How Flash Is The Time Travel Of Money

You may have have heard the term “money now is worth more than money later”, but what does this actually mean?

How is capital in the present worth more than capital in the future? If we can travel into the future of the physical world, why can’t we travel into the future of the financial world?

Flashstaking is the concept of locking money today and earning money from the future. All done in a decentralized, instantaneous, and permissionless manner. Let’s dive in to see how it works.

Flash To The Future

In the physical world, a portal is a gateway that connects one location with another location. What makes them unique is that when a person goes through a portal, they don’t have to travel the space between the two locations.

In the financial world, a flashstake is a gateway that connects the value of today with the value of tomorrow. What makes them unique is that when a person locks their capital with a flashstake, they don’t have to travel the time between the two values.

The Time travel Of Money

Sounds cool and all, but how does all this work? Where is the money from?

In the famous scene from Back to the future, Marty McFly time travels into the future with Doc and immediately asks “Where the hell are we?!” Doc responds that the better question is “When the hell are we?”

Understanding that where and when are two different dimensions each with their own coordinates may set a solid foundation to grasp the concept of flashstaking.

When they think of $FLASH, we must understand when it is coming from and why it has value.

The transfer less Medium Exchange

When we ask what something is worth, immediate reaction is to figure out what someone is willing to pay for it. We want to know how much someone is willing to open their wallet and transfer capital to another individual.

However, with flashstaking, it is possible to value an asset without the exchange of anything. We can value it based on time.

Let’s imagine you go to Ebay and find some new Air Jordan sneakers you really, really want. The price tag is $200.

However, what if instead of the seller asking you to send them money, they ask to lock money. Would you do it?

Would you be willing to lock $1000 for a year? No? How about $1000 for a week?

We can see here that, without a transfer of money or medium of exchange, we are able to put a market value on the Air Jordan sneakers using nothing but time. No transfer needed.
