Systems and methods for real-time recording of transfers of self-validating digital records across cryptographically secure networks using cross-network registries
Systems and methods for novel uses and/or improvements to blockchains and blockchain technology. As one example, systems and methods are described herein for self-validating digital records that may be transferred in real-time through a cross-network registry. For example, in a conventional system, minting a token (e.g., a digital record) involves writing a self-executing program that defines the transfer rules of the digital record. Once the self-executing program is written, it is deployed on a blockchain, and the digital record is minted by publishing it to a blockchain.
