盧加諾揭幕紀念比特幣創始人中本聰的雕像

瑞士盧加諾市最近揭開了一座紀念比特幣創始人中本聰 (Satoshi Nakamoto) 的雕像。

The city of Lugano in Switzerland has unveiled a statue honoring Satoshi Nakamoto, the pseudonymous founder of Bitcoin (BTC).

瑞士盧加諾市為紀念比特幣（BTC）匿名創始人中本聰（Satoshi Nakamoto）的雕像揭幕。

According to a blog post by Tether on Friday, the statue was created in collaboration with the Plan B network and the City of Lugano. It was unveiled at the Lugano Villa Ciani during the 2024 Plan B Lugano forum.

根據 Tether 週五發布的部落格文章，這座雕像是與 Plan B 網路和盧加諾市合作創建的。它在 2024 年盧加諾 B 計劃論壇期間在盧加諾 Villa Ciani 揭幕。

The monument depicts Nakamoto's anonymity, showing a figure sitting with legs crossed, a covered face, and what looks like a personal computer. The perspective changes as the viewer moves, making the statue appear to vanish from some angles.

紀念碑描繪了中本聰的匿名形象，其中有一個人盤腿而坐，臉被遮住，還有一個看起來像個人電腦的東西。隨著觀眾的移動，視角也會發生變化，使得雕像從某些角度看起來似乎消失了。

Tether's CEO Paolo Ardoino said the statue serves as a tribute to Satoshi Nakamoto's contribution to the global financial system and their initiative to hand over their vision to the community.

Tether 執行長 Paolo Ardoino 表示，這座雕像是對中本聰對全球金融體系的貢獻以及他們將願景移交給社區的倡議的致敬。

Lugano has become a hub for Bitcoin adoption since it began accepting BTC, Tether’s stablecoin USDT, and the city token LVGA as legal tender in March 2022. Lugano and El Salvador are among the few entities to adopt cryptocurrencies in this capacity.

自2022 年3 月開始接受BTC、Tether 穩定幣USDT 和城市代幣LVGA 作為法定貨幣以來，盧加諾已成為比特幣採用的中心。之一。

In December 2023, the City of Lugano also adopted Bitcoin and USDT as means of paying taxes and municipal fees. This move could pave the way for cities and public entities to integrate cryptocurrencies into their financial systems.

2023 年 12 月，盧加諾市也採用比特幣和 USDT 作為繳稅和市政費用的方式。此舉可能為城市和公共實體將加密貨幣整合到其金融系統中鋪平道路。

Satoshi Nakamoto's status, according to Lugano Mayor Michele Foletti, reflects the city's goal of becoming a leading center for digital innovation. He added that Lugano was honored to host the Plan B conference and unveil a lasting tribute to the pseudonymous Bitcoin founder.

盧加諾市長 Michele Foletti 表示，中本聰的地位反映了該市成為領先數位創新中心的目標。他補充說，盧加諾很榮幸能夠主辦 B 計畫會議，並向這位化名的比特幣創始人致以持久的敬意。
