Abstract
Techniques include storing state information of a set of virtual container units (VCUs), associated digital tokens and current states. The techniques further include presenting an augmented reality (AR) virtual object dispenser in an AR session containing at least a subset of the set of VCUs. In response to receiving a user interaction, the techniques further include updating the state information of a VCU to a second state and recording the updated state information on a ledger. The techniques further include associating the VCU with a user account, wherein at least one digital token associated with the VCU remains unrevealed. The techniques further include enabling a transaction involving the VCU in the second state prior to revealing the at least one digital token. The techniques further include maintaining provenance information of the VCU on the ledger, the provenance information including the current state and at least a portion of transaction history.
