    ## The beacon clock represents time as it passes on a beacon chain. Beacon
    ## time is locked to unix time, starting at a particular offset set during
    ## beacon chain instantiation.
    ##
    ## Time on the beacon chain determines what actions should be taken and
    ## which blocks are valid - in particular, blocks are not valid if they
    ## come from the future as seen from the local clock.
