| Inventors: | Genders: F=0, M=2 |
| Abstract: 2000 char max | A system provides document storage and sharing on behalf of nodes of a blockchain system. The system includes one or more databases and one or more servers. The one or more servers receive file content of a document from a first node of the blockchain system and stores the file content in the one or more databases. A file hash of the document is generated by applying a hash function to the file content. The file hash is sent to the first node, such as for sharing with one or more other authorized nodes. The one or more servers receives a request for the document from a second node of the blockchain system, the request including the file hash. In response, the one or more servers send the file content of the document to the second node. |

| Inventors: | Genders: F=5, M=2 |
| Abstract: 2000 char max | Techniques for authenticating a digital asset represented by an NFT that is stored in a blockchain are disclosed. An NFT that has been minted for an asset is identified. The NFT was minted by generating metadata for the asset and by generating an original hash of the asset. The NFT is stored in a blockchain, and the metadata is stored in a centralized repository. The original hash is stored in either the repository or the blockchain. A potential transfer of the NFT is triggered. Triggering the potential transfer includes downloading, from the centralized repository, a local version of the asset. A local hash of the local version of the asset is generated. The local hash is compared against the original hash. If the two hashes are the same, then the transfer is permitted; otherwise, the transfer is not permitted. |

| Inventors: | Genders: F=2, M=4 |
| Abstract: 2000 char max | Methods and systems for parsing and identifying unindexed parameters and other information (e.g., a token contract address) that may appear encoded in event data. Specifically, the system may retrieve bytecode for an identified blockchain operation (e.g., a transaction). The system may then segregate the bytecode into constructor arguments, code sections, and/or metadata. The system may then parse the segregated portions of bytecode for bytecode representations that are based on function signatures, event signatures, token standards, and/or contract addresses. In some embodiments, the system may further narrow the pool of known bytecode representations that are compared against the remaining sections of bytecode based on bytecode representations corresponding to a particular type of blockchain network standard. |

| Abstract: 2000 char max | Systems, methods, and computer products for associating a top level network identifier with a blockchain address on a blockchain enable operations that may include: obtaining, from a root network segment file, an identification of a server that stores network infrastructure records associating network identifiers under the top level network identifier with network addresses and a signature on the identification of the server; obtaining, based on a first network infrastructure record, an association of the top level network identifier with the blockchain address; obtaining information sufficient to validate a trust chain, wherein the trust chain extends from a trusted authority to the association; and sending the association and the information sufficient to validate the trust chain to an executable program on the blockchain. The trust chain may be validatable by the executable program, and the association may be storable on the blockchain by the executable program. |

| Abstract: 2000 char max | Authentication of electronic document is based on multiple digital signatures incorporated into a blockchain. Structured data, metadata, and instructions may be hashed to generate the multiple digital signatures for distribution via the blockchain. Any peer receiving the blockchain may then verify an authenticity of an electronic document based on any one or more of the multiple digital signatures incorporated into the blockchain. |

| 1st Invent: | Brian Graves (Kenmore, WA) |
| Inventors: | Genders: F=0, M=1 |
| Abstract: 2000 char max | The system receives a call at a unique telephone number associated with a wireless telecommunication network and establishes a communication channel with a UE of a user. The system requests and receives a voice sample from the user and a PIN associated with the user. Using the voice sample and the PIN, the system performs a multi-factor authentication. Upon authenticating the user using the voice sample and the PIN, the system authorizes the user to make the modification to a blockchain. Upon failing to authenticate the user using the voice sample and the PIN, the system refuses to authorize the user to make the modification to the blockchain. |

| 1st Invent: | Driss El Majdoubi (Rabat, ) |
| Inventors: | Genders: F=0, M=1 |
| Abstract: 2000 char max | A system is provided to leverage blockchain for a Multi-Signed Certificate-To-Identity (MSC-To-IT) system using a distributed approach to allow end users to have greater control over their digital identities and cryptographic keys. The system can manage cryptographic keys in a distributed network. The system can include a plurality of nodes configured to participate in a blockchain network. The system can include a key generation module, operable on at least one of the nodes, to distribute generation of cryptographic keys using a threshold scheme, where the cryptographic keys can include a public key and a private key share for each participating node. |

| Inventors: | Genders: F=0, M=1 |
| Abstract: 2000 char max | Methods and systems related to non-fungible token (NFT) verification are disclosed herein. The systems and methods allow verifiers to conduct an ownership verification process in a frictionless and efficient manner without the need to understand and implement complex cryptographic algorithms and blockchain technologies. A disclosed system for verifying an NFT is a blockchain shell which accepts an NFT owner identifier from a verifier, verifies an NFT, and returns ownership verification data to a verifier device. Numerous approaches for registering NFT ownership with the blockchain shell, generating, transferring, and accepting the NFT owner identifier, and verifying NFT ownership using the NFT owner identifier are disclosed herein. |
