1. A machine, comprising:
- circuitry configured to accept at least one device-identifier corresponding to at least one communication device, the at least one communication device associated with at least one wireless account related to at least one real-world user, the at least one wireless account including at least some financial account data associated with the at least one real-world user;
circuitry configured to accept at least one network-participation identifier associated with at least one verified real-world user associated with the at least one communication device, including at least circuitry configured to verify at least one association of the at least one real-world user and the at least one network-participation identifier at least partly based on the at least one wireless account;
circuitry configured to assign at least one unique identifier at least partly based on (i) the at least one device-identifier, (ii) the at least one network-participation identifier, and (iii) the at least one wireless account; and
circuitry configured to add the assigned at least one unique identifier to a directory of unique identifiers, the directory of unique identifiers capable of facilitating one or more financial transactions associated with the at least some financial account data via the at least one communication device at least partly based on the at least one network-participation identifier.

19. A machine, comprising:
-
at least one processing device; a device-identifier acceptor module configured to accept at lest one device-identifier corresponding to at least one communication device, the at least one communication device associated with at least one wireless account related to at least one real-world user, the at least one wireless account including at least some financial account data associated with the at least one real-world user; a network-participation identifier acceptor configured to accept at least one network-participation identifier associated with at least one verified real-world user associated with the at least one communication device, including at least a de-anonymization module configured to verify at least one association of the at least one real-world user and the at least one network-participation identifier at least partly based on the at least one wireless account; a unique identifier unit configured to assign at least one unique identifier at least partly based on (i) the at least one device-identifier, (ii) the at least one network-participation identifier, and (iii) the at least one wireless account; and a unique identifier compiler module configured to add the assigned at least one unique identifier to a directory of unique identifiers, the directory of unique identifiers capable of facilitating one or more financial transactions associated with the at least some financial account data via the at least one communication device at least partly based on the at least one network-participation identifier, wherein the device-identifier acceptor module, the network-participation identifier acceptor module, the unique identifier unit, and the unique identifier compiler module are at least partly implemented using the at least one processing device.

20. A method, comprising:
-
accepting at least one device-identifier corresponding to at least one communication device, the at least one communication device associated with at least one wireless account related to at least one real-world user, the at least one wireless account including at least some financial account data associated with the at least one real-world user; accepting at least one network-participation identifier data associated with at least one verified real-world user associated with the at least one communication device, including at least verifying at least one association of the at least one real-world user and the at least one network-participation identifier at least partly based on the at least one wireless account; assigning at least one unique identifier at least partly based on (i) the at least one device-identifier, (ii) the at least one network-participation identifier, and (iii) the at least one wireless account; and adding the assigned at least one unique identifier to a directory of unique identifiers, the directory of unique identifiers capable of facilitating one or more financial transactions associated with the at least some financial account data via the at least one communication device at least partly based on the at least one network-participation identifier, wherein at least one of the accepting at least one device-identifier, accepting at least one network-participation identifier, assigning at least one unique identifier, or adding the assigned at least one unique identifier is at least partly implemented using at least one processing device.
