Patent attributes
The disclosed embodiments include a computer-implemented method for performing a token escrow swap on a network of nodes. The method includes placing buy/sell orders through a broker-dealer node and sending signed buy/sell order transactions with cryptocurrency wallets to the token escrow swap node. The method further includes performing a buy-order filling operation by requesting a transfer of currency tokens to the token escrow swap node and receiving the currency tokens via the buyer node. For each sell order, security tokens are transferred to the token escrow swap node via the seller node. The security tokens are sent from the token escrow swap node. For each sell order, the currency tokens are sent to the seller node. The method includes an analogous operation to fill a sell order.
