Abstract
A system for the cryptographically-secure, autonomous control of devices comprising, connected to or remotely operating devices in an electrically powered network and the transaction of the benefits, costs or value created by or transacted through the devices in this electrically powered network.
Claims15
A system comprising:
- a network comprising a plurality of nodes, each node comprising at least one physical component and at least one control component, wherein each node in the plurality of nodes is configured to transact autonomously with every other node in the plurality of nodes;
- wherein a node of the plurality of nodes generates a smart contract, the smart contract configured to:
- receive settlement information from at least two nodes in the network;
- validate a current state of a public ledger;
- generate fulfillment information based on the received settlement information;
- and
- contribute to an updated state of the public ledger using the fulfillment information.
4 more elements
A computer-implemented method comprising:
- receiving, by a self-executing contract, settlement information from at least two nodes in a network, the network comprising a plurality of nodes, each node comprising at least one physical component and at least one control component, wherein each node in the plurality of nodes is configured to transact autonomously with every other node in the plurality of nodes;
- validating a current state of a public ledger;
- generating fulfillment information based on the received settlement information;
- and
- contributing to an updated state of the public ledger using the fulfillment information.
2 more elements
A non-transitory computer storage medium encoded with computer program instructions that when executed by one or more computers cause the one or more computers to perform operations comprising:
- receiving, by a self-executing contract, settlement information from at least two nodes in a network, the network comprising a plurality of nodes, each node comprising at least one physical component and at least one control component, wherein each node in the plurality of nodes is configured to transact autonomously with every other node in the plurality of nodes;
- validating a current state of a public ledger;
- generating fulfillment information based on the received settlement information;
- and
- contributing to an updated state of the public ledger using the fulfillment information.
