Solution Overview

Problem

Existing non-fungible token (NFT) systems lack dynamic functionality and secure interoperability across gaming environments and social media platforms, leading to limitations in interaction and promotion of game-related materials, and are susceptible to fake news distribution and arbitrary, non-portable recognition badges.

Innovation Solution

Implementing blockchain-based NFT platforms that enable secure, dynamic NFTs with access rights and reputation scores, allowing transfer and interaction across environments, and enabling semi-permanent storage on decentralized networks.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If traditional NFT systems are used, then implementation is simple, but dynamic functionality and secure interoperability are lacking

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedynamic functionalityVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the NFT system into distinct functional modules: state capture mechanisms, token generation components, access right management systems, and reputation scoring modules. Each module operates independently but integrates through standardized interfaces, enabling dynamic functionality while maintaining manageable system complexity through modular architecture.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements dynamic NFTs where token properties, access rights, and metadata can change over time based on captured state data. The system transitions from static NFTs to dynamic entities that can update their characteristics, enable/disable access rights, and modify their state through programmable logic and external triggers.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

2Reliability

If decentralized storage is implemented, then security and interoperability improve, but system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesecure interoperabilityVSAvoiddecentralized system complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent creates a universal decentralized storage interface that works across multiple blockchain networks and distributed storage systems. The token generation and state capture mechanisms are designed to be network-agnostic, allowing the same NFT to function securely across different decentralized environments without requiring network-specific implementations.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces intermediary components including smart contracts and protocol layers that mediate between the NFT system and underlying decentralized storage infrastructure. These intermediaries abstract the complexity of decentralized storage operations, providing standardized APIs and transaction protocols that simplify integration while maintaining security and reliability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

3Reliability

If access rights are dynamically managed, then content security improves, but operational complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecontent securityVSAvoidaccess management complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements self-service access management where NFTs automatically enforce their own access rights based on embedded policies and captured state. The system uses programmable logic within the tokens to automatically grant, revoke, or modify access permissions without requiring manual intervention, reducing operational complexity while maintaining strong security controls through automated policy enforcement.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

4Measurement precision

If reputation scoring is implemented, then fake news detection improves, but computational requirements increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvefake news detection accuracyVSAvoidcomputational energy
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSUse of energy by moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements partial reputation scoring where not all NFT transactions or content require full computational verification. The system uses selective validation, applying reputation checks only to high-risk operations or content types, while using lighter verification methods for routine transactions. This reduces overall computational energy requirements while maintaining detection accuracy for critical fake news identification.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #16Partial or excessive action

AI summary

In various embodiments a device can be configured to implement a distributed ledger capable of immutably recording state data to tokens. In an embodiment a device includes a network interface, memory, and a processor. The processor can be configured to obtain a token including an access policy. The access policy can include a set of access rights. The processor can be further configured to render the token description, receive a user input, and initiate an action based on the token description and the user input. The action can include accessing the content using the access policy. The processor can be further configured to generate a transaction record, and to broadcast the transaction record, the transaction record configured to be incorporated into a ledger entry. The ledger entry capable of being used to compute a challenge for securely adding the ledger entry to a distributed ledger using a cryptographic system.
