The present specification discloses a blockchain computer application. This blockchain computer application includes a Graphical User Interface (GUI) that supports the organization and blockchaining of files to a blockchain. This GUI includes a virtual blockchain organizational tool onto which users can drag and drop files and organize them into various virtual blockchain blocks without permanently attaching those files to an actual blockchain until the virtual blockchain is converted to an actual blockchain. The conversion process preserves the organizational structure of the files set within the virtual blockchain. Files may also be automatically blockchained to a specific blockchain by dragging them and dropping them onto a blockchain application desktop icon. Files may also be automatically blockchained to specific blockchains by dragging them and dropping them onto a blockchain icon within the GUI where each blockchain icon is directly associated with a separate blockchain.
