亦来云推出 BIT 指数，凸显全球比特币意识和采用情况，尼日利亚引领潮流

亦来云发布的首个 BIT 指数（比特币；创新与信任）揭示了对比特币全球认知和使用情况的见解。值得注意的是，尼日利亚等新兴市场的使用率领先，有 23% 的受访者每天使用比特币，明显高于德国 (8%) 和英国 (9%) 等成熟市场。此外，67% 的尼日利亚人比传统服务更信任比特币来保护他们的储蓄，这反映出“南半球”越来越多地采用去中心化货币。

Nigerian Consumers Emerge as Leaders in Bitcoin Adoption and Trust

尼日利亚消费者成为比特币采用和信任的领导者

Elastos, a leading Web3 infrastructure provider, has published groundbreaking research that sheds light on Bitcoin's real-world perception and usage patterns around the globe. The inaugural Bitcoin; Innovation & Trust (BIT) Index, compiled from over 1,400 self-identified "tech-savvy" respondents from seven countries, reveals significant insights into emerging markets' pivotal role in the adoption of decentralized currencies like Bitcoin.

领先的 Web3 基础设施提供商亦来云 (Elastos) 发布了开创性的研究成果，揭示了全球比特币在现实世界中的认知和使用模式。首个比特币；创新与信任 (BIT) 指数由来自 7 个国家的 1,400 多名自称“精通技术”的受访者编制而成，揭示了新兴市场在采用比特币等去中心化货币方面的关键作用的重要见解。

Nigerian Market Leading the Charge

尼日利亚市场引领潮流

Nigerian consumers are at the forefront of Bitcoin's adoption curve, demonstrating exceptional levels of usage, trust, and optimism. A remarkable 23% of respondents from Nigeria use Bitcoin daily, far exceeding the global average of 15%. In comparison, only 8% of German respondents and 9% of those in the UK report daily Bitcoin usage.

尼日利亚消费者处于比特币采用曲线的最前沿，表现出极高的使用率、信任度和乐观程度。高达 23% 的尼日利亚受访者每天使用比特币，远远超过 15% 的全球平均水平。相比之下，只有 8% 的德国受访者和 9% 的英国受访者报告每天使用比特币。

Nigerian consumers' confidence in Bitcoin is equally remarkable. A staggering 67% express greater trust in Bitcoin to protect their life savings than in traditional financial institutions such as banks, governments, or even cash. This sentiment aligns with the fact that one in five Nigerian consumers (20%) use Bitcoin to conduct transactions at least once a day.

尼日利亚消费者对比特币的信心同样引人注目。惊人的 67% 的人表示，与银行、政府等传统金融机构甚至现金相比，他们更信任比特币来保护他们的毕生积蓄。这种情绪与五分之一的尼日利亚消费者（20%）每天至少使用比特币进行一次交易的事实相符。

Emerging Markets Drive Adoption

新兴市场推动采用

The BIT Index highlights the growing prominence of emerging markets in shaping the decentralized economy. Brazilian and Emirati respondents also exhibit notable levels of trust in Bitcoin, with 35% and 32% expressing confidence in Bitcoin-based services to protect their life savings, respectively.

BIT 指数凸显了新兴市场在塑造去中心化经济方面日益突出的地位。巴西和阿联酋受访者也表现出对比特币的高度信任，分别有 35% 和 32% 的受访者表示对基于比特币的服务能够保护其毕生积蓄有信心。

In terms of ensuring the integrity of online transactions, emerging market respondents again demonstrate their relative confidence in Bitcoin. An impressive 66% of Nigerian respondents and 35% from Brazil trust Bitcoin-based systems more than alternative options like banks or governments. This stands in stark contrast to the 16% of German and 21% of UK respondents who hold the same view.

在确保在线交易的完整性方面，新兴市场受访者再次表现出他们对比特币的相对信心。令人印象深刻的是，66% 的尼日利亚受访者和 35% 的巴西受访者更信任基于比特币的系统，而不是银行或政府等其他选择。这与持有相同观点的德国受访者 16% 和英国受访者 21% 形成鲜明对比。

Jonathan Hargreaves, Elastos' Global Head of Business Development & ESG, underscores the significance of these findings:

亦来云业务发展和 ESG 全球主管 Jonathan Hargreaves 强调了这些发现的重要性：

"The inaugural BIT Index offers a compelling glimpse into the decentralized currency landscape. The fact that over two-thirds of Nigerian consumers and a third of their counterparts in the UAE and Brazil trust Bitcoin more than traditional financial instruments speaks volumes about the protagonism of these regions. In many cases, the absence of viable alternatives for cross-border transactions and inflation mitigation is driving this adoption."

“首个 BIT 指数让人们对去中心化货币格局有了一个令人信服的了解。事实上，超过三分之二的尼日利亚消费者以及三分之一的阿联酋和巴西消费者比传统金融工具更信任比特币，这一事实充分说明了这些货币的主角地位。在许多情况下，缺乏可行的跨境交易替代方案和缓解通胀正在推动这种采用。”

Bitcoin's Increasing Utility in Emerging Markets

比特币在新兴市场的实用性不断增加

The research also reveals the purposes for which Bitcoin is increasingly becoming the preferred currency among emerging market consumers:

该研究还揭示了比特币日益成为新兴市场消费者首选货币的目的：

• Sending and receiving money from abroad: Nigeria (48%) leads the way in this category, compared to the global average of 28% and significantly higher than Germany (18%) and the UK (20%).
• Storing savings: Brazil (51%) and Nigeria (49%) stand out in this area, surpassing the global average of 43% and South Korea's relatively low rate of 27%.

Optimism for the Future

从国外汇款和收款：尼日利亚 (48%) 在这一类别中处于领先地位，而全球平均水平为 28%，并且显着高于德国 (18%) 和英国 (20%)。 储蓄储蓄：巴西 (51 %）和尼日利亚（49%）在这一领域表现突出，超过了全球平均水平 43% 和韩国相对较低的 27%。 对未来的乐观

Emerging market respondents also express optimism about Bitcoin's future. A significant 78% of Nigerian respondents and 70% of Brazilians anticipate a rise in Bitcoin's usage and valuation throughout the year. This optimism exceeds the global average of 60%, with the UK (42%) and South Korea (47%) showing less enthusiasm.

新兴市场受访者也对比特币的未来表示乐观。 78% 的尼日利亚受访者和 70% 的巴西受访者预计全年比特币的使用量和估值都会上升。这种乐观情绪超过了 60% 的全球平均水平，英国 (42%) 和韩国 (47%) 的热情较低。

Bitcoin Halving Event: Limited Impact on Consumer Perception

比特币减半事件：对消费者认知影响有限

The BIT Index also examines the impact of the recent Bitcoin halving event, which occurs every four years and reduces the incentive for Bitcoin mining by half. Despite considerable speculation about its impact on valuations, consumer awareness and concern remain low. A significant 30% of respondents claim to have no knowledge of the halving, while an additional 39% globally deem it irrelevant to their Bitcoin usage.

BIT 指数还研究了最近的比特币减半事件的影响，该事件每四年发生一次，并将比特币挖矿的激励减少一半。尽管对其对估值的影响有很多猜测，但消费者的意识和担忧仍然很低。相当多的 30% 的受访者声称不知道减半，而全球另外 39% 的受访者认为这与他们的比特币使用无关。

"The inaugural BIT Index underscores the global south's indispensable role in shaping the decentralized economy, with Nigeria emerging as a particularly prominent example," notes Hargreaves. "The reasons behind Bitcoin's adoption in markets like Nigeria, Brazil, and the UAE, such as cross-border payments, savings protection, and mitigating traditional banking charges, are particularly revealing. These insights will be crucial in defining the next generation of Bitcoin apps and services for the global south and beyond."

哈格里夫斯指出：“首个 BIT 指数强调了南方国家在塑造去中心化经济方面不可或缺的作用，尼日利亚就是一个特别突出的例子。” “比特币在尼日利亚、巴西和阿联酋等市场采用的原因，例如跨境支付、储蓄保护和减轻传统银行费用，尤其具有启发性。这些见解对于定义下一代比特币应用程序至关重要并为全球南方及其他地区提供服务。”

Elastos' Role in Advancing Bitcoin's Accessibility
