GM nostr. In a perfect 10-minute Bitcoin block, approximately 1.11 x 10^{46} Planck times fit into that duration.

The timescale difference between Planck time and a 10-minute block is ~10^{46}. The difference timescale is incomprehensibly large.

Bitcoin is a frequency which operates statistically at 1.667 x 10^{-3} hertz.

The more you know.

Bitcoin: proof-of-work makes Planck time look lazy.

I don’t think this correct take.

Bitcoin: the observation that proof of work peer to peer systems are fundamental.

Also Bitcoin provides hints at unresolved states between discrete blocks of time (lightning channels that do not seek resolution in the present).
