Patent number: 11943350Abstract: In certain embodiments, the use of re-usable cold storage keys to sign messages may be facilitated. In some embodiments, an offline computer system (operating within an offline computing environment) may obtain, from a removable computer-readable storage medium, signing key shards corresponding to a signing private key and a blockchain transaction to be signed, where the signing key shards satisfy a key shard threshold that is (i) a number of key shards required for reconstructing the signing private key and (ii) less than a number of key shards derived from the signing private key using a ceremony key. The offline computer system may form a ciphertext of the signing private key using the signing key shards and reconstruct the signing private key by decrypting the ciphertext using the ceremony key. The offline computer system may sign the blockchain transaction using the signing private key.Type: GrantFiled: October 16, 2020Date of Patent: March 26, 2024Assignee: Coinbase, Inc.Inventors: Yolanda Liu, Ryan Sears, Alan Leung, Zachary Blacher, Jeremy Suurkivi

Patent number: 10701057Abstract: An assembly management system allows a software service provider (SSP) to compile and upload client-specific client application code into a repository. The SSP deploys a client application comprising non-client-specific code to various clients. When a user logs in, a call is made to a web service, which queries the repository for code specific to the requesting client. If available, the web service sends a response with the name and version of the assembly to which the client is subscribed. If the locally-saved version does not match the version of the assembly in the repository, and if the SSP has permission to write to the client's disk, the web service retrieves the assembly and commits it to the disk. If the SSP does not have permission, the assembly is streamed to the client device and retained and executed in memory for the duration of the login.Type: GrantFiled: March 18, 2019Date of Patent: June 30, 2020Assignee: EXPERIAN HEALTH, INCInventors: Michael Peter Ochs, Edmond Chase Pilkington, Thomas Ryan Sears, David Stephen Phoebus
