(ii) a respective fiat-backed digital asset amount for each respective fiat-backed digital asset holder, wherein the fiat-backed digital assets are issued by a fiat-backed digital asset issuer;

(c) obtaining, via the contract address, by a trusted entity system associated with a trusted entity, and using a first application program interface, a first sum of fiat-backed digital assets, wherein the first sum of fiat backed digital assets are backed by a plurality of assets comprising at least a second amount of a first fiat maintained by a custodian;

(d) accessing, by the trusted entity system, using the first application program interface, the digital asset security token database to determine:

(i) each respective digital asset address of the first set of digital asset addresses for each respective digital asset security token holder; and

(ii) the respective digital asset security token amount associated with each respective digital asset address;

(e) determining a respective payment amount in fiat-backed digital assets to be made to each respective digital asset address of the first set of digital asset addresses based at least in part on a fixed notional amount, the first sum of fiat-backed digital assets and, the respective digital asset security token amount associated with each respective digital asset address of the first set of digital asset addresses, the fixed notional amount being based at least in part on a notional pegged rate including a fixed proportional value associated with the fiat-backed digital asset and the first fiat;

(f) generating, by the trusted entity system operably connected as a node of a decentralized digital asset network including a peer-to-peer network, transaction instructions including computer code configured to cause the trusted entity system to initiate a transfer of the respective payment amount of fiat-backed digital assets to each respective digital asset address of the first set of digital asset addresses from the digital asset security token issuer account to the security token holder accounts, wherein generating the transaction instructions includes generating code configured to be utilized by other nodes of the decentralized digital asset network to facilitate the transfer of the fiat-backed digital assets;

(g) publishing, by the trusted entity system to the peer-to-peer network, the transaction instructions, the publishing causing the respective payment amount of fiat-backed digital assets to be credited to each respective digital asset address of the first set of digital asset addresses where ownership of each digital asset security token remains the same;

(h) publishing, by the trusted entity system to a side ledger, the transaction instructions associated with crediting the respective payment amount of fiat-backed digital assets to each respective digital asset address of the first set of digital asset addresses and the publishing step (q) including publishing the transaction instructions from the side ledger to the distributed asset ledger periodically or aperiodically, wherein the digital asset security token database is maintained on a sidechain, separate from the peer-to-peer network, wherein information on the sidechain is published and stored on the peer-to-peer network periodically or aperiodically;

(i) confirming, by the trusted entity system, receipt of the respective amount of fiat-backed digital assets and continued ownership of each respective digital asset security token at each digital asset address of the first set of the digital asset addresses and updating the distributed transaction ledger automatically as maintained on the other nodes of the decentralized digital asset network; and

(j) notifying, by the trusted entity system, each digital asset address of the first set of the digital asset addresses of each respective transfer of fiat-backed digital assets to each respective digital asset address of the first set of digital asset addresses.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the peer-to-peer network is an Ethereum network.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the peer-to-peer network is a Bitcoin network.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the notifying step (i) is performed using the first application program interface.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the peer-to-peer network is a Stellar network.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the trusted entity is a regulated digital asset exchange.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the digital asset security token is a security registered with a government authority.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the digital asset security token is a debt security and the electronic payments are interest.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the digital asset security token is an equity security and the electronic payments are dividends.

10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the digital asset security token is secured by intellectual property rights and the electronic payments are royalties.

11. The method of claim 1 , wherein the peer-to-peer network is based on a mathematical protocol for proof of work.

12. The method of claim 11 , wherein the mathematical protocol is open source.

13. The method of claim 1 , wherein the peer-to-peer network is based on a mathematical protocol for proof of stake.

14. The method of claim 13 , wherein the mathematical protocol is open source.

15. The method of claim 1 , wherein the peer-to-peer network is based on a cryptographic mathematical protocol.

16. The method of claim 1 , further comprising steps of:

receiving, at the digital asset security token issuer system, from at least one digital asset security token holder, a payment request prior to the obtaining step (c), the payment request including:

(i) the digital asset address of the digital asset security token holder; and

(ii) a request to transfer a payment amount of fiat-backed digital assets to the digital asset address of the digital asset security token holder; and

confirming, at the digital asset security token issuer system, that:

(i) the digital asset address of the digital asset security token holder is valid;

(ii) the digital asset security token amount of digital asset security tokens associated with the address of the digital asset security token holder is more than zero; and

(iii) the digital asset token security holder is entitled to payment.

17. The method of claim 1 , wherein the digital asset security token database is maintained and stored on the plurality of geographically distributed computer systems in the peer-to-peer network.

18. The method of claim 1 , wherein the generating step (f) includes generating, by the trusted entity system, transaction instructions for the first sum of fiat-backed digital assets by updating the fiat-backed digital asset database to reserve fiat-backed digital assets in the amount of the first sum.

19. The method of claim 1 , wherein the payment amount relates to a dividend to be paid based on ownership of each digital asset security token.

20. The method of claim 1 , wherein the payment amount relates to a royalty to be paid based on ownership of each digital asset security token.
