Interstellar 'biomes' would operate on much slower clocks. Human perception time-scale of ~1s is mandated by fast-paced ecosystem of our gravity well. Maybe we just not had enough continuous data in ~50 yrs ~ 10e10s to recognise intersystem channel modulation as such. Economy cycle phase shift across the civilized area cant be much bigger than cycle duration, so for inter-system distances of ~1 ly we are looking at 10^6 years (1 a.u. @ 1 year financial year for humans right now). Any real economy involving Mars will already showcase the need for much slower finance clocks and longer plans than we have in current economy. I guess cryptocurrency clocks will split into temporal tiers according to systems served by that time.
