The concept you're describing is called a "smart contract." There isn't a second blockchain, but the transaction itself specifies conditions that must arise before the funds move.

And for a cryptocurrency-specific implementation, see http://nashx.com/HowItWorks

Yes, i think a "smart-contract" would do the trick.. with the plus you could define more arbitrary parameters, to model some context that fits your need.

But the coin blockchain would at least to have a little context about the second one, the "smart contract" one.. binding/linking the transactions in the second blockchain to itself.
