//! # Data Representations
//!
//! We need persistence for [`Block`]s and [`User`]s, not so much for [`Transaction`]s
//!
//! There are around 30 students, a full fledged database would be an overkill (for next year?)
//!
//! Pending transactions are held in memory, these are cleared with every new block
//! Only the last block is held in memory, every block is written to a file
//! Users are held in memory and they're also backed up to text files
