Abstract: A data provider tracking and monetization system is disclosed that can provide data aggregation infrastructure, tracking, and monetization. The present disclosure achieves the technological advantage of organizing data that is received from multiple data providers for a single person to provide any missing data. The data providers can be tracked via the provision of their data, such that they can be incentivized for providing the data. The present disclosure improves traditional systems by generating a data structure that includes metadata to identify data providers and data requestors to minimize network congestion, uncategorized data, and stale data that ravages traditional systems. Further by publishing the transactions on a distributed ledger, such as a blockchain, the request for data and all of the contributions thereto provide an open, verifiable, and immutable record of the transaction.
