Blockchain and blockchain-related technologies are being rapidly invented to the point that it is difficult to define specifically which properties are necessary to constitute a blockchain. It may therefore seem far too early to meaningfully discuss the creation of international blockchain standards. This article will argue the opposite by summarising some existing international standards work related to blockchains, and propose directions for additional standards development that could meaningfully be explored in the near future without negatively impacting additional invention.
