Description:TECHNICAL FIELD
The present disclosure relates generally to electric transactions. More particularly, the present disclosure relates to a system, a method, and an apparatus for digital asset transfer.
BACKGROUND
With the evolution of digitization, number of digital transactions has drastically increased. However, the contemporary systems do not provide a secure and reliable solution to digital transactions. Further, it has been observed that such systems are only limited to transactions of currency in a digital form and do not support transfer of digital assets. Furthermore, the contemporary systems provide transaction between two users and do not support a provision a transaction between more than two users or transferring the requests of acquiring assets to more than one user.
Thus, there is a need for a system and a method capable of providing secure and reliable transaction of digital assets between two or more users, and thus demands a need for improvised technical solution that overcomes the aforementioned problems.
