|
||
<p>With distributed data stores there is no guarantees in the order in which transactions will be commited to the
|
||
database. Witouth knowing what is previous transactions to be commited to the database we cannot include its hash in
|
||
the current transaction to build the chain.</p>
|
||
<p>To solve this problem we decided to use blocks and create the chain with the blocks.</p>
