During the board meeting (at 08:00), the researchers explain they can "only" transmit 1:50 hours into the past. A board member agrees, saying this is rather few, without any sarcasm. However, it's board members' jobs to find market applications for a company's products - and stock exchange traders pay significant amounts of money for the ability to receive information about changes in prices before their competitors do, even for current technology that only offers fractions of seconds of time advantage (as shown in El proyecto colibrí (2018)). Transmitting stock prices 1:50 hours into the past would be tremendously valuable.
