Company patents

CFPH, LLC

CFPH, LLC's patent strategy shows a surprising and significant shift away from its core areas, with "Coin / Token Operated Apparatus" (59.5% of portfolio) declining by 70.3% so far in 2026, and "Business Methods & Fintech" (46.5% of portfolio) also seeing a substantial 54.3% decline in the same period, indicating a broad de-prioritization of its traditional consumer and fintech focuses. Despite this, there's an emerging focus in "Routing, Switching & QoS" and "Computer Vision," both experiencing a 200.0% year-over-year growth in 2026, albeit from a small base.

DARKPOOL MATCHING OF ORDERS WITH PRICE DISCRETION

Filed:2020-11-06Pub:2021-02-25
Applicant:CFPH, LLC

Various embodiments are directed to systems and methods for processing a discretion order in a dark pool matching environment. A first order to buy or sell a trading product is received from a computer of a first trader. The first order has a first price and a first size. A second order to buy or sell the trading product that is contra to the first order is received from a second trader. The second order defines a second quantity and a price range of possible prices at which the second order can be executed. The price range comprises at least a second price. The second quantity of the trading product is reserved in an OMS of the second trader such that the second quantity of the second order is permitted by the OMS to be executed at any price within the price range. The second order is received before or after the first order is received. A processor determines that the first price of the first order is within the price range of the second order. Responsive to the determination, two items are output to the second trader: (1) the price of the first order and (2) an execution indicia selectable by the second trader to cause at least a portion of the second order to be executed against at least a portion of the first order. The first price of the first order and the execution indicia are not output or otherwise disclosed to the second trader prior to the act of determining that the first price of the first order is within the price range of the second order.
