In one embodiment, a system for managing a virtual vehicle includes one or more processors, and a non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that cause the one or more processors to receive a vehicle identification number of a physical vehicle, and generate a non-fungible token for the physical vehicle on a blockchain. The non-fungible token provides a virtual vehicle corresponding to the physical vehicle. The virtual vehicle is renderable in a virtual environment. The instructions further cause the processors to monitor one or more vehicle registration systems for a change in a title of the physical vehicle using the vehicle identification number, and when a change in the title of the physical vehicle is determined, determine a new owner of the physical vehicle and record a new owner name of the new owner of the physical vehicle on the blockchain to transfer ownership of the virtual vehicle to the new owner.

Introduced here is a computational architecture (also referred to as a “computational infrastructure”) that addresses the limitations of traditional data management solutions using a highly secure data management solution coupled with consent-based sharing. At a high level, the computational architecture applies blockchain methodologies to both transaction data and business data such that both types of data are stored “on chain” in the same computational architecture. This enables several significant advantages over traditional data management solutions with respect to data security, data ownership, data sharing, and intelligence.

This invention pertains to the fields of distributed ledger, cryptocurrency, and decentralized physical infrastructure network. It solves the problems of the blockchain trilemma and cryptocurrency's lack of a real-world value that is recognizable to the mainstream population. Those two problems have prevented any cryptocurrency from gaining mass adoption. The Golf Ledger is distributed across a network of computers that are installed at up to 40,000 golf courses to leverage the existing decentralization of the world's golf courses and their ownership entry barrier and therefore does not need to sacrifice scalability for decentralization and security. The Golf Token as the native cryptocurrency of the Golf Ledger network is rewarded to golf courses for their contributing more and more computing resources to make the network more scalable. Their customers can use the Golf Token to pay golfing fees and get a discount, which is an obvious real-world value.

The problems of lack of security, lack of privacy, and high costs associated with previous blockchains, cryptocurrencies, and non-fungible tokens (NFTs) is addressed by systems and methods for managing unique digital assets (UDAs) in a secure, private, and low-cost manner. The systems and methods create a seamless connection between physical items and UDAs. The systems and methods embed client-side validated smart contracts associated with UDAs into physical items. Tying ownership of the UDAs to a physical item increases security by reducing opportunities for theft and other hacking attacks. Validating smart contracts on the client side (i.e., off-chain) reduces the computational demand on the blockchain, decreasing transaction costs, fees, and carbon emissions and also keeps the contents of the smart contract private. The systems and methods further send or receive information associated with the smart contract to or from the blockchain, leveraging the transparency, security, and traceability afforded by blockchain technology.

Mechanisms for efficiently transferring multiple unspent transaction output (UTXO) tokens in a blockchain network operating a UTXO-based token transaction model are disclosed herein. These methods allow for the use of less computer processing and network bandwidth resources in the transfer of blockchain items, particularly in blockchain schemes with lineage tracking mechanisms (e.g. as may allow for clawback of tokens). Some embodiments comprise generating a delegated account and transferring the UTXO tokens into the delegated account. The ownership of the delegated account can then be transferred to another use of the blockchain network in a single transaction, thereby avoiding the need to individually transfer the UTXO tokens and incur the memory and computational resource burden and costs associated with therewith.

A computer implemented method of using a blockchain to coordinate data transfer over a P2P network. A second hash value is obtained, the second hash value generated by hashing a data request associated with a data item with first and second hash functions. The second hash value and the requesting node's public key are sent to the P2P nodes connected to the requesting node, wherein a chain is formed between the requesting and target nodes. The target node splits the data into packets, uses the requesting node's public key to encrypt each of the packets together with the first hash value to generate first encrypted messages, and generates final encrypted messages by encrypting the first encrypted messages with the public keys of nodes in the chain. The encrypted messages are obtained and decrypted to construct the data item, and submitting attestation transactions to the blockchain.
