比特币（BTC）的供应几乎被15年前击中比特币的错误增加到2000亿BTC

区块链协议工程师兼企业家扎克·科尔（Zak Cole）发表了X帖，以提醒加密货币社区，尤其是比特币，介绍了15年前袭击比特币的主要错误，将其总供应量提高到了近2000亿BTC。

Zak Cole, a blockchain protocol engineer and entrepreneur, took to X to post a message reminding the crypto community, and especially Bitcoiners, of a major bug that hit Bitcoin 15 years ago, boosting its total supply to almost 200 billion BTC.

区块链协议工程师兼企业家扎克·科尔（Zak Cole）发表了一条消息，提醒了加密货币社区，尤其是比特币，涉及15年前撞击比特币的主要错误，将其总供应量提高到了近2000亿btc。

According to Cole, the community managed to save Bitcoin from that flaw, which makes it more important than the initial code hit by a bug.

根据科尔的说法，社区设法将比特币从该缺陷中节省了下来，这使其比被错误击中的初始代码更重要。

Back in 2010, on August 15, there was a bug in block 74638 that generated 184,467,440,737.09551616 Bitcoins for three different wallets. That amount exceeded the 21 million BTC supply intended by Satoshi Nakamoto 8,784x.

早在2010年8月15日，块74638中就有一个错误，产生了184,467,440,737.09551616比特币，用于三个不同的钱包。这笔数量超过了Nakamoto Satoshi 8,784X的2100万BTC供应。

Two of those wallets received 92.2 billion Bitcoins each.

这些钱包中的两个每个都收到922亿比特币。

That happened a year and a half after the Bitcoin launch on January 9, 2009. When it was noticed, within five hours, Satoshi Nakamoto and several other developers, including Jeff Garzik and Gavin Andresen, rolled out a new client version that contained a soft fork to prevent similar incidents in the future. At block 74691 all the nodes upgraded and the new chain overtook the old one.

这发生在2009年1月9日的比特币发布后一年半。在74691块上，所有节点升级，新链超过了旧链。

"Bitcoin broke today. A bug in Block 74638 created 184 billion BTC out of thin air. That’s not a typo. Two outputs of 92 billion BTC each slipped through because the code didn’t check for integer overflow. The system just accepted it. Bitcoin’s sacred 21 million…

“今天的比特币破裂了。街区74638中的一个错误创造了1840亿BTC。这不是错字。两个输出的两个输出为920亿BTC，每个都滑过了，因为代码没有检查整数溢出。

"A bug in Block 74638 created 184 billion BTC out of thin air. That’s not a typo. Two outputs of 92 billion BTC each slipped through because the code didn’t check for integer overflow. The system just accepted it. Bitcoin’s sacred 21 million monetary policy, a figment of the founders’ vision, was quickly evaporating.

“街区74638中的一个错误创造了1840亿个BTC。这不是错字。两个输出的920亿btc的两个输出都滑落了，因为该代码没有检查整数溢出。系统只是接受了它。比特币的圣经2100万个货币政策，创建者的愿景的数字，快速撤离。

"Had it continued for another 24 hours, the entire Bitcoin monetary policy would have been wiped out. The bug was spotted and a new client version was quickly deployed to fix it. A soft fork was performed at Block 74691, upgrading all the nodes and saving Bitcoin from total collapse.

“如果再持续24小时，将消除整个比特币货币政策。发现该错误并迅速部署了新的客户版本。

"No code is perfect. Only community can spot flaws and bugs and remove them timely. Countless hours went into building Bitcoin, but it was almost destroyed by a single bug. And it was a minor bug in a part of the code that had no bearing on the protocol’s economic properties.

“没有代码是完美的。只有社区才能发现缺陷和错误并及时删除它们。建造比特币的无数小时，但是它几乎被一个错误摧毁了。这在代码的一部分中是一个较小的错误，与协议的经济物业无关。

"Had it not been spotted, people would have continued using the old client and the buggy chain would have grown longer. The new client was quickly deployed, but the buggy one would have remained in the majority for a while.

“如果没有发现它，人们将继续使用旧客户，并且越野车的链条将会增加更长的时间。新客户很快就被部署了，但是大多数人都会持续一段时间。

"Bitcoin’s scarcity is not protected by code. It’s protected by people. The only reason Bitcoin didn’t die that day is because someone noticed. Bitcoin’s monetary policy was rescued, not by the protocol, but by the humans running it."

“比特币的稀缺性不受代码的保护。它受到人们的保护。那天比特币没有死的唯一原因是因为有人注意到。比特币的货币政策是被挽救的，不是由协议，而是由人类运行。”
