Would it be possible to create a permissioned network with rootstock?

Would it be possible to create a permissioned network with rootstock for enterprise use cases where open access would not be ideal? For example, implementing a central bank digital currency focused on financial interactions between financial institutions

It is possible. In fact, the original Rootstock protocol back in 2018 had a PoA (Proof-of-authority) module as a backup block mining method if the hashrate dropped below a certain threshold. The module was deactivated shortly after Rootstock hashrate took off.
