Distributed ledger tracking of event data
Techniques including data collection, organization and usage are provided, including in connection with computer-based gaming. Methods and systems are provided for establishing a set of data chronicling at least a portion of a duration of a computer-based gaming event that includes at least one user engaging in gaming using a computer or a computer-based device. Event data is obtained for chronicling chronologically ordered in-game events. Hardware and software related data is obtained that relates to the computer or the computer-based device and is relevant to the chronicling of the portion of the gaming event. Utilizing a distributed ledger technology or blockchain, the event data and the hardware and software related data are recorded in establishing the set of data chronicling at least a portion of the duration of the gaming event.
1 . A computer-based certification system comprising:
at least one non-transitory computer-readable memory storing software instructions and a notarized ledger; and
at least one processor coupled with the at least one memory and that performs the following operations upon execution of the software instructions:
obtaining a digital data set related to a fact determination within event data; notarizing the digital data set as certified data based on predefined criteria related to the fact determination;
creating a notarized block from the certified data; and
linking the notarized block into the notarized ledger.
2 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the notarized block includes the certified data.
3 . The system of claim 2 , wherein the notarized block is stored on the notarized ledger.
4 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the certified data is stored separately from the notarized ledger.
5 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the notarized block comprises a genesis block of the notarized ledger.
6 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the notarized block comprises a terminal block of the notarized ledger.
7 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the predefined criteria is a priori stored in the at least one memory.
8 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the predefined criteria represents a standards criteria.
9 . The system of claim 8 , wherein the standards criteria comprises criteria from a standards entity.
10 . The system of claim 8 , wherein the standards criteria comprises criteria from a notarization body.
11 . The system of claim 8 , wherein the standards criteria comprises criteria from a registrar.
12 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the digital data set comprises artificial intelligence data.
13 . The system of claim 12 , wherein the artificial intelligence data comprise a trained model.
14 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the digital data set includes at least one of computer hardware data or computer software data.
15 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the digital data set comprises event metrics.
16 . The system of claim 15 , wherein the operations further include triggering the operation of notarizing the digital data set based on the metric.
17 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the digital data set comprises gaming data.
18 . The system of claim 17 , wherein the gaming data comprises electronic sports (eSports) data or casino data.
19 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the at least one memory comprises a Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) 140 compliant memory.
20 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the FIPS 140 compliant memory comprises a FIPS 140-2 level 2 compliant memory.
21 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the notarized ledger comprises at least one of the following types of ledger data structures: a hashgraph, a directed acyclic graph, a centralized blockchain, a semi-centralized blockchain, a distributed blockchain, a linked list, or a local blockchain.
22 . A method for computer-based certification, the method comprising:
obtaining, by at least one processor, a digital data set related to a fact determination within event data;
notarizing, by the at least one processor, the digital data set as certified data based on predefined criteria related to the fact determination;
creating, by the at least one processor, a notarized block from the certified data; and
linking, by the at least one processor, the notarized block into a notarized ledger.
23 . A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing software instructions and a notarized ledger thereon which, when executed, cause at least one processor to perform operations comprising:
obtaining, by at least one processor, a digital data set related to a fact determination within event data;
notarizing, by the at least one processor, the digital data set as certified data based on predefined criteria related to the fact determination;
creating, by the at least one processor, a notarized block from the certified data; and
linking, by the at least one processor, the notarized block into the notarized ledger.
