1. A method to facilitate royalty payments related to changes in access rights associated with a token, comprising:
embedding a reference to an anchor into an application for utilizing tokens, wherein:
the reference to the anchor is embedded into the application by combining an executable file with an element of the anchor;
the anchor further comprises a verifier and an identifier unique to the application; and
the element of the anchor comprises at least one of: a reference to a library configured with respect to the identifier of the anchor, a sequence of code instructions referencing the identifier, or a binary to be integrated with the application;
verifying, using the verifier of the anchor, that a token is compatible with the application;
importing the token into the application;
associating the anchor with a lock, wherein the lock governs access to content of the token;
identifying a completed transaction that changes access rights associated with the token, wherein the completed transaction is identified using at least one of a first set of information included in the anchor or a second set of information included in the lock; and
transmitting, to a party to the completed transaction, a lock value, wherein the lock value, when detected by the lock, allows the party to access the token.
