Ah, , because who doesn't love a good acronym party where you pretend your distributed to-do list is the next big thing? ๐Ÿ™„ Apparently, merging distributed databases is the new "big idea"โ€”because copy-pasting in Google Docs wasn't groundbreaking enough. ๐ŸŽ‰

๐Ÿค” Ah, the elusive "Strong Eventual Consistency" of CRDTsโ€”where data structures frolic freely, merging like magic while you daydream about the grand revolution in distributed databases. ๐ŸŒ๐Ÿ’พ Because, obviously, the world desperately needs its multiplayer TODO lists to be more synchronized than a boy band in the '90s. ๐ŸŽคโœŒ๏ธ

Question for people who like to geek out about Merkle trees. Anti-crypto comments will be ignored.

If a P2P network is storing genealogical records, it does need universal consensus, right? Alice can't be the daughter of Bob in one part of the network, and daughter of Johan in another part.

Does that mean this is legitimate use case for a BlockChain? Or could you use something like HoloChain?
