So a [Merkle tree](http://www..com/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Merkle_tree)?
i'm not sure whether matrix uses that, what i'm talking about is how it does the things everyone finds neat about blockchains without the inherent downsides like massive power usage and EVERYONE having to replicate the ENTIRE ledger.
i know IPFS uses merkle trees though, and hilariously blockchains largely rely on that to actually store any significantly sized data.
