Claim 0:
1. A method for performing segmenting locking of encrypted digital assets based on time dimension, the method comprising:
storing on a first user terminal a first encrypted digital asset (N, M) of a type of currency N and an amount of the currency M in a first data structure of the first user terminal;
adding attributes for an overall time period interval (T1, T2) of the first encrypted digital asset (N, M) to a second data structure of the first user terminal, in order to expand the first encrypted digital asset (N, M) into a second encrypted digital asset (N, M, T1, T2) having attributes for the overall time period interval (T1, T2), where T1 is a start timestamp of a user's possession of the digital asset (N, M) and T2 is an end timestamp of the user's possession of the digital asset (N, M);
separating, based on the second data structure, the first user terminal's ownership related to the first encrypted digital asset (N, M) in the overall time period interval (T1, T2) into a right to use of a second user terminal related to the first encrypted digital asset (N, M) in a first time period interval (T1, P), and the first user terminal's ownership of the first encrypted digital asset (N, M) in a second time period interval (P+1, T2), wherein the first time period interval (T1, P) spans between the start timestamp T1 of a user's possession of the digital asset (N, M) and an intervening timestamp P that is between the start timestamp T1 and the end timestamp T2, wherein the second time period interval (P+1, T2) spans between a second after the intervening timestamp P and the end timestamp T2, and wherein the start timestamp T1, the intervening timestamp P, and the end timestamp T2 are any positive integers, and the T1<P<T2; and
assuming the intervening timestamp P is equal to a time to preform the time lock operation (p) and splitting the encrypted digital asset (N, M) into (N, M, T, p) and (N, M, p+1,∞) at a time point in the future to complete the segmentation operation for the time lock of the digital asset (M, N) at the future time point p.
