US 2025/0094987 A1 · COMPUTING SYSTEM FOR DISTRIBUTING CRYPTOCURRENCY TO NEW USERS

Abstract

A computing system receives a code that is generated based upon an image of an iris of a first user. The image of the iris of the first user is captured by way of an iris scanning device that is under control of a second user. The computing system executes a search over a plurality of codes stored in a data store based upon the code, where the plurality of codes are generated based upon images of irises of a plurality of users. The computing system determines whether the code is included in the plurality of codes based upon search results for the search. Based upon a determination that the code is not included in the plurality of codes, the computing system causes an amount of cryptocurrency to be transferred to a cryptocurrency wallet of the first user.

Claims20

Dependent claims

An iris scanning device comprising:

a camera configured to:
capture an image of an iris of a first user;
and
capture an image of a two-dimensional barcode displayed on a display of a computing device of the first user, wherein the two-dimensional barcode represents a public key of a cryptocurrency wallet of the first user;
a processor;
and
memory storing instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform acts comprising:
generating a code based upon the image of the iris of the first user;
and
causing the code to be transmitted to a computing system over a network connection, wherein the computing system determines whether the code is included in a plurality of codes stored in a data store, wherein the computing system causes an amount of cryptocurrency to be transferred to the cryptocurrency wallet of the first user based upon:
a determination that the code is not included in the plurality of codes;
and
at least one of the image of the two-dimensional barcode or information associated with the image of the two-dimensional barcode.

10 more elements

A computer-readable medium having stored thereon instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform acts comprising:

receiving an image of an iris of a first user obtained captured via an iris scanning device;
receiving an image of a two-dimensional barcode displayed on a display of a computing device of the first user captured via the iris scanning device, wherein the two-dimensional barcode represents a public key of a cryptocurrency wallet of the first user;
generating a code based upon the image of the iris of the first user;
and
causing the code to be transmitted to a computing system over a network connection, wherein the computing system determines whether the code is included in a plurality of codes stored in a data store, wherein the computing system causes an amount of cryptocurrency to be transferred to the cryptocurrency wallet of the first user based upon:
a determination that the code is not included in the plurality of codes;
and
at least one of the image of the two-dimensional barcode or information associated with the image of the two-dimensional barcode.
