Charles Hoskinson 预测比特币将超越以太坊并成为 DeFi 之王

卡尔达诺最近宣布与 BitcoinOS 建立合作伙伴关系，BitcoinOS 是一个为 BTC 提供智能合约的平台。

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 与 BitcoinOS 的合作正在突破 DeFi 和跨链集成的界限。尽管比特币的市值巨大，但以太坊由于其智能合约仍然在去中心化应用程序中占据主导地位。然而，像 BitcoinOS 和跨链集成这样的解决方案正在为比特币上的 DeFi 开辟新的可能性。

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).

卡尔达诺最近与 BitcoinOS 的合作凸显了加密货币领域的叙事转变。十多年来，人们普遍认为比特币主要充当数字黄金和对冲通胀的工具。与此同时，以太坊处理了繁重的工作，例如去中心化应用程序（dApp）、不可替代代币（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，最近比特币发生了变化。它现在正在与以太坊、Solana 和其他智能合约平台竞争这些市场。

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创始人Charles Hoskinson一直淡化以太坊的长期统治地位，他认为BTC将超越所有竞争对手，成为DeFi之王。

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

Cardano 与 BitcoinOS 合作获取 BTC 流动性，为比特币上的 DeFi 铺平道路。

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 与 BitcoinOS 的合作是这两种加密货币之间一系列合作的最新进展。此次合作将允许 ADA 生态系统在不使用任何中介机构的情况下访问 1.3 美元的比特币网络。两者将使用 BOS Grail 桥，该桥在两个网络之间提供无需信任的连接。这将使卡尔达诺生态系统的 dApp 无需任何中介即可获得 BTC 流动性。

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

此次合作促使霍斯金森重新考虑他长期以来的主张，即从长远来看，以太坊不会在加密货币领域取得胜利。

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

他在 X 上写道：“比特币即将迎来 DeFi，它将让 Solana 和以太坊所做的一切相形见绌。”

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…

现在，比特币重新回归家庭并再次创新，感谢@BTC_OS，我将在 2025 年重新启动比特币教育项目，并制作新版本的课程。我们还将为比特币开发者准备艾肯教育，包括托管……

Bitcoin DeFi on Cardano.

卡尔达诺上的比特币 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.

截至发稿时，比特币的市值为 1.33 万亿美元，是第二名以太坊的四倍。但以太坊仍然主导着去中心化应用程序。

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，以太坊锁定的总价值为 472 亿美元，而 BTC 的锁定总价值仅为 21.84 亿美元，而且这还是仅在过去一个月就上涨了 150% 的情况。

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.

这种差异主要归因于比特币缺乏智能合约。 DeFi 需要智能合约，因为没有中介机构。十多年来，人们普遍认为 BTC 无法支持它们。然而，像 BitcoinOS 这样的解决方案正在证明开发人员可以在比特币上部署应用程序。

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 是比特币上非常受欢迎的 NFT 解决方案，甚至一度超越了以太坊 NFT，它的推出也让 BTC 所有者接触到了网络上的巨大可能性。

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，跨链整合很可能决定比特币 DeFi 的未来。虽然智能合约现在可以部署在网络上，但它仍然缓慢且成本高昂，并且改变这一点将需要进行大规模更改甚至分叉。

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，像卡尔达诺与 BitcoinOS 合作这样的解决方案为 BTC 所有者提供了最大的机会之一。正如 BitcoinOS 所解释的那样，这对山寨币和 BTC 来说是双赢的。

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.

山寨币现在可以使用比特币的安全性作为第 2 层解决方案。比特币在不改变其基本代码的情况下不断发展，而加密货币则在坚实的基础上获得了新技术。

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

BTC 以 67,000 美元易手，过去一天一直横盘整理。
