马的力量和人的心

当零上升到天空时，XMR将被淘汰。

Shang Yang knows the strength of horses, and Bigan knows the heart of people. When NIL ascends to the sky, XMR will be delisted.

香阳知道马的力量，比加知道人们的心。当零上升到天空时，XMR将被淘汰。

Blockchain originated from privacy technology, especially cryptography. From elliptic curves to zero-knowledge proofs, all of them prove the success of privacy economics in the Web 3.0 era.

区块链源自隐私技术，尤其是密码学。从椭圆曲线到零知识证明，它们都证明了网络3.0时代的隐私经济学的成功。

But things are not perfect. From XMR being frequently delisted from CEX/DEX to the arrest of the founder of Tornado Cash, you will find that even if Nillion can be listed on Binance, the geek spirit of privacy projects is retreating, and its final product delivery capabilities are far from perfect.

但是事情并不完美。从XMR经常从CEX/DEX脱颖而出到龙卷风现金创始人的逮捕，您会发现，即使可以列出了二十六次，隐私项目的极客精神正在撤退，其最终的产品交付功能远非完美。

When it comes to polishing privacy products, blockchain projects of the same type need to learn from their Web2 counterparts and improve their own posture.

在抛光隐私产品方面，相同类型的区块链项目需要从其Web2对应物中学习并改善自己的姿势。

Proton proves that privacy can be a well-functioning product

质子证明隐私可能是功能良好的产品

Privacy is a Feature, Not a Product.

隐私是一项功能，而不是产品。

Simply talking about privacy to strengthen the product form is meaningless. In other words, privacy also requires PMF. The reason why giants such as Google and Meta can violate privacy while making people unable to stop is because of convenience and network effects. They can be used out of the box and everyone uses them. Even individuals have to use them in office scenarios, so they will eventually accept everything from Google.

简单地谈论加强产品形式的隐私是毫无意义的。换句话说，隐私也需要PMF。诸如Google和Meta之类的巨人可以在使人们无法停止的同时侵犯隐私的原因是由于便利性和网络效果。它们可以开箱即用，每个人都使用它们。即使是个人也必须在办公场景中使用它们，因此他们最终将接受Google的所有内容。

On this point, the regulatory authorities' model of using fines to replace regulation has failed miserably. Even taking the legendary penalty-resistant Google's $2.974 billion as an example, Google would only need about 16 more days to earn it back, and these fines cannot be converted into revenue for European technology companies, leading to their further powerlessness in the face of Google.

在这一点上，监管机构使用罚款代替法规的模型失败了。即使以传奇的惩罚性Google的29.74亿美元为例，Google也只需要大约16天的时间就可以偿还它，而这些罚款也不能转变为欧洲技术公司的收入，从而在面对Google的情况下会进一步无能为力。

Faced with this problem, Proton's approach is to build its own full range of products, starting from CERN (European Organization for Nuclear Research). The pure inherent credibility of scientific researchers is higher than that of commercial companies. Cryptography technology, open source code, and product audits are used to build privacy products that are truly meaningful - you can achieve the corresponding functions without using Google's full range of products.

面对这个问题，Proton的方法是从CERN（欧洲核研究组织）开始生产自己的全部产品。科学研究人员的纯粹信誉高于商业公司。加密技术，开源代码和产品审核用于构建真正有意义的隐私产品 - 您可以在不使用Google的全部产品范围内实现相应的功能。

Of course, the current network effects and scale effects are still unable to compete with the giants, but compared with their blockchain peers, the products they provide are sufficient for daily use and are qualified Google Alternatives.

当然，当前的网络效果和规模效果仍然无法与巨人竞争，但是与他们提供的区块链同行相比，他们提供的产品足以日常使用，并且是合格的Google替代品。

Compared with the entire Google Workspace family, the current Proton is basically a counterpart to Proton Mail itself. It is worth mentioning that Proton Mail is also the favorite of Jack Dorsey, the founder of Twitter and Square.

与整个Google Workspace家族相比，当前的质子基本上是质子邮件本身的对应物。值得一提的是，Proton Mail也是Twitter和Square的创始人Jack Dorsey的最爱。

Proton Mail is different from general email products. It can be used without binding a mobile phone number, and supports end-to-end encryption mode to ensure the privacy transmission of emails. Before Telegram is regulated, it can be used in conjunction with TG's end-to-end mode to basically build a relatively high level of commercial privacy experience.

质子邮件与一般电子邮件产品不同。它可以在不绑定手机号码的情况下使用，并支持端到端加密模式以确保电子邮件的隐私传输。在调节电报之前，可以与TG的端到端模式一起使用，以基本上建立相对较高的商业隐私体验。

Of course, after the fall of Telegram, Proton Mail combined with Signal can also meet the privacy surfing needs of most people.

当然，电报倒塌后，质子邮件与信号结合在一起也可以满足大多数人的隐私冲浪需求。

Similar to Telegram, Proton has also begun to enter the Web3 field. Its first product is Proton Wallet. Unlike transaction-oriented products such as Bitget Wallet and Binance Wallet, Proton Wallet is extremely restrained and has relatively simple functions.

与电报类似，Proton也开始进入Web3字段。它的第一个产品是质子钱包。与以交易为导向的产品（例如Bitget Wallet和Binance钱包）不同，Proton Wallet非常限制，并且具有相对简单的功能。

The significance of Proton is to prove the feasibility of building products based on privacy technology. Different from the advertising profit model of traditional giants, Proton adopts a payment system. Different from the token economics system of Web3 peers, Proton has not reached the stage of issuing coins. We can call it:

质子的意义是证明基于隐私技术建造产品的可行性。与传统巨头的广告利润模型不同，Proton采用了付款系统。与Web3同行的代币经济系统不同，Proton尚未达到发行硬币的阶段。我们可以称之为：

The non-tokenization practice of crypto technology.

加密技术的非言语实践。

From Skiff to Nillion, the Tokenization of Crypto Technology

从小船到九十六，加密技术的令牌化

If Pronton is considered to be Don Quixote, then Skiff, Nym, Privasea to Nillion are dwarfs, whose own PMF has not been found yet, but the token (Snow White) has already taken the lead.

如果认为Pronton是Don Quixote，那么Skiff，Nym，nym to to Nillions的Privasea是矮人，尚未找到自己的PMF，但令牌（Snow White）已经领先。

On February 9, 2024, Notion announced the acquisition of Skiff. This is also the first case of a large Web2 product acquiring a Web3 startup. It did not take the coin issuance route to create a new trend in the industry. By the way, this is actually the second time Stripe has acquired Bridge.

2024年2月9日，概念宣布收购Skiff。这也是大型Web2产品获取Web3启动的第一种情况。它没有采用硬币发行路线来创造行业的新趋势。顺便说一句，这实际上是第二次获得桥梁。

Skiff is also similar to the Google Suite, with a document suite based on IPFS and an encrypted mailbox service. However, there is a huge problem: the UI is extremely ugly and there is no experience in using it. This is also the biggest problem with current Web3 products. Limited by the slowness and high cost of the underlying blockchain, it is difficult to develop large products based on it to beat Web2 counterparts.

Skiff也与Google Suite相似，其文档套件基于IPF和加密的邮箱服务。但是，有一个巨大的问题：UI非常丑陋，并且没有使用它的经验。这也是当前Web3产品的最大问题。受底层区块链的缓慢和高成本的限制，很难基于它开发大型产品来击败Web2。

Proton is a suitable Google Alternative, but Skiff is not a qualified Proton Alternative.

质子是合适的Google替代品，但Skiff不是合格的质子替代品。

In addition, the development of other Web3 privacy products is also not satisfactory. Nym gradually shifted its focus to the VPN field in the later period. Privasea in the FHE direction emphasized more on adaptation in

此外，其他Web3隐私产品的开发也不令人满意。 NYM在后期将其焦点逐渐转移到VPN场。朝向方向的私人privasea强调了适应
