Digital Asset Exchange Identity Verification and Security
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing digital asset exchanges face security breaches, money-laundering risks, and inefficiencies due to inadequate user identity verification and anti-money laundering protocols, as well as challenges in authenticating real-world identities and managing digital math-based assets like bitcoins.
Innovation Solution
A digital asset exchange system that provides user identity verification, anti-money laundering verification, and secure storage for both fiat and digital math-based assets, utilizing a decentralized electronic ledger system and multi-factor authentication to facilitate secure transactions and conversions between digital assets and fiat currencies.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If user identity verification and anti-money laundering protocols are implemented, then security is improved, but transaction efficiency deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs identity verification, authentication, and compliance checks during account creation and before transactions are executed. By completing these security procedures in advance rather than during transaction processing, the system maintains both high security standards and efficient transaction execution.
Solution Approach 2:
The verification process is divided into separate stages: account creation verification, transaction authorization checks, and ongoing compliance monitoring. This segmentation allows security protocols to be applied at appropriate points without blocking the entire transaction flow, maintaining efficiency while ensuring reliability.
2Reliability
If decentralized electronic ledger system is used for secure storage, then reliability is improved, but device complexity worsens
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a centralized exchange platform as an intermediary that manages the decentralized ledger system. The exchange handles key generation, secure storage, and transaction coordination, shielding users from the complexity of blockchain technology while maintaining the security and reliability benefits of decentralized storage.
Solution Approach 2:
The system maintains copies of transaction records both in the decentralized electronic ledger and in centralized databases managed by the exchange. This redundancy ensures data integrity and security while simplifying access and management through the centralized interface.
