A computer that provides one or more verified personas for a distributed token (such as a non-fungible token or NFT) of a first user is described. Notably, the computer may provide the one or more verified personas for the first user that are based at least in part on their account(s) with a provider of a secure, virtual private network (SVPN) of the first user. Consequently, the identity of the first user may be known to the provider. However, the one or more verified personas may obfuscate the known identity of the first user when conducting one or more discrete secure transactions (such as a transaction associated with a cryptocurrency or the NFT) using or associated with the distributed token. In particular, the first user may associate or link the one or more verified personas with the distributed token, thereby providing the benefits of privacy and selective (as-needed) identification.

Verified anonymous persona for a distributed token

A computer that provides a secure, virtual personalized network (SVPN) with one or more preconfigured digital wallets for a first user in the SVPN is described. Notably, the computer may execute a virtual machine that provides a container for the SVPN of the first user, and the first electronic device associated with the first user may execute an instance of an application that facilitates secure communication in the SVPN and/or conducting of one or more distributed secure transactions (such as a transaction associated with a cryptocurrency or a non-fungible token or NFT) via the SVPN. Moreover, the virtual machine may provide a container for the SVPN of the first user. This container may include the one or more preconfigured digital wallets associated with the first user, where a given preconfigured digital wallet includes cryptographic keys and a distributed ledger for use in conducting the one or more distributed secure transactions.

Secure virtual personalized network with preconfigured wallets

A computer provides a secure, virtual personalized network (SVPN) for a first user with master privileges and at least a second user with guest privileges in the SVPN. Notably, the computer may execute a virtual machine that provides a container for the SVPN of the first user, and the first electronic device associated with the first user and a second electronic device associated with the second user may execute instances of an application that facilitates secure communication in the SVPN. Moreover, the first electronic device may store a set of first encryption keys and the second electronic device may store a set of second encryption keys, which allow the first electronic device and the second electronic device to securely communicate with each other via the SVPN. Note that the computer may not be able to access the set of first encryption keys or the set of second encryption keys.

Secure virtual personalized network

An electronic device in a device-to-device network of a user of the electronic device communicates with a group of one or more other instances of the electronic via dynamic connections that are based on pre-established and maintained (i.e., long-lived) associations in the device-to-device network. Moreover, a given dynamic connection between the electronic device and a given instance of the electronic device in the group is setup by the electronic device without assistance of a computer in another network, which conveys the communication within the group. During operation, the electronic device: detects a change to a location of the electronic device in the other network; and communicates a message with the update to the location to a second user in the device-to-device network who is associated with a second instance of the electronic device in the group at a second location specified by one of the associations.

Device-to-device network location updates

An electronic device in a device-to-device network of a user of the electronic device communicates with a group of one or more other instances of the electronic via dynamic connections that are based on pre-established and maintained (i.e., long-lived) associations in the device-to-device network. Moreover, a given dynamic connection between the electronic device and a given instance of the electronic device in the group is setup by the electronic device without assistance of a computer in another network, which conveys the communication within the group. During operation, the electronic device: confirms that a second instance of the electronic device in the group (which is associated with a second user in the device-to-device network) is associated with a provider of the electronic device; and when the association is confirmed, communicates a message to the second instance of the electronic device at a location specified by one of the associations.
