Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Distributed ledger technologies (DLTs) face challenges in cohesive sharing, synchronization, and data integrity due to unique protocols and design considerations, leading to data inconsistencies and limitations in interoperation between different DLT networks, such as double spending and data inconsistencies.
Innovation Solution
The implementation of an interoperability node that acts as an intermediary between DLT networks, utilizing a DLT object synchronizer to format and synchronize data across different DLT platforms, ensuring data consistency and integrity through active state object synchronization, and maintaining trust agreements between networks.

Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If distributed ledger networks use unique protocols and design considerations for each network, then each network can maintain its own data integrity and security standards, but this prevents cohesive sharing, synchronization, and transferring of information between different distributed ledger networks
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements an interoperability node that acts as an intermediary between different distributed ledger networks. This node includes a DLT object synchronizer that receives requests from exchange nodes, selects appropriate target instances, formats data according to target network protocols, and performs synchronization. The intermediary translates between different protocols while maintaining data integrity through format compliance and synchronization validation.
Solution Approach 2:
The system dynamically changes data format parameters based on the target distributed ledger network's requirements. The DLT object synchronizer formats origin data to comply with target DLT network specifications, adjusting parameters such as data structure, encoding, and protocol compliance without altering the underlying data integrity. This enables the same data to be successfully synchronized across networks with different technical specifications.
2Productivity
If data is synchronized between different DLT networks without proper coordination, then information sharing between networks is enabled, but data inconsistencies and double spending issues occur
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary actions before synchronization by establishing trust agreements between distributed ledger networks in advance. The interoperability node maintains these trust agreements and uses them to validate synchronization requests. This preliminary setup ensures that when data synchronization occurs, the networks are already configured to recognize and trust each other's data formats and protocols, preventing inconsistencies and double spending.
Solution Approach 2:
The DLT object synchronizer implements feedback mechanisms by receiving synchronization requests, validating them against trust agreements, selecting appropriate target instances, and formatting data according to target network requirements. The system continuously monitors synchronization status and adjusts formatting based on feedback from the target network's acceptance criteria, ensuring data consistency is maintained throughout the synchronization process.

AI summary
Systems and methods for active state synchronization between distributed ledger technology (DLT) platforms are provided. A system may store an origin blockchain compliant with an origin DLT. The system may further store a target blockchain compliant with a target DLT. The target DLT may be different from the origin DLT. The system may include a DLT object synchronizer with access to the origin blockchain and the target blockchain. The DLT object synchronizer may receive, from an exchange node, a request to synchronize an origin instance of a DLT object between the origin blockchain and the target blockchain. The DLT object synchronizer may select a target instance of the DLT object on the target blockchain. The DLT object synchronizer may format origin data from the origin instance for compliance with the target DLT. The DLT object synchronizer may synchronize the origin instance and the target instance.
