In case you didn't know, Git is effectively blockchain. It's just that 'breaking' the chain/rewriting history is as simple as `git push --force` and other clients can accept the rewritten history with `git reset origin/<branch> --hard`. Blockchain is (more) useful when artificial scarcity isn't involved.
