A system may include a federated shipping node. The federated shipping node may receive shipping information for a parcel and determine a new shipping state for the parcel based on the shipping information. The federated shipping node may append the new shipping state to a blockchain. In addition, the federated shipping node may store the new shipping state in an off-chain database. A previous shipping state for the parcel may be replaced with the new shipping state in the off-chain database. To display the real-time information related to the parcel, the federated shipping node may receive the new shipping state from the off-chain database, and send the new shipping state to a device for display. To display the historical information related to the parcel, the federated shipping node may receive previous shipping states from the blockchain, and send the previous shipping states to the device for display.

A system supports authorization and custody tracking for physical concessions. In some cases, a physical concession or other physical object may be tracked to ensure that custodians that gain possession of the physical concession have proper authorization. Further, custody tracking may ensure that a particular custodian is issued the authorized amount of physical concession(s). Authorization circuitry may, via a peer network, access proof of authorization and custody status stored on a blockchain. Based on the proof of authorization and custody status, the authorization circuitry may determine whether issuance of the physical concession to a receiving custodian is allowed. After allowing/disallowing issuance of the physical concession, tracking circuitry may send, via the peer network, a request to update the blockchain.
