Facebook發行facebookcoin:利好比特幣

1/ It's increasingly looking like 2019 will be the year of the crypto intranet (or permissioned blockchains, or bankcoins and corporatecoins), whatever you want to call them.

1/2019年,越來越有可能,成爲加密內部網之年(或者叫聯盟鏈之年、銀行幣或者公司幣之年),不管是哪種叫法,反正都是這個意思。

2/ JPMcoin, facebookcoin, etc, are certainly inherently uninteresting to those of us interested in censorship resistance, seizure resistance, depreciation resistance, and self-sovereign money.  They will produce some confusion and annoying article headlines by journalists.

2/對於我們這些人來說,"JPMcoin"、"臉書幣" 等本質上肯定都毫無吸引力---因爲我們對抗審查、抗扣押、抗折舊且擁有自主權的貨幣感興趣。而諸如"JPMcoin"、"臉書幣" 之類的幣,則會被記者們用來製造混亂和一堆令人討厭的“頭條新聞”。

3/ But....it's awesome for Bitcoin and other decentralized permissionless cryptocurrencies.  Things like Facebookcoin increase global interest dramatically.  Consider how carpet stores in NYC are all located right next to each other. They're not hurt by competition, they benefit.

3 /但....這些幣的產生,對比特幣和其他去中心化的無權加密貨幣來說,是個好消息。 臉書幣之類的東西會大大增加全球對加密貨幣的興趣。就好比,紐約的地毯商店彼此相鄰,但他們並不受競爭的傷害,反而會彼此受益。

4/ Let's say 300 million people adopt facebookcoin, and 1 in 10 of those stumbles across bitcoin as they explore it.  That doubles the number of bitcoin users, increasing the pace of adoption, the network effects, and the value of the bitcoin network.

4 /我們假設有3億人使用臉書幣,而在這些人中,假設有十分之一的人,在探索過程中偶然發現了比特幣。 這就使比特幣用戶的數量增加了一倍,從而增加了比特幣的採用速度、網絡效應和比特幣網絡的價值。

5/ And things like facebookcoin will produce a whole ecosystem of services and infrastructure around it, much of which will be able to be used directly or indirectly by permissionless cryptocurrencies.

5 /像臉書幣這類幣,會圍繞它本身構建一套完整的服務和基礎設施生態系統,而這個生態系統中的大部分內容,其實都可以被無權加密貨幣直接或間接使用。

6/ this is similar to how a US regulated Bitcoin ETF benefits Venezuelan refugees indirectly by providing more liquidity and incentives to build Bitcoin ATMs in every major city that refugees can then make use of.

6 /這就類似於,受美國監管的比特幣ETF,其實可以間接地給委內瑞拉難民帶來好處:ETF通過提供更多的流動性和激勵措施來鼓勵各大城市安裝比特幣ATM機,以便難民使用。

7/ There was very little investment in things like Bitcoin custody, hardware wallets, key abstraction, educational materials, etc until 2017, because it was simply a small market.  This is a rising tide that will lift all boats.

7 /直到2017年,相關機構在比特幣託管、硬件錢包、公私鑰關鍵詞、教育材料等方面的投資還很少,因爲加密市場只是一個小市場。 現在,漲潮了,所有的船都會被擡升。

8/ Instead of having to explain from scratch what a cryptocurrency is and why it's interesting, now we get to tell legions of already interested people why bitcoin is better than facebookcoin for many things.  We'll have an eager instead of reluctant audience.

8 /相比於(以前)我們必須從頭開始解釋“加密貨幣是什麼”以及“它爲什麼有趣”,現在,我們只需要告訴已經感興趣的人們“比特幣爲什麼在很多方面都比臉書幣好”。 我們的聽衆現在會是求知若渴的,而不是不情不願的。

9/ it's way easier to point out critical flaws in a well followed things and why there's a great alternative, than to generate interest from scratch.

9 /與從頭培養人們的興趣相比,這樣做更容易:指出一個廣受關注的事物中的關鍵缺陷,並說明爲什麼有一個更好的替代品。
