PROGRESSIVE SYSTEMS ON A DISTRIBUTED LEDGER - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240331499 titled 'PROGRESSIVE SYSTEMS ON A DISTRIBUTED LEDGER

The abstract describes a blockchain system that offers progressive jackpots within a network of electronic devices, specifically electronic gaming machines (EGMs).

  • The EGM stores a local blockchain and a system blockchain.
  • It identifies transactions for the first progressive jackpot account, which are deposit transactions from other electronic gaming devices adding value to the jackpot within the local blockchain.
  • The EGM calculates the total sum amount of these transactions and creates a blockchain transaction for the first progressive jackpot account, including the total sum amount.
  • This transaction is then transmitted to other electronic gaming devices for addition to the system blockchain.

Potential Applications: - Online casinos - Gaming tournaments - Lottery systems

Problems Solved: - Ensuring transparency and security in jackpot systems - Facilitating cross-device jackpot accumulation

Benefits: - Increased trust among players - Enhanced scalability for jackpot prizes

Commercial Applications: "Blockchain-Based Progressive Jackpot System for Online Casinos and Gaming Tournaments"

Questions about the technology: 1. How does this blockchain system ensure the fairness of jackpot payouts? 2. What measures are in place to prevent fraudulent activities within the system?
