Whenever somebody proposes blockchain as a solution, one has to ask whether blockchain offers a cost/benefit tradeoff that is worthwhile.

1. Does this problem need a distributed ledger, or would a single entity controlling a database work?

2. Are the transactions slow and high-value?

3. Would replacing "blockchain" with "git" work?
