The potential and perils of a blockchain-based temporal currency system. If in the future the only thing of true value is time itself describe applications of Einstein's theory of relativity, such as time dilation, that may be used as part of a temporal trading strategy. It's important to note that time dilation effects predicted by Einstein's theory of relativity are very small for typical trading applications. However, there are some theoretical possibilities for using these effects in a temporal trading strategy. One potential application of time dilation is in high-frequency trading, where even small disparities in timing can lead to significant advantages in the market. In particular, if a trader were able to move a clock to a location with a stronger gravitational field, time would appear to run slower for that clock relative to clocks in weaker gravitational fields. This effect is known as gravitational time dilation and is a prediction of Einstein's theory of ge...
