Time is the only currency @Timecoin__
I strongly agree with this perspective!
For the individual self, time is the only currency. All self-activities involve spending time to exchange for currency, paying currency to purchase others' and one's own time. (Take gaming and products like DY, which are essentially distractions, as examples: they make you willingly spend your own time, giving it to the platform and top influencers. In other words, the time you invest is monetized by DY and influencers.)
For the external society, the fundamental value of currency is to allocate resources, so currency is information that allocates resources. Therefore, the consensus on the total amount of allocable resources is the endorsement of the totality of information (the database). It can allocate various resources across time and space, and the combination of resources can save time (the essence of reducing spatial limitations is also saving time).
So in short ⬇️
To determine whether a project can yield significant returns, look at two points: 1. Can it greatly improve efficiency (indirectly saving time)? 2. Can it attract a lot of traffic (consuming others' time)?
To determine whether a person has high value, also consider two points: 1. Possess strong capabilities (quickly and effectively advancing things to fruition). 2. Have abundant resources (coordinating and integrating to create greater effects).
