Time Bound Commitment

Definition

A Time Bound Commitment refers to an agreement or obligation within a blockchain protocol that must be fulfilled or maintained for a specific duration. This mechanism often involves locking up assets or performing a service for a predetermined period to receive rewards or maintain certain network privileges. Failure to adhere to the time constraint can result in penalties or loss of benefits. Such commitments are fundamental for securing proof-of-stake networks and decentralized applications.
