在今年的比特幣 2024 會議上,我多次被問到這一刻的亮點是什麼——噪音中的訊號是什麼
Despite being a major topic of conversation at Bitcoin 2024, I found myself struggling to pinpoint the standout moment of the conference. The sheer volume of activity made it difficult to keep up, and my role in supporting the event left me with little time to fully engage with the broader happenings. However, upon reflection, one presence that quietly stole the show was the Lightning Network.
儘管這是 Bitcoin 2024 的一個主要主題,但我發現自己很難確定這次會議的亮點時刻。活動量之大讓我很難跟上,而我在支持活動中的角色讓我幾乎沒有時間充分參與更廣泛的活動。然而,經過反思,閃電網路悄悄搶盡了風頭。
While its absence from the headlines might have concerned some, this felt different. Lightning has not only arrived but has matured beyond what any other scaling layer can claim. Largely unnoticed by the casual conference goer, the payment protocol has stealthily inserted itself into every piece of major Bitcoin infrastructure.
雖然它沒有出現在頭條新聞中可能會讓一些人感到擔憂,但這感覺有所不同。閃電網路不僅已經到來,而且已經成熟到超越任何其他擴展層所能聲稱的程度。支付協議已經悄悄地融入主要比特幣基礎設施的每個部分,而大多數參加會議的人基本上沒有註意到。
Most of the world's leading exchanges now support Lightning, with some running the largest nodes on the network. Its dollar-denominated capacity is at an all-time high and every operator I spoke with this week confirmed its rapidly improving reliability.
世界上大多數領先的交易所現在都支援閃電網絡,其中一些交易所運行網路上最大的節點。其以美元計價的容量處於歷史最高水平,本週與我交談的每個運營商都證實其可靠性正在迅速提高。
A recurring narrative during the event highlighted the protocol’s promises as a settlement network. Initially promoted as a retail payment solution, Lightning’s latest and biggest headways might be among businesses and institutions looking to satisfy liquidity needs. The vision, popularized notably by Jack Mallers at Strike, feels more concrete than ever, with infrastructure company Lightspark now at the forefront of these accomplishments.
活動期間反覆出現的敘述強調了該協議作為結算網絡的承諾。閃電網路最初是作為零售支付解決方案推廣的,其最新和最大的進展可能是在尋求滿足流動性需求的企業和機構中。這個願景尤其由 Strike 的 Jack Mallers 推廣,感覺比以往任何時候都更加具體,基礎設施公司 Lightspark 現在處於這些成就的最前沿。
Last Thursday, on the Nakamoto stage, Lightspark’s co-founder Christian Catalini argued for Lightning’s favorable position as a bridge between companies and various financial institutions.
上週四,在 Nakamoto 的舞台上,Lightspark 的聯合創始人 Christian Catalini 主張閃電網絡作為公司和各種金融機構之間的橋樑的有利地位。
“If you think about the challenge of moving value not just between a few countries but two hundred or more countries, every day, 24/7, with deep liquidity. There is only one asset, and that asset is bitcoin. It has regulatory clarity, it has on and off-ramps in pretty much every country around the globe. Now we can connect it all in an open way.”
「如果你想一想,不僅在幾個國家之間,而且在 200 多個國家之間,每天 24/7,透過深度流動性轉移價值所面臨的挑戰。只有一種資產,這種資產就是比特幣。它具有明確的監管規定,在全球幾乎每個國家都有入口和出口。現在我們可以以開放的方式將這一切連接起來。
Lightspark's recent announcement of its partnership with Latin America's banking giant Nubank clearly outlines the potential for existing firms to modernize their infrastructure using the Lightning network.
Lightspark 最近宣布與拉丁美洲銀行巨頭 Nubank 建立合作夥伴關係,明確概述了現有公司利用閃電網路實現基礎設施現代化的潛力。
Further strengthening the case of Lightning as a rail to connect the global economy, last week's release of Lightning Labs’ Taproot Asset protocol introduces yet another opportunity for the scaling layer to establish itself as the dominant value transfer protocol on the internet. Before Lightning can come for VISA, it might have to start by displacing SWIFT.
上週閃電實驗室發布的 Taproot Asset 協議進一步強化了閃電網路作為連接全球經濟的軌道的作用,為擴展層提供了另一個機會,使其成為互聯網上占主導地位的價值傳輸協議。在閃電網路取代 VISA 之前,它可能必須先取代 SWIFT。
On the payment front, the talk of the town in Nashville was the improvement in user experience brought about by the arrival of features like BOLT12.
在付款方面,納許維爾的熱門話題是 BOLT12 等功能的到來所帶來的用戶體驗的改善。
Years in the making, the payment protocol offers an intuitive way for users to receive Lightning payments without relying on unreliable, expiring invoices. It also paves a promising path toward improving users’ ability to receive payments offline, a major pain point of current implementations.
經過多年的開發,該支付協議為用戶提供了一種直觀的方式來接收閃電付款,而無需依賴不可靠、過期的發票。它還為提高用戶離線接收付款的能力鋪平了一條有希望的道路,這是目前實施的一個主要痛點。
BOLT12 achieves this through static, reusable offers that do not compromise receiver privacy. Combined with other innovations like DNS payment instructions, it is now possible to create human-readable Bitcoin addresses (e.g., alex@twelve.cash) that support different payment formats. Imagine using a single identifier to receive on-chain and Lightning payments regardless of your preferred standards. Twelve.cash, a standout project from this year’s conference hackathon, did a remarkable job in this direction, aiming to provide “a simple way to share your bitcoin payment info with the world.”
BOLT12 透過靜態、可重複使用的優惠來實現這一目標,且不會損害接收者的隱私。結合 DNS 支付指令等其他創新,現在可以建立支援不同支付格式的人類可讀的比特幣地址(例如 alex@twelve.cash)。想像一下,無論您首選的標準如何,都使用單一識別碼來接收鏈上和閃電付款。 Twelve.cash 是今年會議黑客馬拉鬆的一個傑出項目,它在這個方向上做得非常出色,旨在提供「一種與世界分享比特幣支付資訊的簡單方法」。
Other forms of human-readable addresses have existed for some time using the LNURL format but the hope is for users to converge on more mature solutions. Long-time Lightning infrastructure provider Amboss also announced during the event a new Lightning wallet supporting a novel, multi-asset payment system they’ve called “MIBAN”.
使用 LNURL 格式的其他形式的人類可讀地址已經存在了一段時間,但希望用戶能夠集中在更成熟的解決方案上。長期的閃電基礎設施提供商 Amboss 還在活動期間宣布了一款新的閃電錢包,支援他們稱之為「MIBAN」的新型多資產支付系統。
Fragmentation between standards and compatibility issues is anticipated in open and permissionless financial systems. Lightning is further than any alternative in terms of optimizing around these interoperability challenges to ensure seamless payment experiences.
在開放和無需許可的金融系統中,預計會出現標準和相容性問題之間的碎片化。在圍繞這些互通性挑戰進行優化以確保無縫支付體驗方面,閃電網路比任何替代方案都更進一步。
BOLT12 is currently supported by leading wallets like Phoenix and ZEUS, and could land on the Strike app soon. Following Bitcoin Park’s Lightning Summit around the same time last year, I remember feeling pretty disillusioned about the prospects of consumer Lightning apps. What a difference a year makes.
BOLT12 目前已獲得 Phoenix 和 ZEUS 等領先錢包的支持,並可能很快登陸 Strike 應用程式。去年大約同一時間,在比特幣公園的閃電峰會之後,我記得我對消費者閃電應用程式的前景感到非常失望。一年的變化有多大啊。
While a fully non-custodial experience might always command a premium, new optimizations and different security models are emerging that can meet retail users where they are.
雖然完全非託管體驗可能總是需要溢價,但新的最佳化和不同的安全模型正在出現,可以滿足零售用戶的需求。
This progress, at every level, would not be possible without the momentous efforts that have gone into infrastructure work over the last couple of years.
如果沒有過去幾年在基礎建設方面的巨大努力,就不可能在各個層面取得這項進展。
Lightspark, which supports Lightning integration for other industry giants like Coinbase and Bitso, is powered by Spiral’s Lightning Development Kit (LDK). Recently announced Alby Hub is also the first production wallet deployed using the LDK node library. Keep in mind LDK has been in the works for almost four years now. Good things take time. Many people I spoke to during the conference expect the scope and quality of projects to be deployed using this toolkit to significantly accelerate.
Lightspark 由 Spiral 的閃電開發套件 (LDK) 提供支持,支援 Coinbase 和 Bitso 等其他行業巨頭的閃電整合。最近發布的 Alby Hub 也是第一個使用 LDK 節點庫部署的生產錢包。請記住,LDK 的研發工作已經將近四年了。好東西需要時間。我在會議期間採訪過的許多人都希望使用此工具包部署的專案的範圍和品質能夠顯著加快。
