Has anyone seen the adventure entitled 'Logopolis' ?

It's where the Doctor visits the planet of Logopolis where mathematicians perform 'Block-Transfer-Computation' which
creates and maintains the universe from pure mathematical calculation --  sound familiar ?
Each block is stacked on top of the previous one. Adding another block to the top makes all lower blocks more difficult to remove: there is more "weight" above each block. A transaction in a block 6 blocks deep (6 confirmations) will be very difficult to remove.
