There may be an underlying theory to simple types of blockchain, directed acyclic graph DAG (tangle) as of iota and bitlattice.org . bitlattice also has transformations to DAG , before this it is in 5 dimensions and does not have the limitations of blockchains (says the author).
I myself find it a nice question to describe the user interaction with the bitlattice/DAG/simple type of blockchain and to find out how
https://www.computerwoche.de/a/syntegration-wenn-alle-wie-ein-gehirn-arbeiten,577452 helps to develop out of bitlattice a set of rules/model/theory that is better than blockchain and DAG-tangle .
P.S: Such network (bitlattice) could potentially act as a neural network and be able to self-organize to a certain extent. (cited) deepl.com may help You to translate the above article from Computerwoche .
