on the other hand, if it's bound to energy or information transfer, it's bound to end. but yeah, time encompasses any such events.

I wanna see his answer, but I think so. the hash function depends on energy transfers (and Ed's point aside, heat death is when all energy is equally distributed across space)

Even assuming we've got the basic plot, cosmic entropy max. is trillions of years out. It's hard to see how it's a human problem.

Is cosmic entropy transcendental, then? (Or am I getting something really badly confused? (Which is very likely—this naturally does my head in.))

From my very paltry understanding, (extreme) initial cosmic negative entropy is the great cosmo-physics head-scratcher. ...

... It would be highly weird if armchair human philosophy was capable of proposing a solution to the puzzle that planetary technoscience was happy to defer to.

Right, but what's the Crypto-current thesis then? Isn't it that the blockchain is a transcendental time-synthesiser? Maybe I'm thinking it's a stronger claim than it is.

Not sure I'm getting the question. I'm definitely not arguing that Satoshi Nakamoto has invented a perpetual motion machine.

Yes sorry, I'm really bad at formulating questions. Let me try and rephrase it. In the Kantian schema, with its transcendental-empirical time rift (which Deleuze takes up), succession is modal, right?

If the blockchain operates as a transcendental time synthesiser, what is its pure form of time, and what is its empirical, modal time? What is the temporal status of succession (that being the key feature of the blockchain) in this schema?
