Embodiments may be associated with a secure, distributed transaction ledger. The system may include a Database that contains electronic records providing JSON schema content format requirements. A computer processor of a content validation smart contract creation platform, coupled to the JSON schema data store, may access information in the JSON schema data store. The content validation smart contract creation platform may then automatically create a content validation smart contract based on the JSON schema content format requirements. The content validation smart contract may then be deployed by the content validation smart contract creation platform to the secure, distributed transaction ledger.
