# Real-Time

A blockchain systems has two important parameters when evaluating them if they are working in real-time: 

* Block time - between 5 sec. (ARTIS ∑1) and 10 min. (Bitcoin)\
  \&#xNAN;*\[Earliest inclusion of transactions sent to the blockchain]* 
* Transaction Finality - between 1 min. (ARTIS ∑1) and 60 min. (Bitcoin)\
  \&#xNAN;*\[Time until one can be certain that the transaction is final]*

ARTIS ∑2 is built to set completely new standards. 

* Transaction Finality: 1-2 sec. 
* Streaming Money - Superfluid Cashflows: Enabling continuous value transfers.
