Patent attributes
Systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media configured to facilitate execution of transactions via a money transfer network are disclosed. During execution of the transactions, tokenized identity information may be utilized when exchanging transaction data between geographically distributed nodes of the money transfer network and the transactions are recorded to a distributed ledger maintained by the nodes. Smart contracts may be utilized to digitally sign transactions at various stages of transaction processing, such as at different stages of regulatory compliance validation and to authenticate the validity of the requested transaction (e.g., prevent double-spends). Utilizing tokenized identity information may reduce the likelihood that personally identifiable information (PII data) is obtained by or inadvertently provided to unauthorized third parties or systems. Additionally, the distributed ledger may record information in immutable records, thereby increasing the reliability and trustworthiness (e.g., for auditing purposes) of the data stored on the distributed ledger.
