Secure matchmaking, asset transfer, and usability reconfiguration platform
Systems and methods for authorization reconfiguration for digital asset usability are described. An asset management system identifies an asset associated with a video game. A first user device is authorized to use the asset. The first user device is associated with a first user. The asset management system identifies a second user, for instance through a shared characteristic with the first user. A second user device associated with the second user lacks authorization to use the asset. The asset management system receives an indication of a transfer of usability of the asset, such as an indication that the second user has paid for the transfer, or that the conditions of a smart contract have been met. In response to receiving the indication, the asset management system automatically disables authorization for the first user device to use the asset and enables authorization for the second user device to use the asset.
