Planck units don’t imply a discrete universe. This is a common misunderstanding

Sure, but address the question: *if* time is quantized and discrete, would you agree the formalism of QM breaks down? Yes or no?
Only after addressing that question can we proceed because then this raises the question that how would a discrete and quantized time change our interpretation of Planck Units.
Yes mathematically you can divide them into smaller units, but physically you cannot. Again Bitcoin is showing us what a quantized model of time looks like. Please show me a valid 1/2 of a block of time or a valid 1/10 of a block of time in bitcoin.
I’ll be waiting.
According to chatgibity, quantizing time doesn't break quantum mechanics. It just changes it. Also, given that Bitcoin seems to quantize time in a similar way to a clock, in that it breaks it into discrete units, but not atomic units, I don't see what that has to do with quantum mechanics. There seems to be some bait and switch going on by relying on multiple definitions of the same word.
