Abstract

An example operation may include one or more of connecting, by a clock node, to a blockchain network comprised of a plurality of nodes, retrieving, by the clock node, a timestamp (Ts) of the clock node, acquiring, by the clock node, a time window (Tw) based on the Ts, reading, by the clock node, a current window (Cw) from a world state, determining, by the clock node, a gap as a difference between the Tw and the Cw, calculating, by the clock node, a clock fix value based on the gap, and adjusting a clock by a subtraction of the clock fix value from the Ts.
