Real-time efficiency denotes the capability of a system to complete operations instantly or with minimal delay. Within blockchain and digital asset systems, this refers to the speed and effectiveness with which transactions are processed, validated, and finalized on a network. It concerns the latency between initiating an action and its confirmed execution, impacting user experience and the viability of various applications. High real-time efficiency is a critical attribute for payment systems, decentralized exchanges, and applications requiring rapid data processing.
