I am wondering that how your data is safe when an admin can change the latest state in Couchdb
using Fauxton
or cURL

You must secure your couchdb from modification by processes other than the peer, just as you must generally protect your filesystem or memory.
If you make your filesystem world writable, other users could overwrite ledger contents. Similarly, if you do not put access control on couchdb writes, then you lose the immutability properties.
