A computer system comprises a logic system, and, operatively coupled to the logic system, a computer-memory system holding instructions that, when executed by the logic system, cause the computer system to: receive a token-behavior selection corresponding to a real-world asset to be tracked on a virtual ledger; receive a virtual-ledger architecture selection identifying a provider-defined architecture of the virtual ledger; construct a template for registration of a token class on the virtual ledger according to the provider-defined architecture of the virtual ledger, wherein each new token instantiated from the token class exhibits a set of behaviors determined by the token-behavior selection; and provide access to the template to a client computer device.

Reusable template for asset token

Techniques for implementing a ledger-independent token service are provided. According to one set of embodiments, a computer system executing the service can receive, from a user, a request to create a token on a distributed ledger network. The computer system can further provide to the user one or more token templates, where each token template corresponds to a type of physical or digital asset and defines a set of one or more attributes and one or more control functions associated with the type. The computer system can then receive, from the user, a selection of a token template in the one or more token templates and create the token on the distributed ledger network, where the created token includes the set of one or more attributes and one or more control functions defined in the selected token template.
