      That distributed database exists and has been up and running for years.

      But is an environmental catastrophe and has no legal value.

      There would also be the question of which government is going to run it?

      Every government would have to run their own, because every government gets to decide ownership within their own borders. Think of patents. Who owns the worldwide international patent database? Nobody, there is no such thing because each country decides on the validity of patents within their own borders. Now, there are patent treaties and things, but fundamentally if a patent dispute happens in France, it’s the French courts who decide using the French patents database.
