Patent attributes
An example transaction-enabled system may include a smart contract wrapper to access a distributed ledger comprising intellectual property (IP) licensing terms corresponding to IP assets, wherein the IP licensing terms include an apportionment of royalties among owning entities in the distributed ledger. The smart contract wrapper may interpret an IP description value and an IP addition request, and, in response to the IP addition request and the IP description value, to add the apportionment of royalties corresponding to the IP description value. At least one of the plurality of IP assets comprises an instruction set and an operation on the distributed ledger provides provable access to the instruction set. A royalty apportionment wrapper apportions royalties from at least one royalty generating element to owning entities in response to the IP licensing terms.
