(Circumstances leading to the invention of one aspect of the present invention)

Conventional technology 1 is a technology in which a portion of the sponsorship fee, which the sponsor pays to an agent as compensation for sending sponsor-provided information to the user, is used as a resource and is distributed to the user. Specifically, in prior art 1, points are awarded to viewing users who view sponsored information, and the device according to prior art 1 receives viewing confirmation information for sponsored information from a registered user's device. This technology assumes that the sponsored information has been viewed when the user does so, and awards points to the user.

However, in Prior Art 1, the distribution fee payment process is executed only when it is determined that the user has viewed the sponsor-provided information, and there is room for improvement as a method of paying distribution fees to registered users. , the inventor of the present invention has discovered.

For example, in services using the Web and application software, such as Prior Art 1, in order for a user to receive the service, the user must provide a certain amount of personal information to the operator of the service. Since a user's personal information is mainly used to identify each user and provide appropriate services to each user, providing personal information also has an aspect of benefiting the user.

On the other hand, the provision of personal information benefits service providers, as the personal information provided by each user indicates the direction in which to improve the service and allows the value of sub-services included in the service to be measured. There are also aspects. In other words, it can be said that at least a portion of the business sales generated by the service provider based on the provision of the service is attributable to the personal information provided by each user.

Conventional technology 2 is a technology for transmitting remuneration information based on the degree of disclosure of personal information. The degree of disclosure of personal information in Prior Art 2 is the ratio of disclosure to the total personal information that is requested to be disclosed. That is, in Prior Art 2, remuneration is determined based on the number or percentage of items in which personal information is set.

In this regard, since Prior Art 2 only focuses on the number or proportion of user items in the whole, it is difficult to provide rewards according to the substantial value of set personal information, for example. There are cases.

For example, when a first user and a second user set personal information, the personal information set by the second user has higher content value than the personal information set by the first user. Also, when the number of items by the first user is greater than the number of items by the second user, more rewards will be given to the first user. The value of the content is, for example, the degree of contribution of information provision to the service operator's business.

Furthermore, although prior art 2 determines remuneration based on information received by the information processing device, there is room for improvement in the system architecture from the viewpoint of reliability of the system that handles remuneration information of monetary profits. there were.

The inventor of the present invention has provided an information processing method and method for managing remuneration information according to the set personal information using a distributed ledger when a user sets personal information for one or more user items.

The outline of the services provided by the information processing method and information processing system in the present disclosure has been described above.

In addition, the information processing system 1 realizes, when a user sets personal information for one or more user items, managing remuneration information according to the content of the set personal information using a distributed ledger. The configuration of the information processing system 1 is not limited to the system configuration shown in FIG. 1.

3 to 5 are block diagrams showing other examples of the functional configuration of the information processing system according to the first embodiment of the present invention.

As shown in FIG. 3, in the information processing system 1b, the server device 10 has a function of broadcasting to the P2P network 300b, and does not need to be included in the P2P network 300b. Further, as shown in FIG. 4, in the information processing system 1c, the first terminal device 200a may be included in the P2P network 300c, and the server device 10 may not be included in the P2P network 300c. Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 5, all of the server device 10 and the plurality of terminal devices 200 may be included in the P2P network 300d.

That is, as shown in FIG. 1 and FIGS. 3 to 5, the information processing system 1 includes a plurality of terminal devices 200 and a server device 10, and at least some of the plurality of terminal devices 200 and server devices 10 A system in which a P2P network 300 is constituted by terminal devices, and reward information of monetary profits is managed by a plurality of distributed ledgers using a blockchain that are held in at least two or more devices among the plurality of devices constituting the P2P network 300. It may be. Among the devices constituting the P2P network 300, only some of the devices may hold the distributed ledger, or all the devices may hold the distributed ledger. The plurality of devices configuring the P2P network 300 may be the plurality of terminal devices 200 or the plurality of terminal devices 200 and the server device 10. Each of the plurality of devices making up the P2P network 300 may hold one or more distributed ledgers.

FIG. 6 is a sequence diagram illustrating an example of a procedure for transmitting and receiving information and processing information between the server device 10 and the terminal device 200 according to the first embodiment of the present invention.

The transmission and reception of information performed between the server device 10 and the plurality of terminal devices 200, and the information processing performed in each part of the server device 10 and the plurality of terminal devices 200 will be described below with reference to FIG. 6 and the like. do.

Note that the sequence diagram shown in FIG. 6 is applied to each of the information processing systems 1 shown in FIGS. 1 and 3 to 5. In the following description, displaying predetermined information on the display medium 201 by various programs transmitted from the server device 10 to the terminal device 200 and then stored in the storage unit 204 means that the server device 10 It may be synonymous with directly or indirectly controlling the display of predetermined information.

That is, control by various programs provided from server device 10 to terminal device 200 and control by server device 10 may be referred to as control by server device 10 or the like. Even if it is simply referred to as control by the server device 10, it may be interchangeable with control by the server device 10 or the like.

In FIG. 6, the first terminal device 200a operated by the user can set personal information for at least one user item out of one or more total user items, for example, in response to an operation using the input unit 202. A setting page that allows the user to perform the following may be displayed on the display medium 201 provided in the first terminal device 200a (step S601).

For example, when a user requests personal information settings using the input section 202 on a website related to this service, the server device 10 uses the information of one or more of all user items stored in the storage device 103. Then, the setting page may be displayed on the display medium 201a provided in the first terminal device 200a.

Specifically, for example, in response to the request received from the first terminal device 200a, the server device 10 transmits information for displaying one or more all user items stored in the storage device 103 on the display medium 201a. It may also be transmitted to the first terminal device 200a.

The one or more all user items stored in the storage device 103 may be, for example, all the user items displayed on the personal information setting page, and may not be all the user items stored in the storage device 103. good. The all-user item may be an item in which personal information can be set on the setting page. In this case, the settings page may include user items for which corresponding personal information is already displayed and cannot be set. All user items may be referred to as configurable user items, for example. The item name of each of all user items may be, for example, the user's work history, name, age, etc. Note that the specific specifications of the information or data for displaying one or more of all user items on the display medium 201 can be realized using known technology, and therefore detailed description will be omitted.

Note that a request for setting personal information is a request sent from the communication unit 203 to the communication unit when the user performs a specified operation to set personal information using the input unit 202 on a specified page on a website related to this service. It may also be a control signal sent to 101.

For example, when application software related to this service is installed on the first terminal device 200a, when a predetermined operation using the input unit 201 is performed, one or more The settings page may be displayed on the display medium 201 by starting the application software based on information on all user items and various programs.

Specifically, for example, when image information indicating application software related to this service displayed on the display medium 201 of the first terminal device 200a, which is a smartphone, is selected by a tap operation using the input unit 202, etc. In response, the application software may be activated and a setting page may be displayed on the display medium 201a. Note that one or more page transitions may be included between when the application software is started and when the settings page is displayed.

Note that in the following description, a website or application software related to this service may be referred to as a website related to this service, etc.

Note that the setting page may mean a range that can be displayed by scrolling on a website related to this service. Further, the settings page may include multiple pages.

FIG. 7 is a diagram showing an example of an image showing a settings page where personal information can be set for all user items according to the first embodiment. As shown in FIG. 7, the first terminal device 200a may display a setting page 700 on the display medium 201 based on information received from the server device 10, for example. Further, the first terminal device 200a may display the setting page 700 on the display medium 201, for example, by activating the installed application software related to this service.

The setting page 700 may include, for example, a plurality of user items 70, an area 71 for setting personal information for each user item, and a setting completion button 73 for completing setting of personal information for the area 71.

In addition, in FIG. 7, the user item 70 is functionally illustrated as "user item (1)," but when this service is actually provided, the notation of user item (1) will be, for example, , "work history", "age", "qualification", "name", etc. Further, the number of user items included in the settings page 700 shown in FIG. 7 is an example, and the number of items may be set arbitrarily, and does not limit the scope of the present disclosure. Further, the display mode of the area 71 in FIG. 7 is an example, and the specific mode does not limit the scope of the present disclosure. Since the information processing for displaying the setting page 700 on the display medium 201 is well known, detailed description thereof will be omitted.

Returning to FIG. 6, when the settings page is displayed on the display medium 201a, the first terminal device 200a sets personal information for one or more user items out of all user items in accordance with a predetermined operation. This may be detected (step S602).

For example, the first terminal device 200a may detect that personal information has been set on the settings page 700 shown in FIG. 7. In this case, the settings of personal information set by the user may be displayed on the settings page 700. For example, when the user uses the input unit 202 to set personal information for user item (1) 70a and user item (2) 70b, as shown in FIG. Contents 72 may be displayed.

Note that in the present disclosure, the setting content of personal information may be, for example, information set by the input unit 202 and displayed on the setting page 700. In the present disclosure, the content of personal information may be information related to setting content, amount of information, number of items, and other personal information described below. That is, the content of personal information may be a concept including the setting content of personal information.

Moreover, when simply written as personal information, it may mean at least one of the content of personal information and the setting content of personal information. The personal information may be read as either the content of the personal information or the setting content of the personal information.

Note that the area 71 may be, for example, an area where the user can arbitrarily write personal information using the input unit 202. Further, the area 71 may be, for example, an area where the user can use the input unit 202 to select personal information from a plurality of predetermined texts using a pull-down menu, a check box, or the like. That is, setting personal information may include writing and selecting personal information. The personal information setting method for each area 71 may be the same or different.

For example, if the area 71a is an area where personal information can be arbitrarily written, and the user item (1) 70a is "work history," the area 71a may contain information such as "transformed from software engineer to manager." Personal information may be set. In such a case, if the area 71b is an area for selecting personal information from a pull-down menu, etc., and the user item (2) 70b is "age", the area 71b may contain information such as "30s", etc. Personal information may be set as follows.

Note that in the case where the area 71 is an area for selecting personal information from a pull-down menu, when one or more options are set from a plurality of options, the user presses the input section 202 for the text that is the option. The contents of the option may be editable by arbitrarily writing it using the option. Furthermore, as will be described later, it may be possible to arbitrarily write personal information and post image information in the area 71.

Note that in FIG. 7, the region 71 is shown by a solid line for convenience of explanation, but this is not limited to this. The display mode of the area 71 is arbitrary and does not limit the scope of the present disclosure.

In addition, in FIG. 7, a case has been described in which personal information is set for user item (1) 70a and user item (2) 70b among all user items, but in this disclosure, one or more users Personal information may be set for each item, for example, personal information may be set for one or more user items including the first user item.

One or more user items may include both the meaning of at least one user item and the meaning of one or more predetermined number of user items. In other words, the case where personal information is set for one or more user items on the settings page 700 means that personal information is set for at least one arbitrary number of user items among all user items. This may include a case where personal information is set for one or more predetermined number of user items among all user items.

Specifically, for example, the condition under which a monetary benefit is granted to a user in return for setting personal information, which will be described later, is that personal information is provided for at least one arbitrary number of user items among all user items. If it is set, the first user item may be one of an arbitrary number of user items. On the other hand, for example, the condition for giving a monetary benefit to a user as compensation for setting personal information is that personal information is set for one or more predetermined number of user items out of all user items. In this case, the first user item may be one of a predetermined number of one or more.

Note that the predetermined number of one or more may be arbitrarily set by the provider of this service. The one or more predetermined number of user items may include user items specified by the provider of the service.

Note that in the above description regarding steps S601 and S602 in FIG. 6, the setting page 700 includes a plurality of user items 70, areas 71, etc., and allows personal information to be set for each of all user items. Although it was explained as such, it is not limited to that. For example, the settings page 700 may be a page for requesting the acquisition of personal information corresponding to each user item in cooperation with an external system that holds the user's personal information. The settings page 700 in such a case will hereinafter be referred to as a settings page 700b (not shown) for convenience of explanation. In the present disclosure, the settings page 700 may include a settings page 700a and a settings page 700b.

Specifically, for example, if the settings page 700b on the website or application software related to this service includes a predetermined button for acquiring personal information from an external system, the predetermined button is pressed by the input unit 202. When an operation of selecting or tapping, or an operation of inputting audio with predetermined content, is performed, the first terminal device 200a may acquire personal information corresponding to each user item from an external system.

The content of the predetermined button and the content of the voice input may be, for example, "request to obtain personal information" or simply "request to provide service."

Note that the setting page 700b does not need to include the plurality of user items 70, the area 71, and the like. Cooperation with the external system may be performed, for example, based on the user ID of the user, and personal information of the user may be acquired by mutually referencing the user ID with the external system. The cooperation with the external system may be, for example, API (Application Programming Interface) cooperation. Cooperation with an external system may be realized, for example, by activating application software installed on the terminal device 200 for managing the user's personal information.

Note that the personal information corresponding to each user item acquired from the external system may be viewable by the user on the setting page 700b or a predetermined confirmation page. The user may be able to edit the personal information displayed on the display medium 201 and obtained through external cooperation using the input unit 202.

As described above, the predetermined operation on the setting page may be an operation for setting personal information for a user item using the input unit 202 provided in the first terminal device 200a. Specifically, for example, the operation may be an operation for setting personal information for each user item, or an operation for requesting to obtain personal information from an external system.

Returning to FIG. 6, the first terminal device 200a may transmit the contents of the set personal information associated with the first user ID to the server device 10 (step S603).

Specifically, for example, when personal information is set in area 71 on setting page 700, when it is detected that setting completion button 73 is selected or tapped using input unit 202, area 71 The setting contents of the personal information set in the above may be determined, and the determined information may be transmitted to the server device 10.

In such a case, the first terminal device 200a may associate the personal information set on the display medium 201 with a first user ID unique to the user and transmit the associated information to the server device 10. For example, when personal information is set on application software related to this service, user ID information input at the time of starting the application software or at a predetermined timing after starting is stored in the server device 10 along with the set personal information. May be sent.

Note that, for example, when personal information is set on a website related to this service, the first user ID may be associated with the set personal information at the first terminal device 200a, or , may be performed in the server device 10. For example, as described above, the first terminal device 200a may associate the set personal information with the first user ID and transmit it to the server device 10. Further, for example, when receiving a request for personal information setting, the server device 10 detects the first user ID associated with the request, and selects the personal information set on the setting page associated with the first user ID. When receiving information, the received personal information may be treated as personal information associated with the first user ID.

That is, the personal information associated with the first user ID may be the personal information associated with the first user ID in the first terminal device 200a, or the personal information associated with the first user ID in the server device 10. It may also be personal information attached.

Note that the notation of the setting completion button 73 in FIG. 7 is just an example, and the name of the button may be, for example, "Send", or may be left blank. The display mode of the setting completion button 73 does not limit the scope of the present disclosure.

In addition, in the description of FIG. 7, for example, the selection of the setting completion button 73 was described as a trigger for transmitting the set personal information to the server device 10, but this is not the case. For example, when personal information is set in the area 71 and a predetermined condition is met, the set personal information may be transmitted to the server device 10.

The predetermined condition may be, for example, that a predetermined period of time elapses without editing the set information after personal information is set. Further, the predetermined condition may be that a predetermined voice input such as "send" or "setting complete" is performed. In this case, the setting completion button 73 may not be displayed. The trigger for transmitting the set personal information from the terminal device 200 to the server device 10 can be arbitrarily set, and does not limit the scope of the present disclosure.

Returning to FIG. 6, when receiving the contents of the set personal information associated with the first user ID, the server device 10 transmits the first transaction data including the contents of the set personal information and the first user ID. It may be generated (step S604).

For example, the first transaction data may include a first user ID and set personal information. The first transaction data may include the first user ID, data including the set personal information, and further include an electronic signature. The electronic signature may be, for example, information obtained by encrypting a hash value of the first transaction data using a private key stored in the storage device 103. In such a case, as described below, the broadcasted first transaction data may be decrypted and verified using a public key stored in the storage unit 204 of the terminal device 200 that received the first transaction data.

Note that when the server device 10 receives the content of personal information associated with the first user ID from the first terminal device 200a, the server device 10 associates the first user ID with the content of the personal information and stores it in the storage device 103. It may be memorized.

FIG. 8 is a diagram illustrating an example of first table information that associates a user ID with the content of personal information set for each user item according to the first embodiment. As shown in FIG. 8, the contents of personal information set for each of one or more user items may be associated with each user ID and stored in the storage device 103. Note that the management specification of information that associates the user ID with the content of personal information set for each user item can be arbitrarily set, and does not limit the scope of the present disclosure.

Returning to FIG. 6, the server device 10 may broadcast the generated first transaction data to the P2P network 300 (step S605).

Specifically, for example, the server device 10 may transmit the first transaction data to a plurality of terminal devices 200 corresponding to adjacent nodes in the P2P network 300. In such a case, each of the plurality of terminal devices 200 that has received the first transaction further transmits the first transaction data to all nodes included in the P2P network 300 by repeating the relay of transmitting the first transaction data to the adjacent node. Transaction data may be propagated. Note that the broadcast method in the P2P network 300 is an example. Furthermore, since the technology related to broadcasting is well known, a detailed description thereof will be omitted.

Note that the first transaction data broadcast from the server device 10 may be received by the second terminal device 200b that holds the distributed ledger, and a first block containing the first transaction data may be generated, as will be described later. For example, the broadcasted first transaction may be verified at the third terminal device 200c before being used to update the distributed ledger at the second terminal device 200b.

That is, when the third terminal device 200c receives the first transaction data broadcast from the server device 10, the third terminal device 200c verifies the first transaction data based on the predetermined criteria stored in the storage unit 204 provided in the third terminal device 200c. and when a predetermined criterion is met, the second terminal device 200b broadcasts the verified first transaction data to the P2P network 300, and the second terminal device 200b generates a first block based on the verified first transaction data. Good too.

FIG. 9 is a flow diagram illustrating an example of a verification process for transaction data. Hereinafter, with reference to FIG. 9, an example of a processing procedure in which the third terminal device 200c verifies transaction data will be described.

Note that the flowchart described below merely illustrates steps necessary for explaining the processing procedure of the operation of the terminal device 200 according to the present disclosure. This does not preclude steps related to processing other operations from being appropriately inserted between each step of each flowchart as long as the functions of the embodiments of the present invention are achieved. The description of the flow diagrams above may be applied to the flow diagrams described below.

In FIG. 9, the third terminal device 200c may determine whether transaction data has been received (step S901). When the third terminal device 200c does not receive transaction data (step S901: NO), it may wait until the transaction data is received.

On the other hand, when the third terminal device 200c receives the first transaction data broadcast from the server device 10 (step S901: YES), the third terminal device 200c performs a Verification of the first transaction data may be performed (step S902).

Specifically, for example, the third terminal device 200c decrypts the first transaction data using the public key stored in the storage unit 204, thereby determining whether the electronic signature is valid or not. Verification of the first transaction data may be performed based on.

Note that the content of the verification of the first transaction data is not limited to determining the validity of the electronic signature, and may be, for example, verification of the transaction format, the amount of GasLimit of the transaction, etc., or a combination thereof. The specific content of the verification of the first transaction data does not limit the scope of the present disclosure.

Note that the predetermined standard information used for verification may be received from another terminal device 200 that holds a distributed ledger, or may be included in a distributed ledger received from the server device 10 or another terminal device 200. Good too.

Returning to FIG. 9, the third terminal device 200c determines whether a predetermined criterion is satisfied (step S903), and when the predetermined condition is satisfied (step S903: YES), the third terminal device 200c performs verification. The first transaction data may be broadcast to the P2P network 300 (step S904).

For example, when it is determined that the electronic signature included in the first transaction data is valid as a result of verification, the third terminal device 200c transfers the verified first transaction data to a node corresponding to an adjacent node in the P2P network 300. The information may be transmitted to multiple terminal devices 200.

In such a case, each of the plurality of terminal devices 200 that has received the verified first transaction is further included in the P2P network 300 by repeating the relay of transmitting the verified first transaction data to the adjacent node. The verified first transaction data may be propagated to all nodes. The second terminal device 200b may then generate the first block based on the verified first transaction data. In such a case, when the plurality of terminal devices 200 including the second terminal device 200b receive the verified first transaction data, after verifying the first transaction data at their own terminals, the terminal devices 200 transmit the data to the adjacent node. You can also broadcast it.

Note that when the third terminal device 200c broadcasts the verified first transaction data, the third terminal device 200c may store the verified first transaction data in the storage unit 204 of its own terminal.

On the other hand, in FIG. 9, when it is determined that the predetermined criterion is not satisfied (step S903: NO), the first transaction data received by the third terminal device 200c is discarded by the third terminal device 200c, and the P2P network 300 (Step S905).

An example of the processing procedure in which the third terminal device 200c verifies transaction data has been described above with reference to FIG.

In the above description, the terminal that verifies the first transaction data is the third terminal device 200c that is different from the second terminal device 200b that generates the first block, which will be described later, but this is not the case. That is, the second terminal device 200b that generates the first block, which will be described later, verifies the first transaction data, stores the verified first transaction data in the storage unit 204, and broadcasts it to the P2P network 300. , the first block may be further generated based on the verified first transaction data.

Returning to FIG. 6, when the second terminal device 200b holding the first distributed ledger receives the first transaction data, it may generate a first block including the first transaction data (step S606).

In such a case, the second terminal device 200b may store one or more transaction data including the first transaction data broadcasted to the P2P network 300 in the storage unit 204, or may store it in a memory pool. good. In such a case, the second terminal device 200b is included in the P2P network 300 and performs calculation competition using, for example, proof of work with another terminal device 200 that holds a distributed ledger. , or the terminal device that first discovered proof of work.

Note that the consensus model regarding block generation is not limited to proof of work, and may be, for example, proof of stake, and the scope of the present disclosure is not limited by its specific content.

FIG. 10 is a diagram for explaining an example of the data structure of each block according to the first embodiment. The distributed ledger stored in the storage unit 204 of the second terminal device 200b may be, for example, a blockchain, and a blockchain is a chain in which blocks each having one or more transaction data and a hash value of the immediately preceding block are connected. They may be connected in a straight line. Specifically, for example, as shown in FIG. 10, the first block generated by the second terminal device 200b includes the hash value of the immediately previous block and one or more transaction data including the first transaction data. May include.

In such a case, calculation competition based on proof of work involves converting one or more transaction data including the hash value of the immediately previous block and the first transaction data, and further data including an arbitrary character string into a hash value, Information processing may be performed to find an arbitrary character string in which a predetermined number of digits included in a value corresponds to a specific character.

Note that, when the second terminal device 200b finds, for example, an arbitrary character string that becomes the specific character as a result of the proof-of-work computation competition, the second terminal device 200b generates a first block and performs a one-time calculation for the first block. Alternatively, multiple transaction routes may be stored.

Note that since the specific calculation process such as the above-mentioned proof of work and the data structure of each block in the blockchain are well-known techniques, a detailed explanation will be omitted.

Returning to FIG. 6, the second terminal device 200b uses the contents of the set personal information included in the first block based on a predetermined program that specifies financial benefits according to the contents of the personal information to the first user. The first block may be updated by calculating remuneration information of monetary benefits to be provided in association with the ID (step S607).

For example, when the second terminal device 200b generates the first block, the second terminal device 200b generates one block included in the first block based on a predetermined program that specifies financial profit according to the content of the personal information stored in the storage unit 204. Alternatively, remuneration information of monetary profits may be calculated according to the content of personal information included in each of a plurality of transaction data. In addition, calculation of remuneration information of monetary profit using the contents of the set personal information based on a predetermined program is, specifically, calculation of remuneration information of monetary profit using the contents of the set personal information. It may also be calculation of profit remuneration information.

The above-mentioned predetermined program may be, for example, a program that uses a predetermined database that associates the contents of personal information with financial profits to specify financial profits according to the contents of personal information. The predetermined database may be, for example, a relational database that manages the relationship between the contents of personal information and information on financial benefits specified accordingly using a predetermined table.

The predetermined database may be a relational database or a non-relational database (No only SQL). The NoSQL database may be, for example, an object-oriented database, an XML database, a key-value store, or a hierarchical database. Note that the structure or model of the database may be arbitrarily set by the operator of this service, and its specific contents do not limit the scope of the present disclosure.

Moreover, the above-mentioned predetermined program may be a smart contract that specifies financial benefits based on the contents of personal information.

The monetary benefit depending on the content of the personal information may be, for example, a monetary benefit as compensation for setting the personal information. Monetary benefits in return for setting personal information mean, for example, that there is a commercial benefit such as a direction for improving this service based on the user's personal information, or that there is a financial benefit in return for setting personal information, or that In view of the fact that the value of this service increases as the number of personal information increases, it may be provided to users who have provided their personal information using funds such as sales of businesses related to the service.

The source of funds is not limited to business sales, but may also be business profits, predetermined profits, etc. The specific content of the funds may be arbitrarily determined by the provider of this service, and does not limit the scope of this disclosure. In the following description, sales may be read as operating profit or predetermined revenue.

In addition, financial gain as consideration for setting personal information means, for example, if a person other than the administrator of the server device 10 can view or obtain personal information held in the distributed ledger, and Alternatively, if a predetermined monetary value is provided by the person upon acquisition, the provided monetary value may be used as a source of benefits to be provided to the user who has registered personal information.

Specifically, for example, if a user registers job change information or employment information as personal information, and a corporate user views the personal information registered by one or more users for the purpose of utilizing it for business, the corporate user may A predetermined monetary value may be paid when acquiring the personal information. The predetermined monetary value may be paid, for example, when a corporate user who has acquired personal information performs remittance processing on the server device 10.

Note that the source of monetary benefits provided to users who have registered personal information is not limited to the sales volume of the administrator of this service, or the monetary value paid by users who view personal information. For example, when a corporate user acquires personal information held in a distributed ledger and hires personnel based on the acquired personal information, a predetermined monetary value is provided as a reward for successful recruitment. , the provided monetary value may be included in the capital. Note that the above-mentioned funding is just an example, and the scope of the present disclosure is not limited by its specific content.

Note that the information on the funds may be recorded, for example, in a distributed ledger. Specifically, for example, the content of personal information acquired by a corporate user and information on the monetary value paid by the corporate user when acquiring the content of the personal information are stored in an arbitrary block as a transaction and stored in a distributed ledger. may be held. The block and distributed ledger related to the funds may be managed as the same blockchain as the block and distributed ledger that include the content of personal information, or may be managed as a separate blockchain.

In addition, in the above description, it has been explained that the user who has registered personal information is provided with financial benefits according to the content of the personal information. Certain financial benefits may also be provided to the user or holder.

Note that the monetary benefit may be, for example, something that has monetary value or something that can be exchanged for monetary value. The monetary value may be, for example, money, point information exchangeable for money, stock options, various tokens such as cryptographic assets, etc. Crypto assets may be called digital currency or virtual currency. Various tokens may be cryptocurrencies, exchange tokens for receiving service provision, governance tokens representing voting rights for the management policy of this service, etc. The above monetary value is an example, and its specific content does not limit the scope of the present disclosure. Moreover, various tokens can be issued at predetermined timing, and the monetary value provided in exchange for issuance of various tokens may be included in the capital.

Based on the execution of a predetermined program using the above-mentioned predetermined database or smart contract, the second terminal device 200b uses the first transaction data including the set personal information to be associated with the first user ID. The remuneration information of the monetary benefit provided may also be calculated. In such a case, the content of the personal information that specifies the financial benefit may be, for example, the setting details, the amount of information, the number of items, and the setting completion period.

Hereinafter, a specific example of the content of personal information that allows monetary profits to be identified based on execution of a predetermined program will be described.

First, as a first specific example, the content of personal information used to specify financial profit in the execution of a predetermined program may be, for example, the setting content of personal information.

In other words, if the first user item is included in one or more user items and the content of the personal information that specifies financial interest is the setting content of the personal information, the first setting content for the first user item is is set, a first monetary profit is specified based on a predetermined program, and on the other hand, when a second setting content different from the first setting content is set for the first user item, a first monetary profit is specified based on a predetermined program. A second financial benefit that is different from the first financial benefit may be identified.

Specifically, for example, in the settings page 700 shown in FIG. 7, when the first user item (1) 70a is "occupation", the first setting content 72a of personal information is "technical". When the type of job is, the first monetary benefit is specified based on a predetermined program, and on the other hand, when the second setting content 72a of the personal information is not a technical job type, the second monetary benefit is specified based on the predetermined program. may be done.

The monetary benefit may vary based on the personal information settings for the first user item included as part of the plurality of total user items. The user item that changes the monetary benefit may be one or more user items among all the user items.

In such a case, all the user items stored in the storage device 103 include a first user item whose personal information settings change monetary profits, and a second user item whose personal information settings do not change financial profits. It may contain multiple user items including.

In other words, the one or more user items include a first user item and a second user item, the first user item is a user item whose settings change monetary profits, and the second user item is a user item whose settings change monetary profits. It may be a user item whose content does not change the monetary benefit.

Note that a plurality of predetermined user items whose personal information settings vary monetary profits may be included in a plurality of all user items. In such a case, the plurality of total user items may include one or more first user items and at least one second user item.

The settings of the personal information for the second user item other than the predetermined user item among all the plurality of user items may not contribute to fluctuations in monetary profits. When personal information is set for the second user item (2), a predetermined fixed amount of profit may be included as compensation for setting the personal information, regardless of the personal information setting for the second user item. Alternatively, in such a case, the compensation for setting personal information for the second user item (2) may be zero.

That is, each of the first monetary benefit and the second monetary benefit may include a fixed amount benefit for setting personal information for the second user item.

Note that the information on financial profits specified based on the predetermined program may be viewable using, for example, the first user ID. For example, the information on the financial profit may be viewable on a predetermined page on the application software related to this service installed on the first terminal device 200a. Further, for example, the user may log in to a website related to this service using the first user ID, and be able to view information on the specified financial benefit on a predetermined page on the website.

Note that, for example, when the monetary profit specified based on a predetermined program is money, remittance processing may be executed to a specific account. The timing at which the remittance process is executed may be arbitrarily set by the administrator of this service or based on the governance token described above. The specific account may be a financial institution or digital currency account with which the user has a contract, and may be an account stored in the storage device 103 or the distributed ledger in association with the user ID. Note that the account may be information for accumulating or managing monetary profits, and the specific content does not limit the scope of the present disclosure.

Note that the above explanation regarding the case where monetary benefits are specified according to the settings of personal information may also be applicable to other specific examples below.

Next, as a second specific example, the content of the personal information used to specify financial profit in executing a predetermined program may be, for example, the amount of set personal information.

In other words, if the first user item is included in one or more user items and the content of personal information that specifies financial interest is the amount of personal information, the individual set for the first user item When the information is a first amount of information, a first financial interest is identified based on a predetermined program, and on the other hand, a second amount of information in which the personal information set for the first user item is different from the first amount of information. , a second monetary benefit different from the first monetary benefit may be specified based on a predetermined program.

Specifically, for example, in the setting page 700 shown in FIG. 7, when the amount of personal information set for user item (1) 70a, which is the first user item, is the first amount of information, the predetermined program The first monetary benefit may be specified based on the above, and when the amount of the set personal information is the second amount of information, the second financial benefit may be specified based on a predetermined program. In such a case, as described above, user item (1) 70a may be a predetermined user item, and user item (2) 70b may be a user item other than the predetermined user item.

That is, the one or more user items include a first user item and a second user item, the first user item is a user item whose amount of information fluctuates financial profit, and the second user item is a user item whose amount of information changes monetary profit. It may be a user item whose amount does not change the monetary benefit.

Specifically, for example, user item (1) 70a is a predetermined user item included as part of a plurality of all user items 70, and depending on the amount of personal information set, the above-mentioned financial It may be an item whose profit fluctuates. Further, the user item (2) 70b may be an item other than the predetermined user item among all the plurality of user items 70, and may be an item whose amount of set personal information does not change the monetary profit. .

When personal information is set for the second user item (2) 70b, a predetermined fixed amount of profit will be added as compensation for setting the personal information, regardless of the amount of personal information for the second user item (2) 70b. It's okay. Alternatively, in such a case, the compensation for setting personal information for the second user item (2) 70b may be zero. That is, each of the first monetary benefit and the second monetary benefit may include a fixed amount benefit for setting personal information for the second user item.

Furthermore, the first user item may be a user item that allows at least one of text and images to be set as personal information. For example, if text information is registered as personal information, a first monetary profit is specified, whereas if the text information and image information are registered as personal information, a second monetary profit that is higher than the first monetary profit is specified. Benefits may be specified. The criteria for setting the first monetary benefit and the second monetary benefit are, for example, whether the quantity of characters is greater than or equal to a first predetermined value, whether the quantity of images is greater than or equal to a second predetermined value, or , or a combination thereof.

Note that the first information amount and the second information amount may be determined based on a predetermined threshold value. For example, when the amount of personal information that has been set satisfies a predetermined condition, the first financial interest information is specified, and when the amount of personal information that has been set does not satisfy the predetermined condition, the second financial interest is identified. Benefit information may also be specified. Alternatively, the first amount of information and the second amount of information may be a result of counting a specific amount of information in the above-mentioned predetermined program, and the monetary benefit may be specified. The specific specifications for specifying financial benefits based on the amount of information may be arbitrarily determined and do not limit the scope of the present disclosure.

In this way, by setting the contents of monetary benefits according to the amount of personal information set for user items, users who provide personal information that contributes to identifying individuals will be given a corresponding amount of compensation. We can provide compensation for

Next, as a third specific example, the content of the personal information used to specify financial profit in executing a predetermined program may be, for example, the number of user items in which personal information is set.

In other words, when the content of personal information that specifies financial interest is the number of user items for which personal information is set, and the number of items is the first number of items, the first financial benefit is calculated based on a predetermined program. When a benefit is identified, while the number of items is a second number of items that is different from the first number of items, a second financial benefit that is different from the first financial benefit may be identified based on a predetermined program.

For example, the larger the number of user items in which personal information is set, the larger the monetary benefit provided in association with the user ID may be set. Specifically, for example, as shown in FIG. 7, when personal information is set for user item (1) 70a and user item (2) 70b, the number of user items for which personal information is set is 2, and the information on the first monetary benefit may be specified based on a predetermined program. On the other hand, for example, in FIG. 7, if it is detected that personal information has been further set for user item (3) 70c, the number of user items for which personal information has been set is 3, and the predetermined program is A second monetary benefit that is greater than the first monetary benefit may be identified based on the first monetary benefit.

In this way, the larger the number of user items in which personal information is set, the greater the amount of monetary benefit can be set, so that when users provide more personal information, they receive corresponding compensation. Can be provided.

Next, as a fourth specific example, the content of personal information used to identify financial profits in the execution of a predetermined program may be, for example, even during the setting completion period from a predetermined timing to the timing when personal information is set. good.

In other words, in the case where the content of personal information that specifies financial interest is the setting completion period from a predetermined timing to the first timing when personal information is set for each of one or more user items, the setting completion period is When a predetermined time period condition is met, a first monetary benefit is determined based on the predetermined program, while when the set completion period does not meet the predetermined time period condition, a first monetary benefit is determined based on the predetermined program. 2 Financial interests may be identified.

Specifically, for example, when the server device 10 receives the contents of the personal information set in the first terminal device 200a, the server device 10 combines information at a predetermined timing stored in advance in the storage device 103 and the settings of the personal information. The setting completion period may be specified based on the detected first timing information, and first transaction data including the setting completion period information and the first user ID may be generated.

The predetermined timing is, for example, the timing when the user ID is stored in the storage device 103 according to the user ID registration process by the user, the timing when this service is started to be provided to the user, or the timing when a predetermined campaign in this service starts. It may be a predetermined timing that can be arbitrarily set in advance by the provider or administrator of this service. Note that the specific content of the predetermined timing is an example, and does not limit the scope of the present disclosure.

Although the first timing has been described as the timing at which personal information settings are detected, the detection may be, for example, detection at the server device 10 or detection at the terminal device 200. Good too. In other words, the first timing at which it is detected that personal information has been set for one or more user items may be read as the first timing at which personal information is set for one or more user items. .

Specifically, when the first timing is the timing detected by the server device 10, the first timing may be the timing when the server device 10 receives the personal information set on the display medium 201, and the first timing is the timing when the server device 10 receives the personal information set on the display medium 201. The timing may be the timing at which the unit 102 executes a predetermined detection process, or the timing at which the server device 10 stores the information in the storage device 103. Further, when the first timing is a timing detected by the terminal device 200, the first timing may be a timing when personal information is set on the display medium 201, and the control unit 205 executes a predetermined detection process. The timing may be the timing that the terminal device 200 has stored in the storage unit 204, or the like.

In such a case, when the setting completion period satisfies a predetermined period condition, the information of the first monetary profit is specified based on the predetermined program; on the other hand, when the setting completion period does not satisfy the predetermined period condition, Based on a predetermined program, information on a second monetary benefit that is less than the first monetary benefit may be specified, for example.

Note that the predetermined period condition may be a condition that the setting completion period is less than or equal to the predetermined period, or a condition that the setting completion period is shorter than the predetermined period. The predetermined period may be, for example, a predetermined time, number of days, or number of months, or may be the number of accesses to a website related to this service. Specifically, for example, the predetermined period condition may be such that the setting completion period from the predetermined timing to the first timing is within 60 days, within 3 months, or the number of accesses is within 5 times.

As a result, it is possible to encourage the user to acquire personal information early starting from a predetermined timing such as the start of provision of this service to the user, so that information that can contribute to the improvement of this service can be acquired at an early stage.

In addition, when monetary profit is specified according to the setting completion period from a predetermined timing to the first timing when personal information is set, all user items stored in the storage device 103 are A plurality of user items may be included, including a first user item that changes monetary profits and a second user item whose personal information settings do not change financial profits.

Above, a specific example of the content of personal information that allows monetary profits to be identified based on execution of a predetermined program has been described.

As described above, the first block may be updated by calculating financial profit information using the personal information included in the first block based on a predetermined program. In other words, updating the first block means that reward information of monetary profit is calculated according to the content of each personal information included in one or more transaction data included in the first block. Good too. Note that the information processing for calculating the monetary profit reward information may be referred to as block execution.

Returning to FIG. 6, the second terminal device 200b may add the updated first block to the first distributed ledger (step S608). Specifically, for example, the updated first block may be added to the blockchain in the first distributed ledger as the latest block.

Returning to FIG. 6, the second terminal device 200b may broadcast the block to the P2P network 300 (step S609). Note that in FIG. 6, the processing order of step S608 and step S609 may be reversed. That is, the second terminal device 200b may add the updated first block to the first distributed ledger after or simultaneously with broadcasting the block to the P2P network 300.

For example, the second terminal device 200b further broadcasts the first block to the P2P network 300, and the fourth terminal device 200d, which has received the first block, updates the first block based on a predetermined program, and the fourth terminal device 200d updates the first block based on a predetermined program. The first block may be added to the second distributed ledger held by the fourth terminal device 200d.

In such a case, the fourth terminal device 200d identifies individuals included in the first block based on a predetermined program that specifies financial benefits according to the content of personal information stored in the storage unit 204 provided in the fourth terminal device 200d. The first block may be updated by using the content of the information to calculate remuneration information of monetary benefits to be provided in association with the first user ID.

Further, for example, the second terminal device further broadcasts the updated first block to the P2P network 300, and the fourth terminal device 200d, which has received the updated first block, broadcasts the updated first block. The updated first block may be added to the second distributed ledger held by the fourth terminal device 200d.

Specifically, for example, the fourth terminal device 200d verifies whether the hash puzzle solution included in the block header of the updated first block is the correct solution, and as a result of the verification, the fourth terminal device 200d adds When it is determined that the included solution is correct, the fourth terminal device 200d may add the updated first block to the second distributed ledger as the latest block. On the other hand, when it is determined as a result of the verification that the solution included in the block header is incorrect, the fourth terminal device 200d may discard the updated first block.

Note that in the above, the fourth terminal device 200d may be a terminal device different from the second terminal device 200b, and may be the third terminal device 200c described above.

As described above, with reference to FIGS. 6 to 10, the transmission and reception of information performed between the server device 10 and the plurality of terminal devices 200, and the information processing performed in each part of the server device 10 and the plurality of terminal devices 200. explained.

Note that the timing at which the terminal device 200 receives the above-mentioned predetermined program, database, and distributed ledger may be arbitrarily set by the provider of this service, and its specific contents are beyond the scope of this disclosure. Not limited.

Note that each page on the website related to this service or each page on the application software related to this service may be scrollable. For example, in the display medium 201 shown in FIG. 7, the setting completion button 73 may be displayed by operating a scroll bar or touch panel (not shown).

In addition, in the above explanation, it was explained that the monetary benefit given to the user as compensation for setting personal information is specified depending on the content of the personal information. The financial benefit may be a uniform fixed amount.

As described above, the information processing method according to the present embodiment includes a plurality of terminal devices 200 and a server device 10, and a P2P network 300 is configured by at least some of the terminal devices 200 among the plurality of terminal devices 200 and the server device 10. An information processing method in an information processing system 1 that manages reward information of monetary profits using a plurality of distributed ledgers using a blockchain held in at least two or more devices among a plurality of devices constituting a P2P network 300. The first terminal device 200a displays a setting page on a display medium 201 provided in the first terminal device 200a, which allows personal information to be set for at least one user item out of one or more user items. In this case, when personal information is set for one or more user items out of all user items in accordance with a predetermined operation, the content of the set personal information associated with the first user ID is sent to the server. When the server device 10 receives the contents of the set personal information associated with the first user ID, the server device 10 transmits the first transaction data including the contents of the set personal information and the first user ID. When the second terminal device 200b that holds the first distributed ledger receives the first transaction data, it generates a first block including the first transaction data, and generates a first block according to the content of the personal information. Based on a predetermined program that specifies the financial benefits obtained, the reward information of the financial benefits to be provided in association with the first user ID is calculated using the set personal information included in the first block. The first block may be updated and the updated first block may be added to the first distributed ledger.

Thereby, when a user sets personal information for one or more user items, the distributed ledger can be used to contribute to managing remuneration information according to the content of the set personal information.

Note that in the above description, it was assumed that any terminal device 200 that holds a distributed ledger among the plurality of terminal devices 200 included in the P2P network 300 generates the first block. The terminal device to be generated may be a specific terminal device 200.

Specifically, for example, when the server device 10 generates first transaction data including the content of personal information set on the setting page and the first user ID, the server device 10 generates the second terminal device 200b held in the storage device 103. The first transaction data may be transmitted to the second terminal device 200b using the address information. The address information of the second terminal device 200b may be, for example, platform address information. The address information may be included in a distributed ledger held by the server device 10, for example.

That is, the information processing method in such a case includes a plurality of terminal devices 200 and a server device 10, a P2P network 300 is configured by at least some of the terminal devices among the plurality of terminal devices 200 and the server device 10, and the P2P network 300 An information processing method in an information processing system 1 that manages remuneration information of monetary profits using a plurality of distributed ledgers using a blockchain held in at least two or more devices constituting a first When a setting page that allows personal information to be set for at least one user item out of all one or more user items is displayed on the display medium 201 provided in the first terminal device 200a, the terminal device 200a displays a predetermined When personal information is set for one or more user items out of all user items in response to an operation, the content of the set personal information associated with the first user ID is sent to the server device 10. , when the server device 10 receives the contents of the set personal information associated with the first user ID, the server device 10 transmits the first transaction data including the contents of the set personal information and the first user ID to the second terminal device. 200b to the second terminal device 200b, and the second terminal device 200b holds the first distributed ledger and, when receiving the first transaction data, sends the first block containing the first transaction data to the second terminal device 200b. Based on a predetermined program that generates and specifies financial benefits according to the content of personal information, monetary benefits are provided in association with the first user ID using the content of the set personal information included in the first block. The first block may be updated by calculating profit remuneration information, and the updated first block may be added to the first distributed ledger.

Thereby, when a user sets personal information for one or more user items, the distributed ledger can be used to contribute to managing remuneration information according to the content of the set personal information.

Note that the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and various modifications are possible. Each modification will be explained below.

Note that in the first terminal device 200a, information for displaying the settings page may be included in a distributed ledger held by the first terminal device 200a. In such a case, the distributed ledger that includes the settings page may be a different blockchain from the distributed ledger that includes the content of the personal information and the information on the financial interest identified using the first user ID. Further, in the first terminal device 200a, information for displaying the settings page may be received from a predetermined device not included in the P2P network 300 via a communication network, and may be stored in the storage unit 204, for example. In this case, the timing at which the first terminal device 200a receives information for displaying the settings page from the predetermined device may be set arbitrarily. Further, the information received from the predetermined device may be managed separately from the distributed ledger in the storage unit 204, or may be added to the distributed ledger. Note that the predetermined device may be, for example, a predetermined server, a distributed database, a distributed file storage, or the like.

Returning to FIG. 12, when the settings page is displayed on the display medium 201, the first terminal device 200a displays personal information for one or more user items among all user items in accordance with a predetermined operation. It may also be detected that the setting is associated with the user ID (step S1202).

Specifically, for example, the first terminal device 200a may detect that personal information has been set on the settings page 700 shown in FIG. 7. In such a case, the application software related to this service installed on the first terminal device 200a operated by the user may be started in association with the first user ID, and the contents of the personal information set on the setting page may be It may be associated with the first user ID.

Note that, as described in the first embodiment, the setting page displayed on the display medium 201 of the first terminal device 200a may be a page for acquiring personal information through API cooperation with an external system.

Returning to FIG. 12, the first terminal device 200a may generate first transaction data including the set personal information and the first user ID (step S1203).

Specifically, for example, when personal information is set on the settings page, the first terminal device 200a may generate first transaction data including the content of the personal information and the first user ID. The first transaction data may further include an electronic signature, as described in the first embodiment.

Returning to FIG. 12, the first terminal device 200a may broadcast the first transaction data to the P2P network 300e (step S1204). Specifically, for example, the first terminal device 200a may transmit the first transaction data to a plurality of terminal devices 200 corresponding to a plurality of adjacent nodes in the P2P network 300.

Note that the first transaction data broadcast from the first terminal device 200a may be verified, for example, at the third terminal device 200c, as described in the first embodiment.

That is, when the third terminal device 200c receives the first transaction data broadcast from the first terminal device 200a, the third terminal device 200c stores the first transaction data based on the predetermined criteria stored in the storage unit 204 provided in the third terminal device 200c. When a predetermined criterion is met, the second terminal device 200b broadcasts the verified first transaction data to the P2P network 300, and the second terminal device 200b generates a first block based on the verified first transaction data. You may.

Returning to FIG. 12, when the second terminal device 200b holding the first distributed ledger receives the first transaction data, it may generate a first block including the first transaction data (step S606). Further, the second terminal device 200b corresponds to the first user ID using the set personal information included in the first block based on a predetermined program that specifies financial profit according to the personal information. The first block may be updated by calculating remuneration information of monetary benefits to be provided (step S607). The second terminal device 200b may add the updated first block to the first distributed ledger (step S608), and may broadcast the block to the P2P network 300 (step S609). In FIG. 12, details of the information processing from step S606 to step S609 are omitted because they overlap with the description in the first embodiment.

As described above, the information processing method according to the first modification includes a plurality of terminal devices 200 that configure a P2P network 300 on a predetermined platform using a blockchain, and at least some terminals among the plurality of terminal devices 200. An information processing method in an information processing system 1 that manages remuneration information of monetary profits using a plurality of distributed ledgers held in the device, wherein the first terminal device 200a manages at least one or more of all user items. When a setting page that allows personal information to be set for one user item is displayed on the display medium 201 provided in the first terminal device 200a, one or more users out of all the user items may When personal information is set for an item in association with a first user ID, first transaction data including the content of the set personal information and the first user ID is broadcast to the P2P network 300, and a first distributed When the second terminal device 200b holding the ledger receives the first transaction data, the second terminal device 200b generates a first block including the first transaction data, and based on a predetermined program that specifies financial profit according to the content of the personal information. , the first block is updated by calculating the reward information of the monetary benefit given in association with the first user ID using the contents of the set personal information included in the first block, and the updated first block is updated. One block may be added to the first distributed ledger.

As a result, even on a platform that does not include the server device 10, when a user sets personal information for one or more user items, the distributed ledger is used to display remuneration information according to the content of the set personal information. can contribute to management.

In addition, in the above description, it was explained that among the plurality of terminal devices 200, any terminal device 200 that holds the distributed ledger generates the first block, but for example, the terminal device that generates the first block is It may be a specific second terminal device 200b.

Specifically, for example, when the first terminal device 200a generates first transaction data including the personal information set on the settings page and the first user ID, the first terminal device 200a generates first transaction data including the contents of the personal information set on the setting page and the first user ID. The first transaction data may be sent to the second terminal device 200b using the address information of the device 200b. The address information of the second terminal device 200b may be, for example, platform address information. The address information may be included in a distributed ledger held by the first terminal device 200a.

That is, the information processing method in such a case includes a plurality of terminal devices 200 configuring a P2P network 300 on a predetermined platform using blockchain, and the information processing method is held in at least some of the terminal devices among the plurality of terminal devices 200. An information processing method in an information processing system 1 that manages remuneration information of monetary profits using a plurality of distributed ledgers, wherein the first terminal device 200a selects at least one user item among all one or more user items.
