Interesting thoughts, but it's likely to be a coincidence. We humans have the tendency to associate similar things.

Just been reading "Web of Debt"
Tally sticks were invented by the son of William the Conquerer, a type of debt free money
used for hundreds of years until they were detroyed (by parliment) around the time of the
Bank of Englands creation
The stock is like the blockchain and the "Short end of the stick" your private keys
I wonder if this is where the original Bitcoin idea came from, they are very similar
