在今年的奧斯陸自由論壇上,gigabrain Lyn Alden 提出比特幣現在的流動性足以用於人權領域
Gigabrain Lyn Alden made the case at this year's Oslo Freedom Forum that bitcoin is now liquid enough to serve a human rights function, an argument that I found compelling and with which I agree.
Gigabrain Lyn Alden 在今年的奧斯陸自由論壇上提出,比特幣現在的流動性足以發揮人權功能,我認為這一論點令人信服,我也同意。
Bitcoin, which now has a market cap of over $1.2 trillion, is less volatile than it was a decade ago and can now more readily be used to help empower those who’ve historically been financially disenfranchised. (The larger an asset's market cap, the less volatile the price of the asset tends to become. When bitcoin had a much lower market cap in its early days, it wasn’t uncommon to see it lose over 80% of its value in crashes. For this reason, it would have been much harder to use it in a human rights context back then.)
比特幣目前的市值已超過 1.2 兆美元,與十年前相比,其波動性較小,現在可以更容易地用於幫助那些歷史上被剝奪經濟權利的人。 (資產的市值越大,資產價格的波動性就越小。當比特幣早期的市值低得多時,在崩盤中損失超過 80% 價值的情況並不罕見因此,當時在人權背景下使用它會困難得多。
Here are some examples of how Bitcoin is currently being used for human rights purposes:
以下是比特幣目前如何用於人權目的的一些範例:
The work that these people, programs and institutions and the many others like them have done during the previous Bitcoin epoch has set the stage for the Empowerment Epoch — Bitcoin’s fifth epoch, the one in which it will become synonymous with the term “human rights.”
這些人、專案和機構以及許多其他類似的人在上一個比特幣時代所做的工作為賦權時代奠定了基礎——比特幣的第五個時代,在這個時代,比特幣將成為“人權”一詞的代名詞。
That said, this will not come without challenges.
也就是說,這不會沒有挑戰。
High fees on the Bitcoin base chain will price certain users out of self-custody, pushing them to use Layer 2 solutions like Lightning and extensions of Lightning like ecash, non-traceable versions of sats that can be sent at almost no cost.
比特幣基礎鏈上的高額費用將使某些用戶失去自我託管權,迫使他們使用第2 層解決方案,如閃電網路和閃電網路的擴展,如ecash、不可追蹤的sat 版本,幾乎可以免費發送。
Companies like Fedi have developed a super app for the Global South that gives users access to Lightning, ecash and other freedom tech, while Machankura enables residents of various African countries to transact with bitcoin in a custodial manner using feature phones (non-smart phones). (Machankura is also working on turning feature phones into Bitcoin hardware wallets.)
Fedi 等公司為南半球國家開發了一款超級應用程序,讓用戶可以訪問閃電網絡、電子現金和其他自由技術,而Machankura 則使非洲各國的居民能夠使用功能手機(非智能手機)以託管方式進行比特幣交易。 (Machankura 也致力於將功能手機轉變為比特幣硬體錢包。)
Layer 2 solutions will not be perfect and there will be tradeoffs with each of them. But even considering the imperfections of the technologies that make bitcoin more usable, they still provide many around the world with access to a parallel financial system, serving as a hedge to the existing monetary and financial systems.
第 2 層解決方案不會是完美的,並且每個解決方案都需要權衡。但即使考慮到使比特幣更實用的技術有缺陷,它們仍然為世界各地的許多人提供了進入平行金融體系的機會,作為對現有貨幣和金融體系的對沖。
As new challenges arise, I have little doubt that organizations like the Human Rights Foundation will continue to bring activists and educators together with developers and entrepreneurs to meet these challenges and to help bring bitcoin — the people’s money — to those who need it most in this, the Empowerment Epoch.
隨著新挑戰的出現,我毫不懷疑像人權基金會這樣的組織將繼續將活動人士和教育工作者與開發人員和企業家聚集在一起,應對這些挑戰,並幫助將比特幣——人民的錢-帶給那些最需要它的人。
