Abstract

A method includes determining, by a digital asset-based interaction computing entity, to dynamically update a digital asset balance of a digital asset-based interaction interface of a computing entity storing a first digital asset. When the first digital asset is not recognized for use within a second jurisdiction, the method further includes determining a first digital asset to universal digital asset exchange rate, determining a universal digital asset to second asset exchange rate, determining a first digital asset to second asset exchange rate and the digital asset balance in terms of the second asset, and providing one or more of the: first digital asset to universal digital asset exchange rate, digital asset balance in terms of the universal digital, universal digital asset to second asset exchange rate, first digital asset to second asset exchange rate, and digital asset balance in terms of the second asset to the computing entity.
