We know the volume of the potential block and the volume of deterministic (mined) block, we know the mol number (supply of Satoshis at each block t). Entropy is quantized by a standardized PoW function + quantized difficulty. We have all of the pieces and the instantiation to demonstrate quantized time events with a provable arrow and direction.

I wrote an essay about adding an 8th constant to the SI system

I agree with this sentiment a lot, but if we apply the bounded ledger (utxo model of time) to physics our understanding of constants changes too.

Bitcoin has multiple constants, value (BTC, sats), block size (mb), number of private keys, 1 block of time. Bitcoin has a speed of information/memory. What is light?

If we apply some bounded logic to something like temperature, Planck

Temp becomes the defacto bounded supply of measurable Kelvin units in the system, Boltzmann’s constant loses its dimensionality of Kelvin as it no longer remains bounded to the domain of Kelvin (a measurements are supply relative) and Boltzmann’s constant becomes Planck Energy.

Hmmmmmm 🤔 we now have a constant of entropy that applies to any bounded domain (Bitcoin)
