Abstract: Systems and methods for issuance and management of non-fungible tokens are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method for issuing non-fungible tokens may include: (1) receiving, by a computer program executed by a non-fungible token as a service (NFTaaS) computer program and from a NFTaaS user interface, a minting request to mint a non-fungible token (NFT), wherein the minting request comprises content for the NFT and a plurality of NFT attributes; (2) identifying, by the NFTaaS computer program, a deployed smart contract for the plurality of NFT attributes; (3) minting, by the NFTaaS computer program, the NFT according to the NFT attributes using the identified deployed smart contract; and (4) deploying, by the NFTaaS computer program, the NFT to a distributed ledger.

Abstract: A gateway interfacing with multiple distributed ledger networks may receive, from a buyer on a first distributed ledger network, a request to purchase an asset in exchange for a cash token, the asset being sold by a seller on a second distributed ledger network and an entry on the second distributed ledger network, and the cash token is an entry on the first distributed ledger network; communicate the request to the seller; receive acceptance of the request from the seller; transfer the asset to an electronic wallet for the buyer by updating ownership of the asset on the second distributed ledger network and on the first distributed ledger network; and transfer the cash token to an electronic wallet for the seller by updating ownership of the cash token on the second distributed ledger network and on the first distributed ledger network.

Abstract: Systems and methods for tokenization, management, trading, settlement, and retirement of renewable energy attributes are disclosed. In one embodiment, in an information processing apparatus comprising at least one computer processor, a method for tokenization, management, trading, settlement, and retirement of renewable energy attributes may include: (1) identifying renewable energy generation data associated with a seller to tokenize; (2) generating at least one renewable energy token for the identified renewable energy generation data; (3) writing the renewable energy token to a first distributed ledger; (4) adding the renewable energy token to a digital wallet for the seller; (5) exchanging the renewable energy token for a cash token owned by a buyer by associating the renewable energy token with the buyer and associating the cash token with the seller on the first distributed ledger; and (6) retiring the renewable energy token.

Abstract: Apparatus for managing a tab relating to purchases, the apparatus including a sales terminal, a client device and an account server in communication via one or more communications networks. The account server provides an open tab message to the sales terminal, which opens a tab for the user and provides a tab identifier message to the account server. The account server provides an indication of the tab identifier to the client device allowing a user of the client device to present the tab identifier when making a purchase so that the purchase can be added to the tab. The sales terminal provides a tab balance message to the account server, which processes payment of the tab on behalf of the user in accordance with the tab balance and provides payment confirmation to the sales terminal.

Abstract: A stuffed toy and a system for creating customized stuffed toys are presented. A system for creating customized stuffed toys includes a first area in which a toy skin is selected, a second area in which an attribute is selected for the toy skin, a third area in which the toy skin is filled with stuffing to produce a stuffed toy, a fourth area in which the stuffed toy is outfitted with apparel and accessories, and a fifth area in which the stuffed toy is registered and weighed. The system may also be implemented using a computer to create a virtual stuffed toy.
