Methods for exchanging and evaluating virtual currency

A non-transitory machine-readable storage medium for executing smart contract generated cryptocurrency transactions having an executable computer readable program code for causing at least one hardware processor when the at least one hardware processor executing the computer-readable program code to:

• receive a request to validate, by a secure ledger network, a smart contract;
• in response to a determination to validate the smart contract, update a secure ledger maintained by the secure ledger network with the smart contract;
• receive a request to execute, by the secure ledger network, a transaction by using the smart contract;
• in response to validating the request, perform the transaction by executing the smart contract by the secure ledger network;
• and
• update a secure ledger maintained by the secure ledger network about a completion of the transaction;
• wherein the transaction comprises an exchange of a reserve cryptocurrency token and a smart contract generated cryptocurrency token, which can be minted or burned by the smart contract;
• and
• wherein the smart contract is configured to:
• hold in a reserve a reserve cryptocurrency token used for performing a transaction related to a smart contract generated cryptocurrency token;
• and
• manage the exchange by transferring tokens to or from a user based on a relationship among parameters comprising:
• a total reserve of the reserve cryptocurrency token in the reserve, and a total amount of the smart contract generated cryptocurrency token in circulation.

• hold in a second reserve a second reserve cryptocurrency token;
• and
• manage the exchange by transferring tokens based on a relationship among parameters comprising:
• a first reserve amount of the first reserve cryptocurrency token held in the first reserve, a second reserve amount of the second reserve cryptocurrency token held in the second reserve, and a reserve ratio between the first and second reserve cryptocurrency tokens.
