Charles Hoskinson 預測比特幣將超越以太坊並成為 DeFi 之王

卡爾達諾最近宣布與 BitcoinOS 建立合作夥伴關係，BitcoinOS 是一個為 BTC 提供智慧合約的平台。

Cardano’s partnership with BitcoinOS is pushing the boundaries of DeFi and cross-chain integration. Despite Bitcoin’s massive market cap, Ethereum still dominates decentralised applications due to its smart contracts. However, solutions like BitcoinOS and cross-chain integration are opening up new possibilities for DeFi on Bitcoin.

Cardano 與 BitcoinOS 的合作正在突破 DeFi 和跨鏈整合的界限。儘管比特幣的市值龐大，但以太坊由於其智能合約仍然在去中心化應用程式中佔據主導地位。然而，像 BitcoinOS 和跨鏈整合這樣的解決方案正在為比特幣上的 DeFi 開闢新的可能性。

Cardano’s recent partnership with BitcoinOS has highlighted the narrative shift in the cryptocurrency space. For over a decade, the common belief was that Bitcoin served primarily as digital gold and a hedge against inflation. Meanwhile, Ethereum handled the heavy lifting, such as decentralised applications (dApps), non-fungible tokens (NFTs), and decentralised finance (DeFi).

卡爾達諾最近與 BitcoinOS 的合作凸顯了加密貨幣領域的敘事轉變。十多年來，人們普遍認為比特幣主要充當數位黃金和對沖通貨膨脹的工具。同時，以太坊處理了繁重的工作，例如去中心化應用程式（dApp）、不可替代代幣（NFT）和去中心化金融（DeFi）。

However, recent times have seen Bitcoin changing. It is now competing with Ethereum, Solana, and other smart contract platforms for these markets.

然而，最近比特幣發生了變化。它現在正在與以太坊、Solana 和其他智慧合約平台競爭這些市場。

Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson, who has consistently downplayed Ethereum’s long-term dominance, believes that BTC will overtake all rivals and become the king of DeFi.

Cardano創辦人Charles Hoskinson一直淡化以太坊的長期統治地位，他認為BTC將超越所有競爭對手，成為DeFi之王。

Cardano Partners with BitcoinOS to Access BTC Liquidity, Pave Way for DeFi on Bitcoin.

Cardano 與 BitcoinOS 合作獲取 BTC 流動性，為比特幣上的 DeFi 鋪路。

Cardano’s partnership with BitcoinOS is the latest development in a string of collaborations between the two cryptocurrencies. The partnership will allow the ADA ecosystem to access the $1.3 Bitcoin network without using any intermediaries. The two will use the BOS Grail bridge, which provides a trustless connection between the two networks. This will allow Cardano ecosystem dApps to access BTC liquidity without any intermediaries.

Cardano 與 BitcoinOS 的合作是這兩種加密貨幣之間一系列合作的最新進展。此次合作將允許 ADA 生態系統在不使用任何中介機構的情況下存取 1.3 美元的比特幣網路。兩者將使用 BOS Grail 橋，該橋在兩個網路之間提供無需信任的連接。這將使卡爾達諾生態系統的 dApp 無需任何中介即可獲得 BTC 流動性。

The partnership has prompted Hoskinson to reconsider his long-held assertion that Ethereum will not emerge victorious in crypto over the long term.

這項合作促使霍斯金森重新考慮他長期以來的主張，即從長遠來看，以太坊不會在加密貨幣領域取得勝利。

“DeFi is coming to Bitcoin, and it will dwarf anything Solana and Ethereum have done,” he wrote on X.

他在 X 上寫道：“比特幣即將迎來 DeFi，它將讓 Solana 和以太坊所做的一切相形見絀。”

Now that Bitcoin's back in the family and innovating again, thanks to @BTC_OS, I will re-launch the Bitcoin Education Project in 2025 and produce a new edition of my course. We are also going to prepare Aiken education for Bitcoin developers, including hosting on…

現在，比特幣重新回歸家庭並再次創新，感謝@BTC_OS，我將在 2025 年重新啟動比特幣教育項目，並製作新版本的課程。我們還將為比特幣開發者準備艾肯教育，包括託管…

Bitcoin DeFi on Cardano.

卡爾達諾上的比特幣 DeFi。

Bitcoin’s market cap at press time was $1.33 trillion, rendering it four times higher than that of second-placed Ethereum. But Ethereum still dominates decentralised applications.

截至發稿時，比特幣的市值為 1.33 兆美元，是第二名以太坊的四倍。但以太坊仍然主導著去中心化應用程式。

For instance, the total value locked on Ethereum stands at $47.2 billion, while BTC only has $2.184 billion, and this was only after a 150% rise in the past month alone.

例如，以太坊鎖定的總價值為 472 億美元，而 BTC 的鎖定總價值僅為 21.84 億美元，而且這還是僅在過去一個月就上漲了 150% 的情況。

This disparity is primarily attributed to Bitcoin’s lack of smart contracts. DeFi necessitates smart contracts as there are no intermediaries. It was widely assumed for over a decade that BTC couldn’t support them. However, solutions like BitcoinOS are demonstrating that developers can deploy applications on Bitcoin.

這種差異主要歸因於比特幣缺乏智能合約。 DeFi 需要智能合約，因為沒有中介機構。十多年來，人們普遍認為 BTC 無法支援它們。然而，像 BitcoinOS 這樣的解決方案正在證明開發人員可以在比特幣上部署應用程式。

The launch of Ordinals, the immensely popular NFT solutions on Bitcoin that even surpassed Ethereum NFTs at one point, has also exposed BTC owners to the vast possibilities on the network.

Ordinals 是比特幣上非常流行的 NFT 解決方案，甚至一度超越了以太坊 NFT，它的推出也讓 BTC 所有者接觸到了網路上的巨大可能性。

Cross-chain integration, however, is likely to determine the future of DeFi on Bitcoin. While smart contracts can now be deployed on the network, it is still slow and costly, and altering this would necessitate a massive change or even a fork.

然而，跨鏈整合很可能決定比特幣 DeFi 的未來。雖然智慧合約現在可以部署在網路上，但它仍然緩慢且成本高昂，並且改變這一點將需要進行大規模更改甚至分叉。

Hence, solutions like Cardano’s partnership with BitcoinOS present one of the greatest opportunities for BTC owners. It’s a win-win for both the altcoins and BTC, as BitcoinOS explained.

因此，像卡爾達諾與 BitcoinOS 合作這樣的解決方案為 BTC 所有者提供了最大的機會之一。正如 BitcoinOS 所解釋的那樣，這對山寨幣和 BTC 來說是雙贏的。

Altcoins can now use Bitcoin's security as a Layer 2 solution. Bitcoin evolves without changing its base code, and crypto gets new tech on solid ground.

山寨幣現在可以使用比特幣的安全性作為第 2 層解決方案。比特幣在不改變其基本程式碼的情況下不斷發展，而加密貨幣則在堅實的基礎上獲得了新技術。

BTC changes hands at $67,000 and has traded sideways in the past day.

BTC 以 67,000 美元易手，過去一天一直橫盤整理。
