@mcc @whitequark Highly recommend you take a look at (and then steal) the NTP format:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_Time_Protocol
They also have a 128-bit version that seems... adequate:
"enough to resolve the amount of time it takes a photon to pass an electron at the speed of light. [...] enough to provide unambiguous time representation until the universe goes dim."
