Abstract
A cryptocurrency acceptance network computing device includes a processing module operable to obtain a request to facilitate a cryptocurrency-based payment between a payor computing device and a payee computing device. The payor computing device uses a first cryptocurrency recognized by a first cryptocurrency exchange computing device, and the payee computing device accepts a desired currency recognized by a second cryptocurrency exchange computing device. The processing module is operable to place a hold on an amount of collateral cryptocurrency, determine whether the first cryptocurrency exchange computing device recognizes the desired currency or whether the second cryptocurrency exchange computing device recognizes the first cryptocurrency, and if either is not recognized, the processing module connects to the first cryptocurrency exchange computing device to exchange the first cryptocurrency to a universally accepted cryptocurrency, connects to the second cryptocurrency exchange computing device to exchange the universally accepted cryptocurrency to the desired currency.
