Rebate Assets, LLC

A method includes a computing entity issuing to an asset authenticity computing entity a request to select and authenticate a digital record that represents an available public benefit credit asset based on a digital record representing a hypothetical public benefit credit asset to produce a selected public benefit credit asset. The method further includes determining that authenticity information associated with the selected public benefit credit asset indicates that the selected public benefit credit asset matches the hypothetical public benefit credit asset. The method further includes generating a smart contract to indicate availability of the selected public benefit credit asset and obtaining a copy of an object distributed ledger. The method further includes causing inclusion of a next block on the object distributed ledger that includes the smart contract to represent the selected public benefit credit asset.

Symmetric storage using a cloud-based storage system, including: receiving, at a cloud-based storage system among storage systems synchronously replicating a dataset, an I/O operation directed to the dataset; determining, in dependence upon the I/O operation, a metadata update describing a mapping of segments of content to an address within a storage object, wherein the storage object includes the dataset; and synchronizing metadata on another storage system of the storage systems by sending the metadata update from the cloud-based storage system to the other storage system to update a metadata representation on the second storage system in accordance with the metadata update.

A method includes a computing entity issuing a request to select and authenticate a digital record that represents a secure first token representing utilization of a contingent asset to securely establish a contingent asset solution for a first pending transaction associated with a transaction item. The method further includes generating a contingent asset digital record representing the contingent asset that includes applicability information associated with justification for selection of a particular contingent asset. The method further includes determining that the particular contingent asset provides the contingent asset solution and generating a smart contract to facilitate completion of the first pending transaction. The method further includes inclusion of the smart contract on an object distributed ledger to represent the contingent asset solution.

A method executed by a computing entity includes establishing a set of required cryptography-authenticated public benefit asset information for subsequent selection of a set of public benefit credit assets based on a request to identify the set of public benefit credit assets. The method further includes identifying a secure first token representing the set of public benefit credit assets based on the set of required cryptography-authenticated public benefit asset information. The method further includes establishing control over the secure first token representing the set of public benefit credit assets on an object distributed ledger where only a device possessing control over the secure first token may modify the secure first token.

A method includes a computing entity issuing to an asset authenticity computing entity a request to select and authenticate a digital record that represents an available contingent asset based on a digital record representing a hypothetical contingent asset to produce a selected contingent asset. The method further includes determining that authenticity information associated with the selected contingent asset indicates that the selected contingent asset matches the hypothetical contingent asset. The method further includes, when approved, generating a smart contract to indicate availability of the selected contingent asset and obtaining a copy of an object distributed ledger. The method further includes causing inclusion of a next block on the object distributed ledger that includes the smart contract to represent the selected contingent asset.

A method includes an object owner computing entity issuing a digital record representing a contingent asset to a marketplace computing entity that identifies an asset authenticity computing entity. The method further includes the asset authenticity computing entity generating authenticity information associated with the contingent asset and the marketplace computing entity determining that an authenticity indicator is the same as a lifecycle status indictor of the digital record. The method further includes the marketplace computing entity generating a smart contract to indicate availability of the contingent asset to include available terms and the authenticity indicator and obtaining a portion of a copy of an object distributed ledger. The method further includes the marketplace computing entity causing inclusion of a next block on the object distributed ledger that includes the smart contract to represent the contingent asset.

A method executed by a computing entity includes establishing a set of cryptography-authenticated public benefit asset information for a selected set of public benefit credit assets of a set of candidate public benefit credit assets to generate the selected set of public benefit credit assets. The method further includes generating a secure first token representing the selected set of public benefit credit assets based on the set of cryptography-authenticated public benefit asset information. The method further includes establishing, using control over the secure first token representing the selected set of public benefit credit assets on an object distributed ledger where only a device possessing control over the secure first token may modify the secure first token.
