1/ It's increasingly looking like 2019 will be the year of the crypto intranet (or permissioned blockchains, or bankcoins and corporatecoins), whatever you want to call them.
1/2019年,越来越有可能,成为加密内部网之年(或者叫联盟链之年、银行币或者公司币之年),不管是哪种叫法,反正都是这个意思。
2/ JPMcoin, facebookcoin, etc, are certainly inherently uninteresting to those of us interested in censorship resistance, seizure resistance, depreciation resistance, and self-sovereign money. They will produce some confusion and annoying article headlines by journalists.
2/对于我们这些人来说,"JPMcoin"、"脸书币" 等本质上肯定都毫无吸引力---因为我们对抗审查、抗扣押、抗折旧且拥有自主权的货币感兴趣。而诸如"JPMcoin"、"脸书币" 之类的币,则会被记者们用来制造混乱和一堆令人讨厌的“头条新闻”。
3/ But....it's awesome for Bitcoin and other decentralized permissionless cryptocurrencies. Things like Facebookcoin increase global interest dramatically. Consider how carpet stores in NYC are all located right next to each other. They're not hurt by competition, they benefit.
3 /但....这些币的产生,对比特币和其他去中心化的无权加密货币来说,是个好消息。 脸书币之类的东西会大大增加全球对加密货币的兴趣。就好比,纽约的地毯商店彼此相邻,但他们并不受竞争的伤害,反而会彼此受益。
4/ Let's say 300 million people adopt facebookcoin, and 1 in 10 of those stumbles across bitcoin as they explore it. That doubles the number of bitcoin users, increasing the pace of adoption, the network effects, and the value of the bitcoin network.
4 /我们假设有3亿人使用脸书币,而在这些人中,假设有十分之一的人,在探索过程中偶然发现了比特币。 这就使比特币用户的数量增加了一倍,从而增加了比特币的采用速度、网络效应和比特币网络的价值。
5/ And things like facebookcoin will produce a whole ecosystem of services and infrastructure around it, much of which will be able to be used directly or indirectly by permissionless cryptocurrencies.
5 /像脸书币这类币,会围绕它本身构建一套完整的服务和基础设施生态系统,而这个生态系统中的大部分内容,其实都可以被无权加密货币直接或间接使用。
6/ this is similar to how a US regulated Bitcoin ETF benefits Venezuelan refugees indirectly by providing more liquidity and incentives to build Bitcoin ATMs in every major city that refugees can then make use of.
6 /这就类似于,受美国监管的比特币ETF,其实可以间接地给委内瑞拉难民带来好处:ETF通过提供更多的流动性和激励措施来鼓励各大城市安装比特币ATM机,以便难民使用。
7/ There was very little investment in things like Bitcoin custody, hardware wallets, key abstraction, educational materials, etc until 2017, because it was simply a small market. This is a rising tide that will lift all boats.
7 /直到2017年,相关机构在比特币托管、硬件钱包、公私钥关键词、教育材料等方面的投资还很少,因为加密市场只是一个小市场。 现在,涨潮了,所有的船都会被抬升。
8/ Instead of having to explain from scratch what a cryptocurrency is and why it's interesting, now we get to tell legions of already interested people why bitcoin is better than facebookcoin for many things. We'll have an eager instead of reluctant audience.
8 /相比于(以前)我们必须从头开始解释“加密货币是什么”以及“它为什么有趣”,现在,我们只需要告诉已经感兴趣的人们“比特币为什么在很多方面都比脸书币好”。 我们的听众现在会是求知若渴的,而不是不情不愿的。
9/ it's way easier to point out critical flaws in a well followed things and why there's a great alternative, than to generate interest from scratch.
9 /与从头培养人们的兴趣相比,这样做更容易:指出一个广受关注的事物中的关键缺陷,并说明为什么有一个更好的替代品。
