and for transacting (e.g., bidding, soliciting, etc.) with other participant nodes of the list of participant nodes with the crypto-currency.
