Abstract: |
Methods, systems, and techniques for performing blockchain-enabled atomic settlement. A first instruction, which includes a first leg specifying a first counterparty and a second counterparty that are counterparties to a first transaction and an amount of a first asset owned by the first counterparty, is obtained. The first instruction is confirmed to be authorized; this involves locking the first asset without transferring the first asset in response to obtaining that confirmation. The first instruction is executed after the first instruction is confirmed to be authorized. Executing the first instruction involves transferring the first asset from the first counterparty to the second counterparty. That the first instruction has been executed is recorded in a blockchain. |
