| 1st Invent: | Sergii Bomko (Kyiv, ) |
| Inventors: | Genders: F=1, M=2 |
| Abstract: 2000 char max | According to a present invention embodiment, a system for acquiring a digital asset on a blockchain comprises one or more memories and at least one processor coupled to the one or more memories. The system receives transaction information for a transaction to acquire the digital asset on the blockchain. The transaction information including a value for acquiring the digital asset is verified based on authentication information. Off-chain processing determines a dynamically changing value for acquiring the digital asset and produces the authentication information based on the dynamically changing value. The transaction is performed on the blockchain to acquire the digital asset in response to verification of the transaction information. Embodiments of the present invention further include a method and computer program product for acquiring a digital asset on a blockchain in substantially the same manner described above. |

| Inventors: | Genders: F=1, M=1 |
| Abstract: 2000 char max | The invention relates to distributed ledger technologies such as consensus-based blockchains, for example, a Bitcoin blockchain. Computer-implemented methods for a trustless, deterministic state machine that is embodied by the locking script of a spending transaction are described. The spending transaction transfers control of at least one digital asset or portion thereof. The spending transaction references a previous transaction that includes a locking script with a bytecode sequence. The spending transaction also includes a locking script with the same bytecode sequence. The spending transaction can be validated by verifying that the bytecode sequences of the locking scripts of the spending and previous transactions match one another. Control of the at least one digital asset or portion thereof can be transferred as a result of execution of the locking script. For example, the locking script can impose a set of conditions for validation of the spending transaction. |

| 1st Invent: | Craig Steven Wright (London, ) |
| Inventors: | Genders: F=0, M=2 |
| Abstract: 2000 char max | A solution for controlling access to a resource such as a digital wallet implemented using a blockchain. Use of the invention during set-up of the wallet can enable subsequent operations to be handled in a secure manner over an insecure channel. An example method comprises splitting a verification element into multiple shares; determining a common secret at multiple nodes in a network; and using the common secret to transmit a share of the verification element between nodes. The shares can be split such that no share is sufficient to determine the verification element and can be stored at separate locations. Upon share unavailability, the share can be retrieved a location accessibility. For safe transmission of the share(s), the common secret is generated at two different nodes independently and used to generate an encryption key for encrypting at least one share of the verification element to be transmitted securely. |

| 1st Invent: | Patrick Motylinski (London, ) |
| Inventors: | Genders: F=1, M=4 |
| Abstract: 2000 char max | A computer-implemented method to validate a block at a node within a network of nodes implementing a blockchain conforming to a blockchain protocol. This may be the Bitcoin protocol or an alternative. The method includes determining, serially, that each unspent transaction output referenced as an input in each of the plurality of transactions is unique and, based on that determination allocating each transaction in the plurality of transactions to one of two or more parallel processors, and verifying, in parallel, by the two or more parallel processors, that the transactions in the plurality of transactions comply with transaction-level validation criteria. The node also determines that the block meets block-level validation criteria. If the transactions comply with transaction-level validation criteria and the block complies with block-level validation criteria, the block is deemed valid and the node forwards the block to one or more peer nodes in the network. |

| 1st Invent: | Danyang Li (Shenzhen, ) |
| Inventors: | Genders: F=1, M=0 |
| Abstract: 2000 char max | A block generation method and apparatus for blockchain networks. The method includes that when a first blockchain node is a leader, the first blockchain node packs a leader-elected transaction in a transaction pool into a first block, where the leader-elected transaction records a leader proof of the first blockchain node. The leader proof records a voting state in which each of the plurality of second blockchain nodes votes on the first blockchain node, and the voting state indicates whether a vote is a positive vote or a negative vote. The first blockchain node sends the first block to the plurality of second blockchain nodes, so that the first blockchain node and/or the second blockchain nodes perform fork processing based on the leader proof. |

| Abstract: 2000 char max | An architecture is disclosed for submission and recordation of application programmer interfaces (APIs) using non-fungible tokens (NFTs) inserted into a blockchain. The API-NFT pairings are validated by nodes of the network. The system automatically searches for and generate NFTs for APIs and/or intermediate layers on a computer network based on metadata associated with the API and a hash of the API/intermediate layer. The API-NFT pair binding ensures that developers/consumers are ingesting APIs that are secure and do not include malicious rules. Furthermore, performance monitoring of the API is performed using artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML), including long short term memory (LSTM) neural networks. |
