To prepare the deceased for the journey to the afterworld, the "opening of the mouth" ceremony was performed on the mummy and the mummy case by priests. Upon arriving in the realm of the Duat (Land of the Gods), the deceased had to pass through seven gates, reciting accurately a magic spell at each stop. If successful, they arrived at the Hall of Osiris, the place of judgement. Forty-two gods listened to the confessions of the deceased who claimed to be innocent of crimes against the divine and human social order. The Duat is the blockchain, the eternal graveyard for information where it cannot be tampered with. The Egyptian's didn't focus on that much though, they focused on the process of judgement. The process of confirmation. The process of finding consensus among a multitude of independent Gods. One could say of many independent nodes. This process decides who gets to stay in the Duat and who doesn't. This process is decentralized decision making. This process is a working oracle network. Death is Chainlink.

One, I repeat, one more thing. When a pharaoh passed the test, he became one with the god Osiris. One might say one, as in a singularity.
