Do you need a Blockchain

Bitcoin and its blockchain have allowed mutually mistrusting entities to perform financial payments without relying on a central trusted third party while offering a transparent and integrity protected data storage [1].

Contrary to Bitcoin’s permission- less blockchain, where any writer and reader can join at any time, so-called permissioned blockchains have been proposed, where only an authorized set of entities is allowed to write and read the respective blockchain. A permissioned blockchain, however, shares similarities with a centralized database, and this naturally brings up the question whether a blockchain is better suited than a centralized database
