Abstract:
2000 char max
The present specification discloses a blockchain computer application. This blockchain computer application includes a Graphical User Interface (GUI) that supports the organization and blockchaining of files to a blockchain. This GUI includes a virtual blockchain organizational tool onto which users can drag and drop files and organize them into various virtual blockchain blocks without permanently attaching those files to an actual blockchain until the virtual blockchain is converted to an actual blockchain. The conversion process preserves the organizational structure of the files set within the virtual blockchain. Files may also be automatically blockchained to a specific blockchain by dragging them and dropping them onto a blockchain application desktop icon. Files may also be automatically blockchained to specific blockchains by dragging them and dropping them onto a blockchain icon within the GUI where each blockchain icon is directly associated with a separate blockchain.

Abstract:
2000 char max
A system access a blockchain network and conducts a blockchain transaction on a task log in the blockchain network. The system stores the blockchain transaction in a blockchain ledger. The system determines whether the blockchain transaction is associated with an anomaly. The anomaly indicates that the result of the blockchain transaction is unexpected. If it is determined that the blockchain transaction is associated with an anomaly, the blockchain transaction is rejected and removed from the blockchain ledger. Otherwise, the blockchain ledger is updated to indicate that the blockchain transaction is not associated with an anomaly.

Alice provides this information plus her signature and optionally a change address. Bob can then perform local SPV checks on the input transactions Tx{b}1{/b}, Tx{b}2{/b} using transactions Tx{b}1{/b} and Tx{b}2{/b}, their corresponding Merkle paths Path {b}1{/b}, Path {b}2{/b}, and Bob''s local list of block headers. Bob broadcasts the transfer transaction (Tx{b}3{/b}) to the P2P network.

A method for providing oracle service of a blockchain network by using zero-knowledge proof includes steps of: (a) in response to feeder terminals registering data feeder transactions, including commitments generated with a commitment key and off-chain data, encrypted data generated by encrypting the off-chain data with a public key and data validation values proving with feeder zero-knowledge proof keys that the commitments are identical to the off-chain data, onto the blockchain network, the aggregator terminal acquiring at least one data feeder transaction therefrom; (b) the aggregator terminal verifying data validation values with its corresponding feeder zero-knowledge proof key, decrypting encrypted data with a private key, generating on-chain data from the decrypted data using a calculator and calculation validation values proving with an aggregator zero-knowledge proof key that the on-chain data is generated from the decrypted data, and registering the on-chain data and the calculation validation values onto the blockchain network.

Abstract:
2000 char max
Methods and systems are described herein for a transfer authorization system that may monitor for transfer requests for secondary cryptographic addresses maintained for one or more primary cryptographic addresses. When a transfer request is received, the transfer authorization system may determine that the transfer request is for a secondary cryptographic address. Based on that determination, the transfer authorization system may determine that the source cryptographic address of the request is authorized to receive control of cryptographic tokens from the secondary cryptographic address and that the request is associated with the source cryptographic address. The transfer authorization system may then transfer control of one or more cryptographic tokens from an associated primary cryptographic address to the secondary cryptographic address, and upon the successful transfer, may also transfer control of the one or more tokens to the requestor.

Abstract:
2000 char max
We disclose a blockchain e-voting system, where keeping the basic principles of voting does not require trusted-third parties. The system includes at least two vote nodes each having two sets of private and public keys, a voter management node, two smart contract modules, and a blockchain. A voter management node is configured to provide a cryptographic base for public key generation and to pre-register DIDs of vote nodes. A first smart contract module is configured to perform self-identification of vote nodes, encryption of votes, and generation of zero-knowledge proofs for the validity of their results, and to upload all the outputs to a blockchain. For the purpose, a vote node executes the first smart contract module, taking a voting decision, an asserted DID, the two sets of public and private keys as inputs, where one set of keys is for the self-identification, and another set is for the encryption. A second smart contract module is configured to download the votes from the blockchain, check the validity of proofs, tally up the results without decrypting them, and finally upload the results to blockchain.

Abstract:
2000 char max
Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for computer-implemented authentication platforms are described herein. In an example approach, a user is enrolled in a computer-implemented authentication platform. The enrollment process includes digitally encrypting an image of a user, storing the digitally encrypted image of the user in a blockchain as part of a user profile of the user, generating (using the digitally encrypted image of the user) an identifier of the user, and storing the identifier of the user in the blockchain as part of the user profile of the user. Subsequently, the user is authenticated. The authentication process includes retrieving the digitally encrypted image of the user from the blockchain (using the identifier of the user to retrieve the digitally encrypted image of the user) and decrypting the digitally encrypted image of the user using a decryption token.

Abstract:
2000 char max
A secure, integrated data system and method users both blockchain and Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) technologies to achieve information provenance for data, particularly, mobile health device data. Using a blockchain to record and enforce data access policies removes the need to trust a single entity with gatekeeping the health data. Instead, participants form a consortium and collectively partake in verifying and enforcing access policies for data stored in private data silos. Data access and computation takes place inside of TEEs, which preserves data confidentiality and provides a verifiable attestation that can be stored on the blockchain for the purpose of information provenance.

Abstract:
2000 char max
A novel structured random sample consensus protocol to greatly improve blockchain and distributed ledger technology throughput and scalability, while maintaining decentralization and high levels of security. The invention leverages small committees of fixed sizes, called ''Clans,'' threshold cryptography, and logical virtual districts, called ''Tribes,'' in order to deterministically random sample disparate nodes for sentiment analysis on a transactions validity, thereby only requiring a relatively small subset of nodes to validate any particular transaction or batch of transactions thus enabling much greater concurrency and parallel processing compared to other more linearized consensus algorithms, while maintaining high security.

Abstract:

A distributed ledger-based system, method and apparatus for managing tasks. An authorization record proposal is validated by a localized blockchain authorization network against a validated schema published by, in some cases, a core blockchain network. Once validated, it is published on a localized channel for use by other nodes to validate actions of the task as the task is being performed. Data relating to completed tasks may be shared in accordance with sharing information in the validated authorization record and the data may be deleted upon the occurrence of a predetermined condition.
