no, since it's public, if you care so much about it, you keep a periodic snapshot of the hashes. So you're trusting yourself (and math). What's missing to be a "blockchain" in (what should be) the generally accepted definition is byzantine fault tolerance.

Right so save some time and put the hashes in a Merkel tree and publish on the Bitcoin blockchain. Now the proof can be found trustlessly and the longest PoW points to the true dataset
