INTENDED TRANSFER OF FUNDS IN A METAVERSE SYSTEM
Examples described herein include conducting secure financial transactions in the metaverse using digital avatars. This is done by creating a payment avatar in the metaverse by inculcating a transaction's intent and displaying transaction packet data on one or more virtual billboards in a transaction route. The payment avatar can travel from the sender to the receiver's location on the metaverse platform and capture the transaction packet data from the one or more billboards using the one or more decryption keys. In this manner, funds can be securely transferred in the metaverse by preventing unauthorized access to the transaction packet data.
1 . A method of conducting a financial transaction in a metaverse platform, comprising:
receiving a request from a customer to conduct the financial transaction in the metaverse platform;
creating a transaction packet including details of the financial transaction contained in the request;
determining a transaction route in the metaverse platform from a sender avatar representing the customer to a receiver avatar representing a receiver of the financial transaction;
displaying the details of the financial transaction in the transaction packet in encrypted format on one or more digital billboards along the transaction route;
creating a payment avatar including one or more decryption keys for decrypting the details of the financial transaction in the transaction packet displayed on the one or more digital billboards;
enabling the payment avatar to travel along the transaction route to retrieve the details of the financial transaction in the transaction packet displayed on the one or more digital billboards using the one or more decryption keys; and
causing the payment avatar to execute the financial transaction upon arriving at the receiver avatar.
2 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising dividing the transaction packet into a plurality of transaction packet portions.
3 . The method of claim 2 , wherein displaying the details of the financial transaction in the transaction packet in encrypted format on the one or more digital billboards includes displaying each of the plurality of transaction packet portions on a separate billboard of the one or more digital billboards.
4 . The method of claim 3 , wherein a different decryption key of the one or more decryption keys is used to obtain each of the plurality of transaction packet portions on each of the separate billboards.
5 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the transaction route is determined using an artificial intelligence machine learning model.
6 . The method of claim 1 , wherein creating the payment avatar includes creating the payment avatar in a partially-structured format and the payment avatar obtains additional structure at each of the one or more digital billboards such that the payment avatar is a complete structure upon arriving at the receiver avatar.
7 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the details contained in the request include customer data relating to the customer and receiver data relating to the receiver.
8 . The method of claim 7 , further comprising determining an intent of the financial transaction based on the receiver data.
9 . The method of claim 8 , wherein the intent of the financial transaction is embedded in the payment avatar.
10 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
identifying suspicious activity along the transaction route; and
modifying the transaction route in response to identifying the suspicious activity.
11 . A system for conducting a financial transaction in a metaverse platform, comprising:
an input-capturing module configured to receive a request from a customer to conduct the financial transaction in the metaverse platform, the input-capturing module configured to create a transaction packet including details of the financial transaction contained in the request;
a route determination module configured to determine a transaction route in the metaverse platform from a sender avatar representing the customer to a receiver avatar representing a receiver of the financial transaction, the route determination module further displaying the details of the financial transaction in the transaction packet in encrypted format on one or more digital billboards along the transaction route;
an avatar creation module configured to create a payment avatar including one or more decryption keys for decrypting the details of the financial transaction in the transaction packet displayed on the one or more digital billboards; and
a transaction module configured to enable the payment avatar to travel along the transaction route to retrieve the details of the financial transaction in the transaction packet displayed on the one or more digital billboards using the one or more decryption keys, the transaction module further configured to cause the payment avatar to execute the financial transaction upon arriving at the receiver avatar.
12 . The system of claim 11 , wherein the route determination module is further configured to divide the transaction packet into a plurality of transaction packet portions.
13 . The system of claim 12 , wherein the route determination module is further configured to display each of the plurality of transaction packet portions on a separate billboard of the one or more digital billboards.
14 . The system of claim 13 , wherein the transaction module is configured to use a different decryption key of the one or more decryption keys to obtain each of the plurality of transaction packet portions on each of the separate billboards.
15 . The system of claim 11 , wherein the route determination module is configured to determine the transaction route using an artificial intelligence machine learning model.
16 . The system of claim 11 , wherein the avatar creation module is configured to create the payment avatar in a partially-structured format and the payment avatar is configured to obtain additional structure at each of the one or more digital billboards such that the payment avatar is a complete structure upon arriving at the receiver avatar.
17 . The system of claim 11 , wherein the details contained in the request include customer data relating to the customer and receiver data relating to the receiver.
18 . The system of claim 17 , wherein the input-capturing module is further configured to determine an intent of the financial transaction based on the receiver data.
19 . The system of claim 18 , wherein the avatar creation module is configured to embed the intent of the financial transaction in the payment avatar.
20 . The system of claim 11 , wherein the transaction module is further configured to identify suspicious activity along the transaction route and the route determination module is configured to modify the transaction route in response to identifying the suspicious activity.
