DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0012] In the present disclosure, the term "alcoholic beverage" is not particularly limited as long as it is, for example, a beverage containing alcohol. The alcoholic beverage may be, for example, any of brewed alcoholic beverages, distilled alcoholic beverages, and mixed alcoholic beverages. Specific examples of the alcoholic beverages include, for example, sake, beer, happoshu, plum wine, shochu, chuhai, wine, whiskey, spirits, liqueur, doburoku, makgeolli, cocktails, brandy, tequila, and rum.

[0013] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present disclosure will be described with reference to the drawings. The present disclosure is not limited to the following embodiment. In each of the drawings, the same parts are given the same reference numerals. In addition, the description of each embodiment can be mutually incorporated unless otherwise specified, and the configurations of each embodiment can be combined unless otherwise specified.

[0014] [Embodiment 1] FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing an example of the configuration of an alcoholic beverage token trading support device 10 according to the present embodiment. As shown in FIG. 1, the device 10 includes a token issuance request acquisition unit 11, a token issuing unit 12, a market unit 13, a trading information acquisition unit 14, a token management unit 15, an option information acquisition unit 16, and an instruction information output unit 17. The device 10 may also include an input unit, an output unit, a display unit, and / or a storage unit, although not shown. As shown in FIG. 1, the device 10 may be capable of communicating with a blockchain network 30 via a communication line network 20, for example, and may further be capable of communicating with a terminal 40 of an alcoholic beverage provider and a terminal 50 of a trader of production unit token information.

[0015] The device 10 may be, for example, a single device including each of the above-mentioned units, or a device to which each of the above-mentioned units can be connected via a communication line network. The device 10 may be connected to an external device described later via the communication line network. The communication line network is not particularly limited, and a known network may be used, for example, wired or wireless. Examples of the communication line network include an Internet line, a World Wide Web (WWW), a telephone line, a Local Area Network (LAN), a Storage Area Network (SAN), a Delay Tolerant Networking (DTN), a Low Power Wide Area (LPWA), and a Local 5G (L5G). Examples of wireless communication include Wi-Fi (registered trademark), Bluetooth (registered trademark), a Local 5G, and a LPWA. Examples of the wireless communication may include a form in which each device directly communicates with each other (Ad Hoc communication), an infrastructure (infrastructure communication), and an indirect communication via an access point. The device 10 may be incorporated into a server as a system, for example. Furthermore, the present device 10 may be, for example, a personal computer (PC, for example, desktop type or notebook type) in which the program of the present disclosure is installed, a smartphone, a tablet terminal, etc. The present device 10 may be in the form of cloud computing or edge computing, for example, in which at least one of the above-mentioned units is on a server and the other units are on a terminal.

[0016] 2 illustrates a block diagram of a hardware configuration of the present device 10. The present device 10 includes, for example, a central processing unit (CPU, GPU, etc.) 101, a memory 102, a bus 103, a storage device 104, an input device 105, an output device 106, a communication device 107, etc. Each part of the present device 10 is connected to each other via the bus 103 by each interface (I / F).

[0017] The central processing unit 101 cooperates with other components through a controller (such as a system controller or an I / O controller) and controls the entire device 10. In the device 10, the central processing unit 101 executes, for example, the program disclosed herein and other programs, and also reads and writes various information. Specifically, for example, the central processing unit 101 functions as a token issuance request acquisition unit 11, a token issuing unit 12, a market unit 13, a transaction information acquisition unit 14, a token management unit 15, an option information acquisition unit 16, and an instruction information output unit 17. The device 10 may include other calculation units such as a CPU, a GPU (Graphics Processing Unit), an APU (Accelerated Processing Unit), or a combination of these as a calculation unit.

[0018] The bus 103 can also be connected to, for example, an external device. Examples of the external device include an external storage device (external database, etc.), a printer, an external input device, an external display device, an external imaging device, etc. The present device 10 can be connected to an external network (the above-mentioned communication line network) by, for example, a communication device 107 connected to the bus 103, and can also be connected to other devices via the external network.

[0019] An example of the memory 102 is a main memory (primary storage device). When the central processing unit 101 performs processing, the memory 102 reads various operation programs, such as the program of the present disclosure, stored in the storage device 104 described below, and the central processing unit 101 receives data from the memory 102 and executes the program. The main memory is, for example, a RAM (random access memory). The memory 102 may also be, for example, a ROM (read only memory).

[0020] The storage device 104 is also called an auxiliary storage device, for example, in contrast to the main memory (primary storage device). As described above, the storage device 104 stores an operating program including the program of the present disclosure. The storage device 104 may be, for example, a combination of a recording medium and a drive that reads and writes from the recording medium. The recording medium is not particularly limited, and may be, for example, an internal or external type, such as a HD (hard disk), CD-ROM, CD-R, CD-RW, MO, DVD, flash memory, and memory card. The storage device 104 may be, for example, a hard disk drive (HDD) in which a recording medium and a drive are integrated, and a solid state drive (SSD). When the present device 10 includes the storage unit, for example, the storage device 104 functions as the storage unit. The memory unit can store, for example, information about the alcohol provider and trader (identification information (e.g., name or title, address, telephone number, ID, etc.), attribute information (e.g., gender, age, organization affiliation, address, contact information, hobbies, preferences, etc.), biometric information, etc.), token issuance request information, production unit identification information, production unit token information, product unit identification information, product unit token information, transaction information, owner information, option information, product management instruction information, management information, shipping request information, and shipping instructions, etc.

[0021] In the present device 10, the memory 102 and the storage device 104 can also store various information such as log information, information acquired from an external database (not shown) or an external device, information generated by the present device 10, and information used when the present device 10 executes processing. In this case, the memory 102 and the storage device 104 may store, for example, the above-mentioned information on the user of the present device. Note that at least a portion of the information may be stored, for example, in an external server other than the memory 102 and the storage device 104, or may be distributed and stored in multiple terminals using block chain technology or the like.

[0022] The device 10 further includes, for example, an input device 105 and an output device 106. The input device 105 may be, for example, a pointing device such as a touch panel, a track pad, or a mouse; a keyboard; an imaging means such as a camera or a scanner; a card reader such as an IC card reader or a magnetic card reader; and an audio input means such as a microphone. The output device 106 may be, for example, a display device such as an LED display or a liquid crystal display; an audio output device such as a speaker; a printer; or the like. In the first embodiment, the input device 105 and the output device 106 are configured separately, but the input device 105 and the output device 106 may be configured as an integrated device, such as a touch panel display.

[0023] Next, an example of the alcoholic beverage token trading support method of this embodiment will be described based on the flowchart of Fig. 3. The alcoholic beverage token trading support method of this embodiment is implemented as follows, for example, using the device 10 of Fig. 1 or Fig. 2. Note that the alcoholic beverage token trading support method of this embodiment is not limited to the use of the device 10 of Fig. 1 or Fig. 2.

[0024] First, the token issuance request acquisition unit 11 acquires production unit token issuance request information (S1, token issuance request acquisition step). The token issuance request information is, for example, information from a person who wishes to issue production unit token information described later (also referred to as an issue requester, for example, a provider of alcoholic beverage products (for example, a manufacturer, seller, distributor, etc. of alcoholic beverages)) requesting the issuance of production unit token information from the device 10, and includes production unit identification information of the alcoholic beverage product. The production unit identification information is information for identifying the production unit of the alcoholic beverage product. The production unit of the alcoholic beverage product is a predetermined unit during the production of the alcoholic beverage product, and may be a production container (for example, a tank, a barrel, etc.) unit during production, or a storage container (for example, a barrel, etc.) unit before being bottled as a product after production. The production unit is also referred to as a lot unit, for example. The production unit identification information is not particularly limited as long as it is information that can identify (specify) the production unit, and examples of the information include a production number (lot number) and identification information of the storage container. The token issuance request acquisition unit 11 may acquire the production unit token issuance request information, for example, from the terminal 40 of the alcohol provider (issuance applicant) in Fig. 1, or may acquire it by input from an administrator of the device 10 who receives information provided by the alcohol provider. The token issuance request acquisition unit 11 may acquire the production unit token issuance request information directly from the terminal 40, or may acquire the production unit token issuance request information indirectly. In the latter case, the token issuance request acquisition unit 11 may acquire the production unit token issuance request information from a server device or storage that acquires and accumulates the production unit token issuance request information output by the terminal 40, for example.

[0025] The token issuance request information may include, for example, trading information. The trading information is, for example, information for trading the production unit token information with traders via the market section 13 described later. The transaction information includes, for example, identification information of the production unit token information to be traded, information on the trader (e.g., the provider) (e.g., trader identification information, etc.), price information of the production unit token information, information on whether the price can change, the transaction period, information on the production unit of the alcoholic beverage product identified by the production unit identification information linked to the production unit token information (e.g., product name, alcohol content, information on the production location (e.g., place of origin, manufacturer (brewery), etc.), information on the manufacturing method (e.g., raw materials, rice polishing ratio, variety, etc.), information on taste (e.g., sweetness, sourness, sake meter value, etc.), capacity, date of manufacture, product appearance (e.g., container photo), product description, etc. The trader identification information is, for example, information for identifying the provider of the alcoholic beverages, and may include information such as store name, product information (product type, price), delivery method, name, nickname, address, telephone number, email address, ID, identification number, and identification information of the terminal owned by the provider of the alcoholic beverages (e.g., serial number, IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity), IP address, MAC address, etc.).

[0026] Next, the token issuing unit 12 issues production unit token information on the blockchain for each production unit of the alcoholic beverage product identified by the production unit identification information based on the production unit token issuance request information (S2, token issuing step). The production unit token information is, for example, a non-fungible token (NFT) that is linked 1:1 to the production unit identified by the production unit identification information. The NFT has a unique identifier that enables it to be distinguished from other NFTs, and therefore can have a unique value that is distinguished from other NFTs. Specifically, the token issuing unit 12 can issue the production unit token information on the blockchain by storing the production unit token information in each node 31 of the blockchain network 30 connected to the device 10 via the communication line network 20. The token issuing unit 12 may, for example, further record information on the alcoholic beverage product that is linked to the production unit token information in the blockchain network 30. The token issuing unit 12 may, for example, store the production unit token information in the memory 102 or the storage device 104. In this case, the token issuing unit 12 may, for example, store production unit identification information of the production unit of the alcoholic beverage product corresponding to the production unit token information, in association with the production unit token information. Note that in Fig. 1, each node 31 of the blockchain network 30 is depicted as a different terminal from the alcoholic beverage provider's terminal 40 and the trader's terminal 50, but some or all of the alcoholic beverage provider's terminal 40 and the trader's terminal 50 may function as the node 31 of the blockchain network 30. The token issuing process of S2 may also be referred to as, for example, a production unit token issuing process.

[0027] The production unit token information may also include, for example, an additional program that enables additional functions to be realized. The additional program is not particularly limited, and may be, for example, a program for realizing a mechanism for adding a part of the distribution price as a fee to the manager of the device 10 or the provider of the alcoholic beverage when the production unit token information is circulated. The production unit token information may further include, for example, images such as illustrations and content information such as music.

[0028] Next, the market unit 13 publishes the production unit token information in the market (S3, market step). Specifically, the market unit 13 can publish the production unit token information in the market by, for example, transmitting the production unit token information to a general blockchain marketplace via a communication line network. In addition, the market unit 13 may, for example, further transmit trading information to the blockchain marketplace. The trading information is, for example, information necessary for trading NFTs in the blockchain market. The trading information may, for example, be information included in the token issuance request information acquired in S1, or may be information stored in the memory 102 or storage device 104 of the present device 10. As a specific example, for example, the alcohol provider using the present device 10 may register an account to be used when using the present device 10, and part or all of the trading information may be linked to the account and stored. The market unit 13 may, for example, itself have a function as the blockchain marketplace. In this case, the market unit 13 of the present device 10 may be, for example, a market (store) server, which is a device independent of the other units of the present device 10. In this case, the market (store) server can communicate with, for example, a device having the other units of the present device 10. In addition, when the market unit 13 has the marketplace function, the payment of the price may be made by the present device 10, or may be made separately outside the present device 10. In the former case, for example, the present device 10 may include a payment unit, and in this case, the payment unit can acquire trading price information of the manufacturing unit token information based on the trading information described later, transmit the trading price information to a payment server outside the device, and acquire the settlement result by the payment server, thereby executing the payment process. In addition, the payment process is not particularly limited, and for example, various methods in known payment devices can be used.

[0029] The market unit 13 may have, for example, a market function for reselling the production unit token information. In this case, the market unit 13 can, for example, obtain listing information of the production unit token information from the owner of the production unit token information and publish the listing information in the market. The listing information can include, for example, information for identifying the production unit token information that the owner wishes to resell, the owner's identification information (name, nickname, address, telephone number, email address, ID, identification number, identification information of the terminal owned by the alcohol provider or the administrator of the device 10 (for example, serial number, IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity), IP address, MAC address, etc.)), price information, option information to be described later, etc.

[0030] Next, the transaction information acquisition unit 14 acquires transaction information of the manufacturing unit token information in the market (S4, transaction information acquisition step). The transaction information is, for example, information on the transaction of the manufacturing unit token information in the blockchain marketplace, and includes, for example, a trader (for example, a seller, a purchaser), a transaction date and time, a transaction location, the manufacturing unit token information that is the subject of the transaction, and a transaction price. The transaction information may also include, for example, option information described later in the second embodiment. The transaction information acquisition unit 14 can acquire the transaction information, for example, from a server device that constructs the blockchain marketplace. In addition, when the market section 13 of the present device 10 has a function as a blockchain marketplace, the transaction information may be acquired from the market section 13. When the market section 13 has a market function for resale, the transaction information acquisition unit 14 may acquire, for example, transaction information in the market of the manufacturing unit token information based on the listing information. The transaction information acquisition unit 14 may store the acquired transaction information in the memory 102 or the storage device 104, for example.

[0031] Next, the token management unit 15 updates the owner information of the production unit token information on the blockchain based on the transaction information (S5, token management step). For example, based on the transaction information, the token management unit 15 can register the purchaser of the production unit token information as the owner information in the blockchain network 30. In addition, when production unit token information that already has an owner is put up for sale on the market section 13 and the production unit token information is purchased by another trader, the token management unit 15 registers the purchaser as a new owner of the traded production unit token information in the blockchain network 30. The registration of information in the blockchain network 30 can be, for example, the same as in the S2 step. As a result, the owner of the production unit token information can be registered in the blockchain network 30, and the owner of the product identified by the product identification information linked to the production unit token information can be clarified.

[0032] Next, the option information acquisition unit 16 acquires option information related to the alcoholic beverage product by linking it to the production unit token information (S6, option information acquisition step). The option information acquisition unit 16 may acquire, for example, the option information input by a user during transaction processing in the marketplace, or may acquire option information separately input (purchased) by a user who has traded the production unit token information. In this way, the option information acquisition unit 16 can acquire, for example, option information related to the alcoholic beverage product. For example, the option information acquisition unit 16 may store the acquired option information in the memory 102 or the storage device 104 by linking it to the production unit token information linked to the corresponding alcoholic beverage product. In addition, the token management unit 15 may store the acquired option information on the blockchain by linking it to the production unit token information.

[0033] The option information is, for example, information on options that can be selected by a purchaser when trading the production unit token information. Specifically, the option information includes, for example, information on the handling (management, storage state, delivery) of the production unit of the alcoholic beverage product identified by the production unit identification information linked to the production unit token information. The option information includes, for example, information on the storage of the production unit of the alcoholic beverage product (storage temperature, storage location, storage period). The information on the storage state may be, for example, information that specifies in detail the storage conditions (management conditions) such as temperature, humidity, brightness of the storage location, storage container, storage period, etc., or information that specifies the category of the storage state (management state) such as freezing, quick freezing (also called flash freezing), refrigeration, room temperature, aging, etc. In the latter case, it is preferable that the device 10 stores in its storage unit, for example, a combination of the category of the storage state and the corresponding detailed storage condition information for each type of alcoholic beverage product.

[0034] Furthermore, the optional information may include, for example, information regarding the delivery of the production unit of the alcoholic beverage product (delivery company, delivery time, delivery conditions (temperature conditions such as refrigerated, frozen, room temperature, etc.), delivery location, etc.). The information regarding the delivery of the production unit of the alcoholic beverage product may, for example, be acquired simultaneously with information regarding the storage of the production unit of the alcoholic beverage product, or may be acquired separately. In the latter case, optional information including information regarding delivery is also referred to, for example, as delivery request information. The owner of the production unit token information may, for example, be able to make a delivery request at any time for the production unit of the alcoholic beverage product linked to the production unit token information that he or she owns, or may only be able to make a delivery request within the expiration date of the production unit token information that is preset.

[0035] Next, the instruction information output unit 17 generates instruction information based on the option information, and outputs the instruction information (S7, instruction information output step).

[0036] When the optional information includes information on the storage of the manufacturing unit of the alcoholic beverage product, the instruction information output unit 17 can generate, for example, product management instruction information based on the optional information as the instruction information. Specifically, when the optional information includes detailed information on the storage state of the manufacturing unit of the alcoholic beverage product, the instruction information output unit 17 can generate the storage conditions as the instruction information. Furthermore, when the optional information is information that specifies a category of the storage state, the instruction information output unit 17 can, for example, refer to the storage unit, refer to the storage conditions linked to the category of the storage state corresponding to the alcoholic beverage product purchased by the purchaser, and generate and output information on the storage conditions as the instruction information. The output destination of the instruction information may be, for example, the provider of the alcoholic beverage product, the administrator of the device 10, a delivery company, or a custodian of the alcoholic beverage product. It is preferable that the delivery company and the custodian are, for example, persons designated by the administrator.

[0037] The manager of the production unit of the alcoholic beverage product to which the instruction information is output (e.g., the provider, the custodian, etc.) can change the storage state of the production unit of the alcoholic beverage product based on the instruction information. The change of the storage state may be performed, for example, by the manager himself or by another person (e.g., a delivery company, a distributor, a custodian) who receives an instruction from the manager of the alcoholic beverage product. The manager can then transmit information on the storage state of the alcoholic beverage product to the device 10 as management information using, for example, his / her own terminal (terminal 40). The instruction information output unit 17 of the device 10 can, for example, acquire the transmitted management information and output the management information in association with the corresponding production unit token information. The output may be output directly to the terminal of the provider, trader, purchaser, etc., or may be output so as to be viewable on the blockchain marketplace. This allows the purchaser of the production unit token information (owner of the alcoholic beverage product) to check the management information of the production unit of the alcoholic beverage product via the device 10. However, without being limited to this, for example, the device 10 may acquire storage information of the corresponding production unit of alcoholic beverage products as the management information by using cameras and various sensors installed in the storage facility of the production unit of the alcoholic beverage products.

[0038] When the optional information includes information regarding the delivery of the production unit of the alcoholic beverage product, the instruction information output unit 17 generates, for example, delivery instructions based on the optional information and outputs the delivery instruction information. Specifically, the instruction information output unit 17 generates delivery instructions for arranging the delivery of the alcoholic beverage product based on, for example, information regarding the delivery of the production unit of the alcoholic beverage product (delivery company, delivery time, delivery conditions (temperature conditions such as refrigerated, frozen, room temperature, etc.), delivery location, etc.). Then, the instruction information output unit 17 can output the delivery instructions to a terminal of the provider, the manager, the delivery company, the warehouse management company, the distributor, etc.

[0039] The manager of the alcoholic beverage products who receives the instruction information, for example, arranges for the delivery of the alcoholic beverage products based on the delivery instruction. The delivery arrangements may be made by the manager himself, or by another person (for example, a delivery company, distributor, storage company) who receives an instruction from the manager. The manager can then transmit information on the delivery status of the alcoholic beverage products to the device 10 as management information, for example, using his own terminal (terminal 40). The instruction information output unit 17 of the device 10 can, for example, acquire the transmitted management information and output the management information in association with the corresponding production unit token information. The output may be directly output to the terminal of the provider, trader, purchaser, etc., or may be output so as to be viewable on the blockchain marketplace. This allows the purchaser of the production unit token information (owner of the alcoholic beverage product) to check the delivery status of the alcoholic beverage product via the device 10.

[0040] According to the alcoholic beverage token trading support device of this embodiment, it is possible to issue production unit token information that is linked 1:1 to the production unit identified by the production unit identification information of the alcoholic beverage product, and the transaction of the production unit token information can be recorded by the blockchain network. In addition, the production unit token information issued by the alcoholic beverage token trading support device of this embodiment is, for example, linked 1:1 to the production unit identified by the production unit identification information. Therefore, according to the alcoholic beverage token trading support device of this embodiment, by trading the production unit token information, it is possible to indirectly trade the production unit of the alcoholic beverage product. The production unit token information has a 1:1 relationship with the production unit identification information, and the transaction history and information on the production unit of the alcoholic beverage product linked to the production unit token information can also be recorded in the blockchain network. Therefore, it is possible to guarantee the authenticity and value of the alcoholic beverage product being traded.

[0041] It is generally known that the value of an alcoholic beverage product varies greatly depending on its storage conditions. On the other hand, even if it is the same alcoholic beverage product, how to evaluate the value of the alcoholic beverage product based on its storage conditions varies greatly depending on the preferences and values ​​of the consumer of the alcoholic beverage product. Specifically, for example, even if the same alcoholic beverage is produced at the same manufacturing plant, one consumer may highly value fresh alcohol immediately after production, while another consumer may highly value alcohol that has been aged over the years. However, the ability to select the storage and management conditions of the alcoholic beverage product (for example, whether to flash freeze fresh alcohol immediately after production or to store it for aging, etc.) is usually limited to the manufacturer of the alcoholic beverage product, and traders of the alcoholic beverage product have no room to intervene in the storage and management conditions of the alcoholic beverage product. The present disclosure also enables traders of production unit token information to specify the category of storage state as optional information even in such cases. Therefore, according to the present disclosure, a trader who purchases production unit token information will be able to choose, for example, to flash-freeze some of the alcoholic beverages to ensure value for consumers who prefer fresh alcohol, and age some of the alcoholic beverages to ensure value for consumers who prefer aged alcohol, making it possible to maintain and manage the asset value of the alcoholic beverages in a more stable state.

[0042] Furthermore, among alcoholic beverages, for example, wine increases in trading price over time, so that the trading price increases with secondary distribution, and the value as an asset increases. In contrast, compared to wine, the value as an asset of sake, beer, plum wine, shochu, etc. is not stable, and since there is no secondary distribution market, the trading price is unlikely to rise, and profitability is low. Therefore, the alcoholic beverage token trading support device of this embodiment issues production unit token information for these alcoholic beverage products, and after the alcoholic beverage provider sells them, resale is performed between other traders via the production unit token information, so that the final sales price can be expected to increase. In this case, if the production unit token information has, as the additional function, for example, a function of adding a part of the distribution price as a fee to the administrator of this device 10 or the provider of the alcoholic beverage when the production unit token information is circulated, profitability can be further improved. Furthermore, compared to wine, sake often has a low market price for its product quality, so the alcoholic beverage token trading support device of this embodiment is suitable for supporting transactions via production unit token information of sake products.

[0043] [Embodiment 2] The second embodiment is another example of the alcoholic beverage token transaction support device of the present disclosure.

[0044] The alcoholic beverage token trading support device of this embodiment is similar to the alcoholic beverage token trading support device 10 of the first embodiment, except that it includes a refill information acquisition unit in addition to the configuration of the alcoholic beverage token trading support device 10 of the first embodiment, and the description thereof can be used. The alcoholic beverage token trading support device 10A of this embodiment includes, for example, a refill information acquisition unit, which acquires refill information for the production unit of the alcoholic beverage product linked to the production unit token information, the refill information is information for refilling the production unit of the alcoholic beverage product into a product unit, the instruction information output unit generates refill instruction information based on the refill information as the instruction information and outputs the refill instruction information, the token issuing unit issues product unit token information on the blockchain for each product unit of the alcoholic beverage product based on the refill information, the market unit publishes the product unit token information on the market, the transaction information acquisition unit acquires transaction information in the market for the product unit token information, and the token management unit updates the owner information of the product unit token information on the blockchain based on the transaction information.

[0045] Fig. 4 is a block diagram showing an example of the configuration of the alcoholic beverage token trading support device 10A of this embodiment. As shown in Fig. 4, the alcoholic beverage token trading support device 10A includes a refill information acquisition unit 18 in addition to the configuration of the alcoholic beverage token trading support device 10 of embodiment 1. The hardware configuration of the alcoholic beverage token trading support device 10A is the same as that of the alcoholic beverage token trading support device 10 of Fig. 2, except that the central processing unit 101 has the configuration of the alcoholic beverage token trading support device 10A of Fig. 4 instead of the configuration of the alcoholic beverage token trading support device 10 of Fig. 1.

[0046] Next, an example of the liquor token transaction support method of this embodiment will be described based on the flowchart of Fig. 5. The liquor token transaction support method of this embodiment is implemented as follows, for example, using the device 10A of Fig. 4. Note that the liquor token transaction support method of this embodiment is not limited to use of the device 10A of Fig. 4. Also, S11 to S18 in the following description may be executed simultaneously with S1 to S7 in the first embodiment, or may be executed sequentially or in parallel.

[0047] The refilling information acquisition unit 18 acquires refilling information for the production unit of the alcoholic beverage product linked to the production unit token information (S11, refilling information acquisition step). The refilling information is, for example, information for refilling the production unit of the alcoholic beverage product into a product unit. The product unit is, for example, a unit in which the alcoholic beverage product of the production unit is filled into a container to be traded. The type of container to be traded is not particularly limited, and may be, for example, a barrel, a bottle, a can, or a bottle. In addition, the material of the container is not particularly limited, and, for example, any material can be used. Specific examples of the material include glass such as glass and crystal glass; minerals such as quartz; metals such as stainless steel, aluminum, titanium, and tin; plastics such as PET (polyethylene terephthalate), PP (polypropylene), and PE (polyethylene); wood; bamboo; and the like. The refilling information includes, for example, information specifying the type of the container, information specifying the material of the container, information specifying the filling amount per unit container, information specifying the refill amount per unit container, and the like. The refill information may be, for example, information that specifies refilling of the manufacturing unit into one type of product unit, or information that specifies refilling into multiple types of product units. The refill information acquisition unit 18 may acquire, for example, the refill information input by a user during transaction processing in the marketplace, or may acquire refill information separately input (purchased) by a user who has traded the manufacturing unit token information. In this way, the refill information acquisition unit 18 can acquire, for example, the refill information. The refill information may be, for example, option information that a trader can select (purchase) when trading the manufacturing unit token information. The refill information acquisition unit 18 may, for example, link the acquired refill information to the manufacturing unit token information linked to the corresponding alcoholic beverage product and store it in the memory 102 or the storage device 104. In addition, the token management unit 15 may, for example, link the acquired refill information to the manufacturing unit token information and store it on the blockchain.

[0048] Next, the instruction information output unit 17 generates refill instruction information based on the refill information as the instruction information, and outputs the refill instruction information (S12, instruction information output step). The refill instruction information may be output to, for example, the provider of the alcoholic beverage product, the manager of the device 10A, or the custodian of the alcoholic beverage product. It is preferable that the delivery company and the custodian are, for example, persons designated by the manager. S12 is also referred to as, for example, a refill instruction information output step.

[0049] The manager of the alcoholic beverage product (the provider, the manager, the custodian) to whom the refilling instruction information has been output refills the production unit of the alcoholic beverage product corresponding to the production unit token information into the product unit based on the refilling instruction information.

[0050] The token issuing unit 12 issues product unit token information on the blockchain for each product unit of the alcoholic beverage product, for example, based on the refill information (S13, token issuing process). First, the token issuing unit 12 generates product unit identification information for each product unit to be refilled from the manufacturing unit, for example, based on the refill information. Specifically, the token issuing unit 12, for example, specifies the quantity of the product units to be refilled from the refill information, and assigns product unit identification information capable of identifying each of the specified quantities of the product units. Then, the token issuing unit 12 generates product unit token information by linking the product unit identification information to each of the product units. The product unit token information is, for example, an NFT (Non-Fungible Token) that is linked 1:1 to the product unit specified by the product unit identification information. The NFT has a unique identifier that enables it to be distinguished from other NFTs, and therefore can have a unique value that is distinguished from other NFTs. Specifically, the token issuing unit 12 can issue the product unit token information on the blockchain by storing the product unit token information in each node 31 of the blockchain network 30 connected to the present device 10A via the communication line network 20. The blockchain that issues the product unit token information may be the same as the blockchain that issued the production unit token information in S2, or may be a different blockchain. For example, the token issuing unit 12 may further record information on the alcoholic beverage product linked to the product unit token information in the blockchain network 30. For example, the token issuing unit 12 may store the product unit token information in the memory 102 or the storage device 104. In this case, the token issuing unit 12 may store product unit identification information of the product unit of the alcoholic beverage product corresponding to the product unit token information, linked to the product unit token information. Note that in FIG. 4, each node 31 of the blockchain network 30 is described as a terminal different from the alcoholic beverage provider's terminal 40 and the trader's terminal 50, but some or all of the alcoholic beverage provider's terminal 40 and the trader's terminal 50 may function as the node 31 of the blockchain network 30. The token issuing process in S13 may also be referred to as a product unit token issuing process, for example.

[0051] Furthermore, the token issuing unit 12 may record the production unit token information linked to the production unit identification information that identifies the production unit from which the product unit was refilled based on the refill information, in association with the product unit token information of the product unit. This makes it possible to identify the production unit from which the product unit was refilled from the product unit, for example, from the product unit token information, and to transfer various information linked to the production unit token information to the product unit token information.

[0052] The product unit token information may include, for example, an additional program that enables additional functions. The additional program is not particularly limited, and may be, for example, a program for realizing a mechanism for adding a part of the distribution price as a fee to the manager of the device 10A or the provider of the alcoholic beverage when the product unit token information is distributed. The product unit token information may further include, for example, images such as illustrations and content information such as music.

[0053] The market unit 13 publishes the product unit token information to the market (S14, market step). The market may be the same as or different from the market in the S3 step of the first embodiment. The process of S14 can be performed in the same manner as the S3 step of the first embodiment, except that the product unit token information is published instead of the manufacturing unit token information.

[0054] The transaction information acquisition unit 14 acquires transaction information of the product unit token information in the market (S15, transaction information acquisition step). The process of S15 can be performed in the same manner as the S4 step of the first embodiment, except that, for example, instead of the transaction information of the manufacturing unit token information, the transaction information of the product unit token information is acquired. In addition, the description of the first embodiment can be used for the description of the transaction information.

[0055] The token management unit 15 updates the owner information of the product unit token information on the blockchain based on the transaction information (S16, token management step). The process of S16 can be performed in the same manner as step S5 of the first embodiment, except that the owner information of the product unit token information is updated instead of the owner information of the manufacturing unit token information.

[0056] The option information acquisition unit 16 acquires option information related to the product unit of the alcoholic beverage product by linking it with the product unit token information (S17, option information acquisition step). The process of S17 can be performed in the same manner as step S6 of the first embodiment, except that the option information of the product unit token information is acquired instead of the option information of the production unit token information.

[0057] The option information is, for example, information on options that can be selected by a purchaser when trading the product unit token information. Specifically, the option information includes, for example, information on the handling (management, storage state, delivery) of the product unit of the alcoholic beverage product identified by the product unit identification information linked to the product unit token information. The option information includes, for example, information on the storage of the product unit of the alcoholic beverage product (storage temperature, storage location, storage period). The information on the storage state may be, for example, information that specifies in detail the storage conditions (management conditions) such as temperature, humidity, brightness of the storage location, storage container, storage period, etc., or information that specifies the category of the storage state (management state) such as freezing, quick freezing (also called flash freezing), refrigeration, room temperature, and aging. In the latter case, it is preferable that the device 10A stores in its storage unit, for example, a combination of the category of the storage state and the corresponding detailed storage condition information for each type of alcoholic beverage product.

[0058] Furthermore, the optional information may include, for example, information regarding the delivery of the alcoholic beverage product per unit (delivery company, delivery time, delivery conditions (temperature conditions such as refrigerated, frozen, room temperature, etc.), delivery location, etc.). The information regarding the delivery of the alcoholic beverage product per unit may be acquired, for example, simultaneously with information regarding the storage of the alcoholic beverage product per unit, or may be acquired separately. In the latter case, optional information including information regarding delivery is also referred to, for example, as delivery request information. The owner of the product unit token information may be able to make a delivery request at any time for the product unit of the alcoholic beverage product linked to the product unit token information that he or she owns, or may be able to make a delivery request only within the expiration date of the product unit token information that is preset.

[0059] The instruction information output unit 17 generates instruction information based on the option information and outputs the instruction information (S18, instruction information output step). The process of S18 can be performed in the same manner as step S7 in the first embodiment. The explanation of the first embodiment can be applied to the instruction information.

[0060] When the optional information includes information on the storage of the alcoholic beverage product in units of products, the instruction information output unit 17 can generate, for example, product management instruction information based on the optional information as the instruction information. Specifically, when the optional information includes detailed information on the storage state of the alcoholic beverage product in units of products, the instruction information output unit 17 can generate the storage conditions as the instruction information. Furthermore, when the optional information is information specifying a category of the storage state, the instruction information output unit 17 can, for example, refer to the storage unit, refer to the storage conditions linked to the category of the storage state corresponding to the alcoholic beverage product purchased by the purchaser, and generate and output information on the storage conditions as the instruction information. The output destination of the instruction information may be, for example, the provider of the alcoholic beverage product, the administrator of the device 10A, a delivery company, or a custodian of the alcoholic beverage product. It is preferable that the delivery company and the custodian are, for example, persons designated by the administrator.

[0061] The manager of the alcoholic beverage product (e.g., the provider, the custodian, etc.) to whom the instruction information is output can change the storage status of the alcoholic beverage product based on the instruction information. The change in the storage status may be performed by the manager himself, or may be performed by another person (e.g., a delivery company, a distributor, a custodian) who receives an instruction from the manager of the alcoholic beverage product. The manager can then transmit information on the storage status of the alcoholic beverage product to the device 10A as management information, for example, using his / her own terminal (terminal 40). The instruction information output unit 17 of the device 10A can, for example, acquire the transmitted management information and output the management information in association with the corresponding product unit token information. The output may be directly output to the terminal of the provider, trader, purchaser, etc., or may be output so as to be viewable on the blockchain marketplace. This allows the purchaser of the product unit token information (owner of the alcoholic beverage product) to check the management information of the product unit of the alcoholic beverage product via the device 10A. However, without being limited to this, for example, the present device 10A may acquire storage information for each product of the corresponding alcoholic beverage product as the management information by using cameras and various sensors installed in a storage facility for each product of the alcoholic beverage product.

[0062] When the optional information includes information regarding delivery of the alcoholic beverage product on a product-by-product basis, the instruction information output unit 17 generates delivery instructions based on the optional information, for example, and outputs the delivery instruction information. Specifically, the instruction information output unit 17 generates delivery instructions for arranging delivery of the alcoholic beverage product based on information regarding delivery of the alcoholic beverage product on a product-by-product basis (delivery company, delivery time, delivery conditions (temperature conditions such as refrigerated, frozen, room temperature, etc.), delivery location, etc.). Then, the instruction information output unit 17 can output the delivery instructions to a terminal of the provider, the manager, the delivery company, the warehouse management company, the distributor, etc.

[0063] The manager of the alcoholic beverage products who receives the instruction information, for example, arranges for the delivery of the alcoholic beverage products based on the delivery instruction. The delivery arrangements may be made by the manager himself, or by another person (for example, a delivery company, distributor, storage company) who receives an instruction from the manager. The manager can then transmit information on the delivery status of the alcoholic beverage products to the device 10A as management information, for example, using his own terminal (terminal 40). The instruction information output unit 17 of the device 10A can, for example, acquire the transmitted management information and output the management information in association with the corresponding product unit token information. The output may be output directly to the terminal of the provider, trader, purchaser, etc., or may be output so as to be viewable on the blockchain marketplace. This allows the purchaser of the product unit token information (owner of the alcoholic beverage product) to check the delivery status of the alcoholic beverage product via the device 10A.

[0064] The alcoholic beverage token trading support device of this embodiment can, for example, acquire refill information for the production unit of the alcoholic beverage product linked to the production unit token information by a refill information acquisition unit, and output refill instruction information for refilling the production unit into a product unit. As a result, for example, a trader who has purchased production unit token information corresponding to the production unit of the alcoholic beverage product can refill the production unit (e.g., alcohol per barrel) linked to the production unit token information he owns into any product unit (e.g., alcohol per bottle). In addition, at this time, for example, the type of container to be refilled into the product unit can be specified as the refill information, so that the trader can prepare the product unit according to the demand of the consumer he expects, and therefore the market value of the alcoholic beverage product can be more appropriately managed.

[0065] In addition, the alcoholic beverage token trading support device of this embodiment can issue product unit token information linked 1:1 to the product unit of the alcoholic beverage product based on the refill information, for example, and can record the transaction of the product unit token information by a blockchain network. In addition, the product unit token information issued by the alcoholic beverage token trading support device of this embodiment is linked 1:1 to the product unit specified by the product unit identification information, for example. Therefore, according to the alcoholic beverage token trading support device of this embodiment, by trading the product unit token information, it is possible to indirectly trade the product unit of the alcoholic beverage product. And, the product unit token information has a 1:1 relationship with the product unit identification information, and the transaction history and information on the product unit of the alcoholic beverage product linked to the product unit token information can also be recorded in the blockchain network. Therefore, it is possible to guarantee the authenticity and value of the alcoholic beverage product being traded.

[0066] Furthermore, the alcoholic beverage token trading support device of this embodiment allows traders of product unit token information to specify a category of storage state as optional information. Therefore, according to the present disclosure, traders who purchase product unit token information can select, for example, to quickly freeze some alcoholic beverages to guarantee value for consumers who prefer fresh alcoholic beverages and to age some alcoholic beverages to guarantee value for consumers who prefer aged alcoholic beverages, making it possible to maintain and manage the asset value of alcoholic beverages in a more stable state.

[0067] [Embodiment 3] The third embodiment is an example of use of the alcoholic beverage token transaction support device 10 (10A) of the first and second embodiments.

[0068] In this embodiment, for example, sake is used as an example of the alcoholic beverage product, and a case is described in which a sake brewery, which is an alcoholic beverage provider, uses the device 10 to generate a production unit NFT (barrel unit NFT) for the sake product and supports trading of the production unit of the alcoholic beverage product through the barrel unit NFT, but the present disclosure is not limited to the following description. As described above, the device 10 can be used to support trading of various alcoholic beverage products, not limited to sake.

[0069] First, a person wishing to issue a barrel-unit NFT (for example, an employee of a sake brewery that is the alcohol provider, an administrator of this device 10 who has received a request from the alcohol provider, etc.) accesses this device 10, for example, from his / her own terminal 40, and inputs token issuance request information related to the produced sake to request the issuance of a barrel-unit NFT. FIG. 6 shows an example of a screen displayed on the terminal 40 that has accessed this device 10. Note that the example screen shown in FIG. 6 is an example, and does not limit the present disclosure in any way. A person wishing to issue a barrel-unit NFT can request the issuance of a barrel-unit NFT by, for example, inputting the necessary information for each item (product image, product name, product description, link to details page, detailed information, Collection, number of editions, Blockchain, etc.) as the token issuance request information on the screen shown in FIG.

[0070] The device 10 issues a barrel-unit NFT (production unit token information) that is associated with the production unit identification information on a one-to-one basis on the blockchain. The device 10 then publishes the registered barrel-unit NFT on the blockchain marketplace through the market unit 13. FIG. 7 shows an example of a screen of the NFT market published by the device 10, but the screen example shown in FIG. 7 is an example and does not limit the present disclosure in any way. As shown in FIG. 7, the published barrel-unit NFT (Sake 1 #111) can be searched, for example, by the function of the marketplace, and is displayed in a list by a user's search operation. The search is not particularly limited, and examples include keyword search, price search, tag search, etc. The marketplace may also have, for example, a tag search function, a sorting function, a filter function, etc. The marketplace may also have, for example, a function of tallying and displaying the number of views and likes for each barrel-unit NFT. The marketplace may further have a function of displaying a ranking of barrel-unit NFTs based on the trading performance of the barrel-unit NFTs (volume, price, price fluctuation range, number of views, number of likes, etc.). In this case, the aggregation for displaying the rankings may be performed for each condition, such as the type of blockchain, place of production, and trading period.

[0071] A trader who wishes to purchase a sake barrel via the device 10 can access the blockchain marketplace published by the device 10 using his / her own terminal 50 and view the barrel-unit NFTs published as shown in FIG. 7. If the trader wishes to purchase the viewed barrel-unit NFT, the trader performs a purchase process for the barrel-unit NFT on the blockchain marketplace. When a published barrel-unit NFT is purchased on the blockchain marketplace, the device 10 obtains transaction information for the barrel-unit NFT from the blockchain marketplace, and updates the owner information of the barrel-unit NFT on the blockchain network from the alcoholic beverage provider to the trader based on the transaction information.

[0072] Furthermore, if the trader selects 10 years of aging storage as the storage condition of the sake barrel as option information when purchasing the barrel-unit NFT, the device 10 acquires the option information. The device 10 then generates and outputs instruction information for instructing the transfer of the sake product corresponding to the purchased barrel-unit NFT to a warehouse for aging storage. As described above, the output may be from the administrator of the device 10 or the producer (brewery) of the sake product. The administrator or brewery then ships the sake product to a storage facility based on the instruction information and stores it at the storage facility. The owner or manager of the storage facility may be the same as or different from the administrator or brewery of the device 10, but it is preferable that the facility be managed by the administrator of the device 10. The device 10 also acquires management information on the storage condition of the sake product from the refrigerated warehouse and outputs it so that it can be viewed on the blockchain marketplace. The management information includes, for example, the identification number (token ID) of the barrel-unit NFT, storage location, shipping deadline, warehousing date, and delivery status.

[0073] When the trader trades the barrel-unit NFTs he or she owns through the device 10, the trader accesses the device 10 using his or her terminal 50 and inputs listing information for the blockchain marketplace. The market unit 13 of the device 10, for example, publishes the listing information on the blockchain marketplace. This allows the trader to trade the barrel-unit NFTs he or she owns through the device 10.

[0074] When the trader needs to deliver a sake barrel linked to a barrel-unit NFT that he or she owns, the trader accesses the device 10 using his or her terminal 50 and inputs information regarding the delivery of a sake product as the optional information. Upon acquiring the optional information regarding the delivery, the device 10 generates delivery instructions based on the optional information and outputs the delivery instructions to a terminal of an administrator who manages the storage facility. The administrator of the storage facility performs shipping processing for the sake barrel corresponding to the barrel-unit NFT based on the delivery instructions. This allows the trader to deliver the sake barrel product linked to the barrel-unit NFT that he or she owns.

[0075] In addition, if the trader inputs refill information (specifying refilling into bottle units as an option) when purchasing the barrel-unit NFT, the device 10 acquires the refill information. The device 10 generates and outputs refill instruction information based on the refill information, and specifies the number of product units to be refilled from the refill information, and assigns product unit identification information that can identify each of the specified quantities of product units. Then, the device 10 issues a bottle-unit NFT (product unit token information) that corresponds 1:1 to the product unit identification information, and assigns it to the owner of the barrel-unit NFT. Then, the device 10 publishes the registered bottle-unit NFT in a blockchain marketplace through the market unit 13. The published bottle-unit NFT can be searched, for example, by a function of the marketplace, and is displayed in a list by a user's search operation. The search is not particularly limited, and examples include keyword search, price search, tag search, etc. In addition, the marketplace may have, for example, a tag search function, a sorting function, a filter function, etc. Furthermore, the marketplace may have a function of tallying and displaying the number of views and likes for each bottle-unit NFT, for example. The marketplace may further have a function of displaying a ranking of bottle-unit NFTs based on the trading performance of the bottle-unit NFTs (volume, price, price fluctuation range, number of views, number of likes, etc.). In this case, the tallying for displaying the rankings may be performed for each condition, such as the type of blockchain, place of production, and trading period.

[0076] A trader who wishes to purchase sake via the device 10 can access the blockchain marketplace published by the device 10 using his / her own terminal 50 and view the published bottle-per-unit NFTs. If the trader wishes to purchase the viewed bottle-per-unit NFT, the trader performs a purchase process for the bottle-per-unit NFT on the blockchain marketplace. When the published bottle-per-unit NFT is purchased on the blockchain marketplace, the device 10 obtains transaction information for the bottle-per-unit NFT from the blockchain marketplace, and updates the owner information of the bottle-per-unit NFT on the blockchain network from the owner of the barrel-per-unit NFT to a new trader based on the transaction information.

[0077] Furthermore, when the trader selects 10 years of aging storage as the storage condition of the sake barrel as option information when purchasing the bottle-unit NFT, the device 10 acquires the option information. The device 10 then generates and outputs instruction information for instructing the transfer of the purchased bottle-unit NFT and the corresponding sake product to a warehouse for aging storage. As described above, the output may be the administrator of the device 10 or the producer (brewery) of the sake product. The administrator or brewery then ships the sake product to a storage facility based on the instruction information and stores it at the storage facility. The owner or manager of the storage facility may be the same as or different from the administrator or brewery of the device 10, but it is preferable that the storage facility is a facility managed by the administrator of the device 10. The device 10 also acquires management information on the storage condition of the sake product from the refrigerated warehouse and outputs it so that it can be viewed on the blockchain marketplace. The management information includes, for example, the bottle-unit NFT identification number (token ID), storage location, shipping deadline, date of receipt, and delivery status.

[0078] When the trader trades the bottle-unit NFTs he or she owns through the device 10, the trader accesses the device 10 through his or her terminal 50 and inputs listing information for the blockchain marketplace. The market unit 13 of the device 10, for example, publishes the listing information on the blockchain marketplace. This allows the trader to trade the bottle-unit NFTs he or she owns through the device 10.

[0079] When the trader needs to deliver sake linked to a bottle-per-unit NFT that he or she owns, the trader accesses the device 10 using his or her terminal 50 and inputs information regarding the delivery of the sake product as the optional information. Upon acquiring the optional information regarding the delivery, the device 10 generates delivery instructions based on the optional information and outputs the delivery instructions to a terminal of an administrator who manages the storage facility. The administrator of the storage facility performs shipping processing for the sake barrel corresponding to the bottle-per-unit NFT based on the delivery instructions. This allows the trader to deliver the sake product linked to the bottle-per-unit NFT that he or she owns.
