A comment on Eric Brewer on Why Banks Are BASE Not ACID – Availability Is Revenue (2013). Parent comment

The blockchain gives you something like eventual consistency, but it's probabilistic.
You have atomicity within a single block, but given the acceptance of the block is only eventually consistent, I'm not sure it's meaningful.
