Singularity

The Singularity marks the inception of a universe, typically represented by the genesis block on its respective chain. A universe's singularity always occurs at time 0:0:0 for that universe. When discussing multiple universes, Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) is used as the standard reference.

Some known universes and their singularities:

  • Universe 1 (Ethereum): Began on July 30, 2015, at 03:26:13 PM UTC.
  • Universe 8453 (Base): Started on June 15, 2023, at 12:35:47 AM UTC.

Before the singularity, there is no concept of time, space, elements, objects, or laws. The singularity represents the moment from which time and space begin to expand, and the first element—typically the native token—comes into existence.
