Zusammenfassung:A system includes at least a first computing device, at a financial institution, configured to generate a currency request and apply first-level signature(s) to the currency request. A minting request is generated from the currency request and the first-level signature(s). The system also includes at least a second computing device, at a currency management department, configured to apply second-level signature(s) to the minting request to generate a signed minting request. The system also includes a third computing device, at a director's office, configured to apply third-level signature(s) to the signed minting request. The system also includes a plurality of network nodes, implementing a distributed ledger, configured to verify the first-level signature(s), the second-level signature(s), and the third-level signature(s); and mint the digital currency when the first-level signature(s), the second-level signature(s), and the third-level signature(s) are successfully verified.
