The Genesis of Soroban: A Symphony of Technology

索罗班的起源：科技的交响曲

Since its inception in 2014, Stellar has been a pioneer in the blockchain landscape, providing a bedrock of speed, low costs, and real-world utility. As the broader digital assets ecosystem matured, the advent of smart contracts emerged as a crucial catalyst for unlocking new frontiers of financial services.

自 2014 年成立以来，Stellar 一直是区块链领域的先驱，为速度、低成本和现实世界的实用性奠定了基础。随着更广泛的数字资产生态系统的成熟，智能合约的出现成为开启金融服务新领域的关键催化剂。

Smart contracts, digital agreements that execute automatically when predefined conditions are met, offered unprecedented possibilities for enhanced functionality and complexity within blockchain ecosystems. The Stellar Development Foundation (SDF), cognizant of the transformative potential of smart contracts, embarked on a meticulous journey to develop Soroban, a smart contract platform that would seamlessly integrate with the existing Stellar blockchain.

智能合约是在满足预定义条件时自动执行的数字协议，为增强区块链生态系统的功能和复杂性提供了前所未有的可能性。恒星发展基金会（SDF）认识到智能合约的变革潜力，开始了精心开发Soroban的旅程，这是一个可以与现有恒星区块链无缝集成的智能合约平台。

Soroban: A Tower of Strength

索罗班：力量之塔

Soroban was meticulously crafted to meet the exacting demands of the Stellar network. Its design priorities centered on clarity, scalability, and developer-friendliness, ensuring that it would not only complement Stellar but also synergize with its core principles.

Soroban 经过精心设计，以满足恒星网络的严格要求。其设计重点集中在清晰度、可扩展性和开发人员友好性上，确保它不仅能补充 Stellar，还能与其核心原则产生协同作用。

The name Soroban itself is a testament to the platform's aspirations. Inspired by the Japanese abacus, a symbol of efficiency and precision in the business world, Soroban aimed to establish itself as the "abacus standard" in the realm of cryptocurrencies.

Soroban 这个名字本身就证明了该平台的愿景。受日本算盘（商业世界效率和精确的象征）的启发，Soroban 旨在将自己打造为加密货币领域的“算盘标准”。

A Phased Approach: Nurturing Innovation, Ensuring Stability

分阶段的方法：培育创新，确保稳定

The transition to the Soroban-enabled Stellar network (from v19 to v20) was a testament to the SDF's unwavering commitment to meticulous planning and execution. Spanning over two years, the migration involved extensive technical discussions, countless lines of code, and rigorous testing within Testnet.

向 Soroban 支持的 Stellar 网络（从 v19 到 v20）的过渡证明了 SDF 对精心规划和执行的坚定承诺。此次迁移历时两年多，涉及广泛的技术讨论、无数行代码以及测试网内的严格测试。

To preserve the network's renowned performance, security, and stability, a phased approach was employed for Soroban's release:

为了保持网络著名的性能、安全性和稳定性，Soroban 的发布采用了分阶段的方法：
