Omnibus Address Generation and Autoconversion of Cryptocurrency - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240265376 titled 'Omnibus Address Generation and Autoconversion of Cryptocurrency
The abstract of the patent application discusses a computing platform that can prefetch pay-to addresses associated with an omnibus account before receiving a purchase request. When a client requests a purchase from a merchant, the platform associates the client and the merchant with one of the prefetched pay-to addresses. The platform then monitors the pay-to address for receipt of a predefined amount of cryptocurrency associated with the purchase. Upon detecting the receipt of the cryptocurrency, the platform transfers funds from the omnibus account to the merchant's account.
