Digital Currency Payment System with Automatic Balance Monitoring
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The existing digital currency payment systems for contents viewing lack a method to continuously facilitate consumption, leading to user inconvenience and reduced engagement, as users need to repeatedly perform electronic payments for digital currency purchases.
Innovation Solution
A digital currency payment method and system that automatically initiates an electronic payment process based on preset conditions, allowing continuous consumption by monitoring payment events and adjusting the digital currency amount according to the completion frequency of electronic payment processes, thereby providing rewards and enhancing user convenience.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If users manually perform electronic payments for digital currency purchases, then payment control is maintained, but user convenience deteriorates and continuous consumption is hindered
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary actions by monitoring payment events and automatically initiating electronic payment processes before users need to manually intervene. The controller detects when digital currency balance falls below preset thresholds and proactively starts payment processes, eliminating the need for users to remember to recharge their accounts.
Solution Approach 2:
The system enables self-service by allowing users to preset payment conditions and thresholds, after which the system autonomously manages payment processes. Users configure their preferences once, and the system automatically executes payments based on monitored balance levels, reducing repeated manual operations.
2Duration of action of stationary object
If automatic payment initiation is implemented, then continuous consumption is enabled, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The controller performs multiple functions: monitoring digital currency balance, comparing against preset thresholds, initiating electronic payment processes, and tracking payment completion. By consolidating these diverse functions into a single controller, the system achieves continuous consumption capability without proportionally increasing overall system complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements feedback mechanisms by continuously monitoring payment event occurrences and payment completion frequencies. The controller receives feedback about balance levels and payment status, then adjusts its behavior accordingly - initiating payments when thresholds are met and updating the system based on whether payments complete successfully.
3Productivity
If payment monitoring and automatic initiation are implemented, then user engagement is enhanced, but processing time and energy consumption increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system employs periodic action by monitoring payment events at specific intervals rather than continuously. The controller checks for payment events occurring based on preset conditions (such as when balance reaches certain thresholds) and initiates payments periodically when needed, rather than maintaining constant active processing, thus reducing energy consumption while maintaining productivity.

AI summary
A digital currency payment method for performing a payment related to digital currency used in contents viewing includes monitoring occurrence of a payment event related to a preset payment condition for purchase of the digital currency, in relation to a user account; starting an electronic payment process for purchase of the digital currency with respect to the user account when the payment event has occurred at the user account as a monitoring result; and supplying the digital currency to the user account when the purchase of the digital currency has been completed through the electronic payment process.
