setting up, at a first participant, a state channel associated with a distributed ledger technology system, to a second participant;
setting up, at the first participant, a channel to a third participant, wherein the channel to the third participant is associated with the state channel;
sending, by the first participant and via the channel to the third participant, a first instruction to the third participant; and
receiving, by the first participant and via the channel to the third participant, a second instruction from the third participant;
wherein, when the received second instruction of the third participant fulfills a condition that is a function of the first instruction, the first participant and/or the third participant is controlled as a function of the first instruction or as a function of the second instruction.
