 What do you mean? There are block heights and UNIX timestamps (seconds) in blockchain data, but it has nothing to do with proof of work itself, which is just doing double SHA256 hashes over any data. 
 Hello, the proof of work sets a certain pace in the TIMECHAIN and this timechain therefore has a smallest time unit of 1 single block. But there are multiple time schedules present in the timechain. most notably the halving schedule that recently happened. And also the difficulty adjustment. Do you know of any other time schedule that is coded in the timechain? Because that itself can be refferred to as a timeunit on the timechain. Like we have days and months, we got blocks and halvings and etc.
