Guilder wants a fixed price (in terms of his theory of money = time) while Satoshi fixed cost within that theoretical framework: the energy required to mine BitCoin increases over time, but the same amount is mined per unit of time (1 block per 10 mins)

But... 1 block of now arbitrary size, which has no relationship to the total supply of indivisible tokens (i.e. satoshis aka abstract and tradeable time). Gilder wants a fixed price for each satoshi, and a variable supply. Suppose 1 satoshi = 1 minute...

I need to read his work as well, because there seems to be a similarity in their approach to the relationship between time and money, though from different angles, which struck me as interesting. Great question and stimulating conversation. Thanks.

Yes, very interesting to me as well and thanks to you, too.
