Arweave (AR) 本週透過將其創世塊發送到月球（字面意思！）來創造歷史

月球穩定的環境被認為是長期保存資料的理想地點，因為它不受地球風化和自然幹擾的影響。

Arweave (AR) is making history this week by sending its Genesis Block to the moon (literally!), stored in an innovative synthetic DNA format.

Arweave (AR) 本週創造了歷史，將其創世塊發送到月球（名副其實！），並以創新的合成 DNA 格式儲存。

The data will be housed in a metal pyramid aboard a lunar lander, a collaboration between molecular storage company Iridia and space exploration firm LifeShip, according to a press release on January 15.

據 1 月 15 日發布的新聞稿稱，這些數據將保存在分子儲存公司 Iridia 和太空探索公司 LifeShip 合作的月球登陸器上的金屬金字塔中。

The moon's stable environment is said to be ideal for long-term data preservation, being free from Earth's weathering and natural disturbances.

據說月球穩定的環境非常適合長期保存數據，不受地球風化和自然幹擾的影響。

The Genesis Block's storage system combines Iridia's shielded nanotechnology with synthetic DNA storage techniques, which offer advantages in data density and longevity while consuming minimal energy.

Genesis Block 的儲存系統將 Iridia 的屏蔽奈米技術與合成 DNA 儲存技術相結合，在數據密度和壽命方面具有優勢，同時消耗最少的能源。

“There is actually something pretty interesting here,” Arweave founder Sam Williams said in a statement.

「這裡實際上有一些非常有趣的東西，」Arweave 創始人 Sam Williams 在一份聲明中說。

[Obligatory 'going to moon' joke here]

[這裡一定有「登月」笑話]

But more seriously:

但更嚴重的是：

There is actually something pretty interesting here.

這裡實際上有一些非常有趣的東西。

Short post about DePIN incentive models and innovation 👇

關於 DePIN 激勵模式和創新的短文👇

Proof of work networks are permissionless and agnostic buyers of resources. Bitcoin buys SHA2-256 hashes, and Ethereum buys anything that can be used to perform computation on a EVM.

工作證明網路是無需許可且不可知的資源買家。比特幣購買 SHA2-256 哈希值，以太幣購買任何可用於在 EVM 上執行計算的東西。

This makes PoW networks a very interesting tool for driving innovation.

這使得 PoW 網路成為推動創新的非常有趣的工具。

For example, if there is a new cryptographic primitive that is discovered, it can immediately be sold to Bitcoin or Ethereum miners, who will use it to secure the network.

例如，如果發現了一種新的加密原語，它可以立即出售給比特幣或以太坊礦工，他們將使用它來保護網路。

This creates a strong incentive for cryptographers to work on new primitives that are not only interesting from a theoretical perspective, but also have a practical use case.

這極大地激勵了密碼學家研究新的原語，這些原語不僅從理論角度有趣，而且具有實際用例。

The same applies to any other technology that can be used by PoW networks. For example, a new energy efficient cooling technology could quickly be sold to Bitcoin or Ethereum miners.

這同樣適用於 PoW 網路可以使用的任何其他技術。例如，一種新的節能冷卻技術可以很快出售給比特幣或以太坊礦工。

This is in contrast to, say, closed networks like Polkadot, where new technologies have to be approved by the Polkadot council before they can be used by the network.

這與 Polkadot 等封閉網路形成鮮明對比，在這種網路中，新技術必須經過 Polkadot 理事會的批准才能在網路中使用。

Or in contrast to networks that claim to be permissionless but actually aren't, like Solana, where new technologies have to be approved by the Solana Foundation before they can be used by the network.

或與那些聲稱無需許可但實際上並非如此的網絡形成鮮明對比，例如 Solana，新技術必須經過 Solana 基金會的批准才能在網絡中使用。

This makes sense from a security perspective. But it also stifles innovation.

從安全角度來看，這是有道理的。但這也扼殺了創新。

If you want to drive innovation, you need a permissionless and agnostic buyer of resources. And that's what PoW networks provide.

如果你想推動創新，你需要一個無需許可且不可知的資源買家。這就是 PoW 網路所提供的。

Meanwhile, AR has gained 7% in the past 24 hours. However, it has not seen the same returns as other altcoins over the past year.

與此同時，AR 在過去 24 小時內上漲了 7%。然而，在過去的一年裡，它並沒有看到與其他山寨幣相同的回報。

While it is up 68% from last year, the past few months have seen it drop from US$48 in May 2024 to currently US$16.88.

雖然比去年增長了 68%，但在過去幾個月裡，它從 2024 年 5 月的 48 美元下降到目前的 16.88 美元。

Just ahead of the May 2024 local top, Arweave made waves with their ‘hyper parallel computer’.

就在 2024 年 5 月本地頂峰到來之前，Arweave 憑藉他們的“超級並行計算機”引起了轟動。

AO the Computer is designed to infinitely scale blockchains for enhanced computational capabilities. This could enable large language models, like AI-driven smart contracts, to operate directly on the blockchain, ensuring transparent and verifiable execution without a central authority.

AO 計算機旨在無限擴展區塊鏈以增強運算能力。這可以使大型語言模型（例如人工智慧驅動的智慧合約）能夠直接在區塊鏈上運行，從而確保在沒有中央權威的情況下透明且可驗證的執行。

“We are building a hyper parallel computer that will push the boundaries of what's possible with blockchains,” Williams explained.

「我們正在建立一台超平行計算機，它將突破區塊鏈的可能性界限，」威廉斯解釋道。
