Method and apparatus for creating and managing user configurable objects and functions on distributed ledger networks

A computer system for creating and managing configurable objects, the objects being executable on a decentralized computing network to affect asset behaviors, the system comprising:

• at least one computer processor;
• and
• at least on memory device storing instructions that, when executed by the at least one computer processor, cause the at least one computer processor to carry out a method comprising:
• specifying, using a creator wallet, a class, required object properties, wherein the class is defined by a class template expressed as a data structure specifying executable behaviors for the class, the behaviors including permissions, interfaces, functions, properties, events, errors, and dependencies assigned to the class, the class template being stored in a class template registry in the decentralized computing network, wherein the creator wallet includes an address on the decentralized computing network;
• instantiating a configurable object in the item registry, the object having a unique identifier, and a pointer to a class template that is configured to enable desired behaviors of the object;
• routing, by a trusted control plane, requests from authorized users of the configurable object to affect object behaviors, the trusted control plane a smart contract proxy that ensures the security and authenticity of routed requests, the routing using instructions in the data structure of the class template assigned to the object, the data structure including a map to registered smart contract logic that executes the object behaviors, the logic registered in a logic registry, the logic being in the form of smart contract code that is executable in the decentralized computing network;
• and
• executing, via registered smart contract logic the desired object behaviors on a distributed ledger network.
