This is super deep. Tell me if I am understanding correctly. I read it & had to also run it through an LLM to maybe grasp the concept. Ok, so physics assumes time flows smoothly, but we can’t actually prove that because we can only measure events in ticks. Bitcoin shows a system where time clearly moves in discrete steps “blocks”’ so you are suggesting maybe reality itself could work in steps too? So my dumb-dumb TL;DR take is: Time might not flow smoothly like a river, but instead advance in tiny jumps … like the frames of a flipbook or an old video. Just as Bitcoin only updates when a new block is added, the universe might also “update” in microscopic, discrete moments… so small that we simply can’t perceive them.
