A method includes receiving mix-in data from a remote computer node storing a remote ledger of a plurality of time-ordered cryptographic ledgers forming a tapestry. The mix-in data includes a remote identifier that uniquely identifies the remote ledger among the plurality of time-ordered cryptographic ledgers. The mix-in data also includes a remote hash value stored in a block of the remote ledger. The method includes generating a new hash value by hashing local event data, the mix-in data, a local identifier that uniquely identifies a local ledger among the plurality of time-ordered cryptographic ledgers, and a most-recent hash value of the local ledger. The method also includes constructing a new block that stores the local event data, the mix-in data, the local identifier, the most-recent hash value, and the new hash value. The method also includes updating the local ledger with the new block.
