A distributed ledger is stored by a plurality of node computing entities. A node computing entity of the plurality of node computing entities comprises at least one processor, a memory, and a communications interface configured to communicate via at least one network. The node computing entity creates a finite state machine record set. A finite state machine record of the finite state machine record set comprises (a) event data for a corresponding event and (b) a domain object state for a domain object corresponding to the corresponding event. The domain object state indicating the state of the domain object as a result of the corresponding event. The node computing entity generates a block comprising the finite state machine record set and posts the block to the distributed ledger.
