Various embodiments are directed to processing and executing digital asset transfers between two users. An example method includes receiving a data object defining a digital asset transfer, and the data object may be a query from the first user to initiate an outbound transfer to a second user or an approval of a request for digital asset units from the second user. The method further includes receiving account data for the first and second users via application programming interface (API) communication with an external system, and responsive to determining that transfer conditions are satisfied, executing the digital asset transfer by causing the external system to debit digital asset units from the first user and to credit digital asset units to the second user via API communication with the external system. The method further includes updating the account data to reflect account balances resulting from the debit and the credit.
