Cool!

Makes me think of blockchain: it is also a tool to ensure "consistent" state changes. Have you thought of moving your game on some blockchain?

For example, XAI is a blockchain specifically designed for games, you should check it out

blockchain is too slow and completely inappropriate.

this thread makes me want to build a platform

I tend to lean toward the raft protocol vs blockchain due to storage

raft is too non-deterministic. Something like paxos is probably more appropriate; the write-once property is exactly what you want here, and it is deterministic.

Talking about blockchains is fine, pretending they are somewhat apt at solving a problem that isn't money laundering is what will get you frowned upon.
