卢加诺揭幕纪念比特币创始人中本聪的雕像

瑞士卢加诺市最近揭开了一座纪念比特币创始人中本聪 (Satoshi Nakamoto) 的雕像。

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

瑞士卢加诺市为纪念比特币（BTC）匿名创始人中本聪（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.

根据 Tether 周五发布的博客文章，这座雕像是与 Plan B 网络和卢加诺市合作创建的。它在 2024 年卢加诺 B 计划论坛期间在卢加诺 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.

纪念碑描绘了中本聪的匿名形象，其中有一个人盘腿而坐，脸被遮住，还有一个看起来像个人电脑的东西。随着观看者的移动，视角也会发生变化，使得雕像从某些角度看起来似乎消失了。

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 首席执行官 Paolo Ardoino 表示，这座雕像是对中本聪对全球金融体系的贡献以及他们将愿景移交给社区的倡议的致敬。

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 月开始接受 BTC、Tether 稳定币 USDT 和城市代币 LVGA 作为法定货币以来，卢加诺已成为比特币采用的中心。卢加诺和萨尔瓦多是少数采用这种身份的加密货币的实体之一。

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，卢加诺市还采用比特币和 USDT 作为缴纳税款和市政费用的方式。此举可能为城市和公共实体将加密货币整合到其金融系统中铺平道路。

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.

卢加诺市长 Michele Foletti 表示，中本聪的地位反映了该市成为领先数字创新中心的目标。他补充说，卢加诺很荣幸能够主办 B 计划会议，并向这位化名的比特币创始人致以持久的敬意。
