In some embodiments, a method includes generating, based on distributed ledger data associated with a first distributed ledger-based network (DLN), distributed ledger data associated with a second DLN. The first DLN and the second DLN each is a fork and the distributed ledger data associated with the first DLN include account data associated with a set of accounts. The method includes generating a request to initiate a transaction between a first account and a second account. The method includes authenticating the transaction based on a protocol associated with the second DLN and without using a private cryptographic key of the first account. The method includes sending a signal indicating the transaction was authenticated and storing information associated with the transaction in the distributed ledger data associated with the second DLN.
