Abstract
Systems and methods for private settlement of distributed ledger transactions are disclosed. In one embodiment, in an information processing device for a node for a first party in a computer network comprising at least one computer processor, a method for transferring assets with transaction privacy using a distributed ledger may include: (1) receiving, from the first party, a transaction to transfer ownership of one or more first z-tokens to a second party in exchange for second z-tokens; (2) receiving, from the second party, acceptance of the transaction; (3) committing the transaction to a distributed ledger; and (4) executing the transaction and updating a state to update a number of first z-tokens and a number of second z-tokens for the first party and the second party based on the transaction.
