假名社交網路的興起：從 Sealcaster 到謠言

假名的做法使人們能夠自由分享想法和真相，而不必擔心遭到報復。縱觀歷史，伏爾泰，

From the anonymous authors of The Federalist Papers laying the groundwork for democratic discourse to whistleblowers exposing global injustices like WikiLeaks, the practice of pseudonymity has enabled people to freely share ideas and truths without fear of retaliation. Throughout history, Voltaire, Publius, Mark Twain (Samuel Clemens), George Eliot (Mary Ann Evans), Satoshi Nakamoto, and countless others have furthered the spread of ideas through pseudonyms.

從《聯邦黨人文集》的匿名作者為民主話語奠定了基礎，到像維基解密這樣揭露全球不公正現象的舉報人，假名的做法使人們能夠自由地分享想法和真相，而不必擔心遭到報復。縱觀歷史，伏爾泰、普布利烏斯、馬克吐溫（山繆克萊門斯飾）、喬治艾略特（瑪麗安艾文斯飾）、中本聰以及無數其他人透過化名進一步傳播了思想。

Zero-Knowledge (ZK) Proofs

零知識（ZK）證明

Zero Knowledge Proofs is a groundbreaking cryptographic technology that enables one party to prove to another party that they possess certain information without revealing the specific information itself. For instance, you could prove that you meet the age requirement to enter a venue without showing the full personal information on your ID card. This technology ensures the confirmation of key facts (such as age) while safeguarding other private data.

零知識證明是一種突破性的密碼技術，使一方能夠向另一方證明他們擁有某些信息，而無需透露特定信息本身。例如，您可以證明您符合進入場所的年齡要求，而無需出示身分證上的完整個人資訊。此技術可確保關鍵事實（例如年齡）的確認，同時保護其他私人資料。

In traditional platforms, users are typically required to submit personal data, which is centrally stored in servers and vulnerable to being leaked or misused. Zero-knowledge proofs alter this paradigm, allowing users to verify credentials or asset ownership without disclosing personal information, thus greatly enhancing privacy protection capabilities.

在傳統平台中，用戶通常需要提交個人數據，這些數據集中儲存在伺服器中，很容易被洩露或濫用。零知識證明改變了這種範式，允許用戶在不洩露個人資訊的情況下驗證憑證或資產所有權，從而大大增強隱私保護能力。

Genesis

創世紀

Sealcaster is the first zero-knowledge application built on the Farcaster protocol, developed by Big Whale Labs. Its development team includes Nikita Kolmogorov (borodutch), Jason Kim and other members. They use Circom (a programming language designed for zero-knowledge circuits) to generate proofs, enabling users to complete identity verification without revealing personal information. Through Circom's constraints and signaling mechanisms, Sealcaster is able to verify the authenticity of user credentials while protecting their privacy.

Sealcaster 是第一個基於 Farcaster 協議構建的零知識應用程序，由 Big Whale Labs 開發。其開發團隊包括Nikita Kolmogorov（borodutch）、Jason Kim等成員。他們使用Circom（一種專為零知識電路設計的程式語言）來產生證明，使用戶能夠在不洩露個人資訊的情況下完成身份驗證。透過 Circcom 的約束和訊號機制，Seacaster 能夠驗證使用者憑證的真實性，同時保護使用者的隱私。

Sealcaster is among several zero-knowledge products launched by Big Whale Labs, including:

Sealcaster 是 Big Whale Labs 推出的幾款零知識產品之一，包括：

As one of the first practical zero-knowledge projects on the Farcaster protocol, Sealcaster demonstrates the vast potential for privacy protection and verifiable communications on decentralized platforms.

作為 Farcaster 協議上首批實用的零知識項目之一，Seacaster 展示了去中心化平台上隱私保護和可驗證通訊的巨大潛力。

Superanon

超陰離子

As the Farcaster community continued to grow, an advanced user client called supercast (founded by woj and later renamed super) gradually formed a user group and gave rise to superanon.

隨著 Farcaster 社群的不斷壯大，一個名為 supercast（由 woj 創建，後來更名為 super）的高級用戶用戶端逐漸形成了用戶群體，並催生了 superanon。

Supercast is a paid client that caters mainly to advanced users. It supports posting content from multiple accounts and enables users to operate anonymously using superanon.

Supercast 是一款主要針對高級用戶的付費用戶端。它支援從多個帳戶發佈內容，並允許用戶使用 superanon 進行匿名操作。

ANON

安能

Within the Farcaster community, the AI-driven token launcher CLANKER has facilitated the creation of over 10,000 tokens, with a cumulative transaction volume of $1 billion and millions of dollars paid out to creators. One day, a superanon user anonymously created a token called $ANON while woj was sleeping, reflecting the permissionless characteristics of the operation.

在 Farcaster 社群內，人工智慧驅動的代幣啟動器 CLANKER 已協助創建了超過 10,000 個代幣，累計交易量達 10 億美元，並向創建者支付了數百萬美元。有一天，一位 superanon 用戶在 woj 睡覺時匿名創建了一個名為 $ANON 的代幣，體現了該操作的無需許可的特徵。

When Woj woke up, he officially launched the $anon Token (no capitalization) as a support tool for the superanon account and distributed the donated $ANON to all supercast users via airdrops.

當Woj醒來時，他正式推出了$anon代幣（無大寫）作為superanon帳戶的支援工具，並將捐贈的$ANON透過空投分發給所有supercast用戶。

Following this, developer slokh (who previously developed the nook client) built a platform called anoncast.org, which enables users to post content anonymously as long as they hold $ANON.

隨後，開發者 slokh（先前開發了 nook 用戶端）建立了一個名為 anoncast.org 的平台，用戶只要持有 $ANON 就可以匿名發佈內容。

The platform combines Noir and Rust technologies, and its open source code has attracted many developers to iterate and experiment, opening up new possibilities for the future of anonymous social networks.

該平台結合了 Noir 和 Rust 技術，其開源程式碼吸引了許多開發者迭代和實驗，為匿名社交網路的未來開闢了新的可能性。

In addition to constant feature updates and optimizations, such as allowing users to reveal that they are the author of a popular content at a later time, Farcaster's features have also attracted many well-known users, including Vitalik and Jesse Pollack. It is worth mentioning that 0xLuo is the creator of the feature on the right.

除了不斷的功能更新和優化，例如允許用戶稍後透露自己是某個熱門內容的作者，Farcaster 的功能也吸引了許多知名用戶，包括 Vitalik 和 Jesse Pollack。值得一提的是，0xLuo是右邊這個特徵的創造者。

33Bits

33位

33bits.xyz was an experimental platform that was limited to users with FID numbers below 20,000, the early adopters of Farcaster. The tool was built by developers Kugusha and Sergey. To expand access, they later launched 66bits.xyz, which not only provided access to more users but also added additional features for token holders.

33bits.xyz 是一個實驗平台，僅限 FID 數量低於 20,000 的用戶，即 Farcaster 的早期採用者。該工具由開發人員 Kugusha 和 Sergey 建造。為了擴大存取範圍，他們後來推出了 66bits.xyz，它不僅為更多用戶提供了存取權限，還為代幣持有者添加了額外的功能。

Rumours

謠言

Developed by Disky and Leovido, rumourcast.xyz is a Farcaster protocol based client that builds upon the popular Anon Cast but adds some unique innovations.

rumourcast.xyz 由 Disky 和 ​​Leovido 開發，是一個基於 Farcaster 協議的客戶端，它建立在流行的 Anon Cast 之上，但添加了一些獨特的創新。

As long as users hold enough supporting tokens, they can publish content as anonymous accounts. Future development plans include:

只要用戶持有足夠的支援代幣，就可以以匿名帳戶的身份發佈內容。未來的發展計畫包括：

Frames V2 integration: Enhance the user interaction experience by creating unique frame functions.

Frames V2 整合：透過創建獨特的框架功能來增強使用者互動體驗。

NFT Minting: Supports the casting of rumor content into collectible NFTs, and may be combined with prediction market functions to add more interactivity and value to the content.

NFT鑄造：支持將謠言內容鑄造成可收藏的NFT，並可與預測市場功能結合，為內容增加更多的互動性和價值。

RumourAI Agent: Uses AI technology to expand and optimize rumor content, adding more depth and creativity to each release.

RumourAI Agent：利用AI技術擴展和優化謠言內容，為每次發布增添更多深度和創造力。

The iteration of these functions is ongoing and the future is worth looking forward to.

這些功能的迭代正在進行中，未來值得期待。

Pseudonym Economy

筆名經濟

A wholesale shift to a completely financialized pseudonymous framework risks ignoring the complexity of human social interactions. However, the real potential lies not in absolute anonymity but in building diverse and complex identity models.

全面轉向完全金融化的匿名框架可能會忽略人類社會互動的複雜性。然而，真正的潛力不在於絕對匿名，而是建立多樣化和複雜的身份模型。

These online and on-chain social experiments provide users with a special space where individuals can build reputations, share insights, and collaborate without revealing their true identities, thereby

這些線上和鏈上的社會實驗為使用者提供了一個特殊的空間，個人可以在其中建立聲譽、分享見解和協作，而無需透露自己的真實身份，從而
