Solution Overview

Problem

Distributed networks face volatility due to deterministic supply rules and unpredictable demand, which hinders the adoption of resources like cryptocurrencies as a medium of exchange.

Innovation Solution

A computing device in a distributed network checks the median value of a transactional resource relative to an external resource, adjusting the supply by comparing it to a threshold value, using a decentralized database that associates public keys with communication addresses and employs a fixed supply of one resource to stabilize an elastic supply of another through auctions and reserve exchanges.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Stability of the object's composition

If deterministic supply rules are used to govern resource distribution, then resource allocation is predictable and controllable, but resource value becomes volatile due to unpredictable demand

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveresource value stabilityVSAvoidsupply adaptability to demand
Core Design Contradiction:
Stability of the object's compositionVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements dynamic supply adjustment by transitioning from fixed deterministic supply rules to an elastic supply model. The resource supply is continuously adjusted based on real-time demand signals and price thresholds, allowing the system to adapt to changing market conditions while maintaining value stability through automated buy/sell operations at predefined threshold levels

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The system employs feedback mechanisms by monitoring resource price and demand levels continuously. When the resource price reaches predetermined threshold values, the system automatically triggers supply adjustment actions (buying or selling resources), creating a closed-loop control system that stabilizes resource value by responding to market conditions feedback

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

2Reliability

If elastic supply adjustment is implemented to match unpredictable demand, then resource value stability improves, but system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveresource as medium of exchangeVSAvoidsupply adjustment mechanism
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements self-service through automated smart contracts that autonomously manage resource supply adjustment. The system automatically monitors price thresholds and executes buy/sell operations without requiring manual intervention, reducing operational complexity while maintaining reliable value stabilization. The decentralized autonomous nature of the system eliminates the need for centralized control mechanisms

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The system manages complexity by focusing adjustments on key parameters (price thresholds and supply levels) rather than controlling all market variables. By changing only the critical parameters of resource supply based on price threshold breaches, the system achieves value stability with minimal operational complexity, leveraging the deterministic behavior of threshold-based control

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

AI summary

Systems and techniques are provided for a resource stabilization in a distributed network. A computing device in a distributed network may check the median value of a transactional resource in relation to a specified external resource. The computing device in the distributed network may compare the median value of the transactional resource to a threshold value for the transactional resource to determine whether the median value of the transactional resource is above the threshold value or below the threshold value. The supply of the transactional resource in the distributed network may be increased in response to determining that the transactional resource is above the threshold value or may be in response to determining that the transactional resource is below the threshold value.
