> None of these DBs seem to be byzantine fault tolerant, though. Any examples of BFT databases?

Not sure what you mean. Obviously we can't have blockchain level of byzantine fault tolerance against malicious nodes. Only against byzantine failures. But then this is pretty much what CAP answers, where AP systems can handle byzantine failures, because they don't need consensus, while CP can't, because they do. Quorum logic is in the middle here, where you can handle some byzantine failures and have some consistency.
