Abstract
An example operation may include one or more of connecting, by an asset server, to a source blockchain configured to store a digital asset of an asset owner, enciphering and locking, by the asset server, the asset in the source blockchain, manifesting, by the asset server, the asset as a linked asset in a target blockchain, tracking, by the asset server, a life cycle of the asset, detecting, by the asset server, an end of the life cycle of the asset, reflecting, by the asset server, the end of the life cycle of the asset in the source blockchain, and creating, by the asset server, the asset in the target blockchain.
Claims20
A system, comprising:
- a processor;
- a memory on which are stored machine readable instructions that when executed by the processor, cause the processor to:
- connect to a source blockchain configured to store a digital asset of an asset owner;
- encipher and lock the asset in the source blockchain;
- manifest the asset as a linked asset in a target blockchain;
- track a life cycle of the asset;
- detect an end of the life cycle of the asset;
- reflect the end of the life cycle of the asset in the source blockchain;
- and
- create the asset in the target blockchain.
A method, comprising:
- connecting, by an asset server, to a source blockchain configured to store a digital asset of an asset owner;
- enciphering and locking, by the asset server, the asset in the source blockchain;
- manifesting, by the asset server, the asset as a linked asset in a target blockchain;
- tracking, by the asset server, a life cycle of the asset;
- detecting, by the asset server, an end of the life cycle of the asset;
- reflecting, by the asset server, the end of the life cycle of the asset in the source blockchain;
- and
- creating, by the asset server, the asset in the target blockchain.
A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising instructions, that when read by a processor, cause the processor to perform:
- connecting to a source blockchain configured to store a digital asset of an asset owner;
- enciphering and locking the asset in the source blockchain;
- manifesting the asset as a linked asset in a target blockchain;
- tracking a life cycle of the asset;
- detecting an end of the life cycle of the asset;
- reflecting the end of the life cycle of the asset in the source blockchain;
- and
- creating the asset in the target blockchain.
