BLOCKCHAIN-BASED MULTI-APPLICATION COMMUNICATION PLATFORM

Abstract:

Systems, methods, and computer media for blockchain-based communication between applications are provided herein. Using a blockchain-based multi-application communication platform, different applications can create and interact with trusted records. A trusted record represents something quantified and/or tracked through an application. Trusted records are stored in a blockchain. Trusted records can be created by one application and accessed by other applications through the platform. Interactions of the different applications with a trusted record are also stored in the blockchain. The immutability of information stored in the blockchain ensures that the trusted records can in fact be trusted, ensures that interactions with trusted records are memorialized, and removes uncertainty as to which application's records are correct.
