• and
• (2) first authorization instructions for the second designated key pair;
• (d) providing second smart contract instructions associated with a second smart contract associated with the digital asset token associated with the second smart contract address associated with the blockchain associated with the underlying digital asset,
• wherein the second smart contract instructions are saved as part of the blockchain for the underlying digital asset and include:
• (1) print limiter token creation instructions indicating conditions under which tokens of the digital asset token are created;
• (2) second authorization instructions to create tokens of the digital asset token,
• wherein the first designated key pair is designated to authorize said second authorization instructions to create tokens of the digital asset token;
• and
• (3) third authorization instructions with respect to token creation of the digital asset token;
• wherein the third authorization instructions designate a first designated custodian address with respect to token creation of the digital asset token;
• (e) providing third smart contract instructions associated with a first designated custodian smart contract associated with the digital asset token associated with a third contract address associated with the blockchain associated with the underlying digital asset,
• wherein the third contract address is the first designated custodian contract address, and
• wherein the third smart contract instructions are saved as part of the blockchain associated with the underlying digital asset and include:
• (1) fourth authorization instructions to authorize issuance of instructions to the second smart contract regarding token creation;
• wherein the fourth authorization instructions designate the second designated key pair to authorize the fourth authorization instructions;
• (f) providing fourth smart contract instructions associated with a fourth smart contract associated with the digital asset token associated with a fourth contract address associated with the blockchain associated with the underlying digital asset,
• wherein the fourth contract address is one of the one or more delegated contract addresses and not:
• (i) the first contract address, (ii) the second contract address, or (iii) the third contract address,
• wherein the fourth smart contract instructions are saved as part of the blockchain associated with the underlying digital assets and include:
• (1) token creation instructions to create tokens of the digital asset token in accordance with conditions set forth by the print limiter token creation instructions;
• and
• (2) second delegation instructions delegating data storage operations to at least a fifth contract address;
• (g) providing fifth smart contract instructions associated with a fifth smart contract associated with the digital asset token associated with the fifth contract address associated with the blockchain associated with the underlying digital asset,
• wherein the fifth smart contract address is one of the one or more designated store contract addresses, and
• wherein the fifth smart contract instructions are saved as part of the blockchain for the underlying digital assets and include:
• (1) data storage instructions for transaction data related to the digital asset token, wherein said transaction data comprises for all issued tokens of the digital asset token:
• (A) respective public address information associated with the blockchain associated with the underlying digital asset;
• and
• (B) corresponding respective token balance information associated with said respective public address information;
• and
• (2) fifth authorization instructions to modify the transaction data in response to requests from the fourth contract address;
• (h) receiving, by a digital asset token issuer system, a request to generate and assign to the first designated public address a first amount of digital asset tokens;
• (i) generating, by the digital asset token issuer system, the first amount of digital asset tokens and assigning said first amount of digital asset tokens to the first designated public address increasing the total supply of the digital asset tokens, comprising the step of:
• (1) generating, by the digital asset token issuer system, and sending, using the digital asset token issuer system via the blockchain network, a first transaction request:
• (A) to the fourth contract address;
• and
• (B) including a first message comprising a first request to generate the first amount of digital asset tokens and assign said first amount of digital asset tokens to the first designated public address;
• wherein the first transaction request is digitally signed by the first designated private key;
• wherein the fourth smart contract executes, via the plurality of geographically distributed computer systems in the peer-to-peer network with reference to the blockchain, the first transaction request to:
• (i) validate the first request and the authority of the first designated private key to call the second smart contract to execute the first request;
• and
• (ii) send a first call to the fourth contract address to generate and assign to the first designated public address the first amount of digital asset tokens;
• wherein the fourth smart contract executes, via the plurality of geographically distributed computer systems in the peer-to-peer network with reference to the blockchain, the first call to generate a first unique lock identifier, and return to the second smart contract address, the first unique lock identifier;
• wherein, in response to the return of the first unique lock identifier, the second smart contract executes, via the plurality of geographically distributed computer systems in the peer-to-peer network with reference to the blockchain, a call to the fourth smart contract address to confirm the first call with the first lock identifier;
• wherein, in response, the fourth smart contract executes, via the plurality of geographically distributed computer systems in the peer-to-peer network with reference to the blockchain, the first call to execute a second call to the fifth contract address to obtain the total supply of digital asset tokens in circulation;
• wherein, in response, the fifth smart contract executes, via the plurality of geographically distributed computer systems in the peer-to-peer network with reference to the blockchain, the second call and returns, to the fourth contract address, a second amount of digital asset tokens corresponding to the total supply of digital asset tokens in circulation;
• wherein, in response to the return of the second amount, the fourth smart contract, executes via the plurality of geographically distributed computer systems in the peer-to-peer network with reference to the blockchain, a third call request to the fifth contract address to set a new total supply of digital asset tokens in circulation to a third amount, which is the total of the first amount and the second amount;
• wherein, in response to the third call, the fifth smart contract, executes via the plurality of geographically distributed computer systems in the peer-to-peer network with reference to the blockchain, the third call and sets a new total supply of digital asset tokens in circulation at the third amount;
• wherein, the fourth smart contract executes, via the plurality of geographically distributed computer systems in the peer-to-peer network with reference to the blockchain, a fourth call to the fifth contract address to add the first amount of digital asset tokens to a respective balance associated with the first designated public address;
• wherein, in response, the fifth smart contract executes, via the plurality of geographically distributed computer systems in the peer-to-peer network with reference to the blockchain, the fourth call to set the balance of digital asset tokens in the first designated public address at a fourth amount which includes the addition of the first amount to the previous balance;
• and
• (j) confirming, by the digital asset token issuer system, that the balance of digital asset tokens associated with the first designated public address is set to include the first amount of digital asset tokens based on reference to the blockchain.
