you are talking about a blockchain.

I have talked about this in many occasions to developer and they also agree that a blockchain to maintain a unique fingerprint of the game is very good to deter many attacks to modding and extensions to code, no matter the platform.

Being a blockchain would give exactly zero advantages over a traditional database.

yes it will. Because in a block chain, you can't change anything unless everyone agrees to it.

If you change that code, and place it back in the block-chain no other block will agree to your change and reject you.

As the game developer, I do not care if anyone else agrees to it. I am the ultimate authority. Thus, I don't need any kind of blockchain.

You seem to have several misconceptions about computing in general. This is not how any of this fits together.
