What changed

Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. has received a published patent application from the USPTO for a distributed ledger protection architecture using proof of integrity validation (Application US20260093799A1, Application No. 19412205, filed December 8, 2025, published April 2, 2026). The system receives exchange requests from DLT network nodes containing digital asset amounts, content items, and destination identifiers; validates these against a protection model; authorizes exchanges via consensus mechanisms; and generates new blockchain blocks with appended protection parameters while transmitting exchange notifications across DLT networks.

Patent application publications do not impose immediate compliance obligations on third parties. Companies developing blockchain, distributed ledger, or digital asset exchange technologies in financial services may wish to review this application as potential prior art or to assess potential licensing considerations.

Abstract

Systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media for restricting exchanges using a proof of integrity model. One system includes memory and at least one processing circuit configured to receive, from a node on a first DLT network, an exchange request, the exchange request includes an amount of a digital asset to exchange, a content item, and a destination identifier. The at least one processing circuit is further configured to generate an exchange record and validate the exchange record in the amount of the digital asset based on a protection model. The at least one processing circuit is further configured to authorize, based on a consensus model, the exchange corresponding with the validated exchange record including the appended protection parameter. The at least one processing circuit is further configured to generate a new blockchain block on the first DLT network and transmit, to a second DLT network, an exchange notification.
