The Valuation of Digital Labor
As gamers earn 5ETH designing virtual outfits in Decentraland, and students host meetings in Horizon Workrooms for “TimeCoins”, digital labor is reshaping value systems. Yet current platforms suffer two critical flaws:
Invisible exploitation of creative time (up to 45% platform commissions)
Isolated time assets across metaverses (gaming hours ≠ educational credits)
The Cross-Metaverse Protocol
Our triple-layered tech stack builds temporal value bridges:
Atomic Time Units: Fragment 1-minute activities into composable NFTs
Encoded data types (creation/social/learning)
Environmental metadata (platform/IP/interaction objects)
Proof-of-Value (PoV) Algorithm:
function calculateValue(address _user) public view returns (uint) {
uint creativity = computeCreativityScore(_user);
uint socialImpact = getSocialNodes(_user);
return (creativity * 0.6 + socialImpact * 0.4) * timeStaked[_user];
}
Cross-Chain Time Exchange: Automated market pools for 12+ crypto conversions.
Hybrid Use Cases
Case 1 - Digital Artist Lina:
Spent 37hrs creating VR sculptures in Somnium Space ➔ Minted “Creative Time NFT”
Staked NFT for 850 TimeCoins ➔ Redeemed real-world pottery workshop
Remaining assets yield 11.3% APY via DeFi lending
Case 2 - Telemedicine Team:
3D surgical simulations in MetaHospital ➔ Generate “Medical Training Credits”
Transfer credits to LinkedIn as professional certification
Reduced health insurance premiums by 22%
The Temporal Equity Movement
Building the future of temporal equity:
Time Credit Scores: Metaverse alternative to FICO (Beta with 3 Web3 banks)
Time UBI Trials: DAO-funded “Basic Time Capital” airdrops to developing regions
Cultural Heritage Pool: Indigenous elders’ storytelling time generates perpetual royalties
