Location-based digital token management systems, methods, and apparatus

A computer-based digital content delivery management system comprising:

• at least one container database storing virtual object container rule sets indexed by at least location-based attributes;
• at least one virtual object database storing first virtual object information;
• and
• at least one content server coupled with the at least one container database, the content server enabled to perform at least the following operations upon execution of software instruction stored in a computer readable memory:
• obtaining a device location of a user device;
• identifying a set of virtual object container rule sets from the at least one container database, wherein rule sets in the set of virtual object container rule sets have a location-based attribute satisfying at least one location-dependent criterion that operates based on the device location;
• obtaining content selection criteria based on a context of the user device;
• identifying second virtual object information from the at least one virtual object database, wherein the second virtual object information satisfies the content selection criteria;
• causing the user device to instantiate an augmented reality (AR) virtual object container on or for the user device according to at least one rule set in the identified set of virtual object container rule sets;
• causing the user device to instantiate a collection of virtual objects within the instantiated AR virtual object container according to the second virtual object information and to the at least one rule set in the identified set of virtual object container rule sets, the instantiation of the collection of virtual objects occurs at least in part according to a random function;
• and
• enabling, according to the at least one rule set in the identified set of virtual object container rule sets, the user device to initiate a notarized ledger transaction associated with at least one virtual object in the collection of virtual objects while the at least one location-dependent criterion remain satisfied.
