Abstract

Systems and methods for facilitating transfer of ownership of tokens between users on a decentralized database stores a registry of assets and transactions are disclosed. Exemplary implementations may: store, on electronic storage, a set of code executable by the decentralized database to manifest individual tokens on the decentralized database; and record the set of code on the decentralized database such that the set of code is accessible at a creator address that is associated with the creator of the set of code. Using the functions defined by the set of code, an owner of an individual token can offer to sell the individual token, and a buyer can accept this offer to buy the individual token, at an agreed-upon price.
