        Title           : BGP Blockchain

Abstract:
   A variety of mechanisms have been developed and deployed over the
   years to secure BGP including the more recent RPKI/ROA mechanisms.
   Is it also possible to use a distributed ledger such as Blockchain to
   secure BGP?  BGP provides decentralized connectivity across the
   Internet.  Blockchain provides decentralized secure transactions in a
   append-only, tamper-resistant ledger.  This document reviews possible
   opportunities of using Blockchain to secure BGP policies within a
   domain and across the global Internet.
