Interactive token of things

A non-transitory computer-readable medium having instructions stored thereon that are executable by a computer system to perform operations of a first application comprising:

• in response to an indication from a first entity, sending, to a processing system, a request to authenticate an information exchange;
• after receiving an indication that the request to authenticate was declined, identifying one or more connected applications, wherein a given connected application has been connected, by the first entity, to a respective computer service;
• locating one or more different cryptographic tokens associated with respective ones of the connected applications, wherein the different cryptographic tokens are usable by the respective connected applications to authenticate the first entity to computer services associated with the respective connected applications, and wherein the respective connected applications are different from the first application and are not associated with the information exchange;
• sending, to the processing system, a subset of the one or more different cryptographic tokens;
• and
• after a particular cryptographic token of the subset of different cryptographic tokens has been selected, caching remaining ones of the subset for consideration for use with a subsequent request.

A system comprising:

• a mobile device configured to, in response to an indication from a first entity via a first application executing on the mobile device, send a request to perform an information exchange;
• a processing system configured to:
• in response to receiving the request from the mobile device, generate a first token request to issue a cryptographic token, wherein the requested cryptographic token is to be authorized;
• in response to determining that authorization of the requested cryptographic token failed, send an indication of the failed authorization to the mobile device;
• wherein the mobile device is further configured to:
• identify one or more different cryptographic tokens associated with respective connected applications that are different from the first application and are associated with the first entity, wherein ones of the different cryptographic tokens are usable by the respective connected applications to authenticate the first entity to respective computer services but are not usable for completing the requested information exchange;
• and
• send a subset of the different cryptographic tokens to the processing system;
• wherein the processing system is further configured to:
• select a particular cryptographic token from the subset of the different cryptographic tokens;
• generate a second token request to issue a substitute cryptographic token using information from the particular cryptographic token;
• and
• use the substitute cryptographic token to complete the requested information exchange.
