Bitcoin's average 10 minute update window ( which isn't exact because of the design), is kind of a genius move.
We are all used to having real time systems so much, adding delay, that too in minutes, in some update in what's actually a database/ledger, seems counter-intuitive.
Point where I want to get, and what I find interesting, is why can't we add this same kind back off time-wait logic into (decentralized) social media updates.
Why do we want real time updates. Lets give people 10 minutes to think about something and reply. haha
