新年快乐! 加密货币市场的情绪突然变得相当乐观,人们猜测美国监管机构在多年否认后最终将批准现货比特币 ETF。 据估计,大约 1000 亿美元的资本可能会流入这些产品。
一个问题可能是,有多少新投资者真正了解比特币实际运作的本质——不仅是技术细节,还有治理。 在今天的网络新闻中,我们深入探讨了一位著名的比特币开发商的提案,该提案将严重限制区块链上近期流量的一个关键来源; 过去一周,开源比特币核心软件项目的维护者突然终止了这项工作。
在本周的专题文章中,我们的 Sam Kessler 尝试了福克斯公司(福克斯新闻的母公司)和以太坊扩展项目 Polygon 的新“验证”工具,据称该工具将有助于检测深度伪造品。

GitHub 拒绝! 虽然加密货币交易商、tradfi 投资者、金融机构以及可能还有许多普通人和新手都在对美国监管机构是否会批准现货比特币 ETF 进行扣人心弦的猜测,但一场关于比特币区块链灵魂的斗争正在公开进行。源码开发者平台GitHub。 问题的核心是,像 Ordinals inscriptions 这样的面向数据的应用程序(通常被称为“比特币上的 NFT”)是否应该被允许出现在网络上,纯粹主义者认为网络应该主要保留作为点对点支付的结算层。 今年 9 月,属于后一阵营的长期比特币开发者 Luke Dashjr 提出了一项提案(技术上称为“拉取请求”或 PR),对可填充到单个交易中的数据量进行严格限制。 该提案很快引发了一场持续数月的激烈辩论,直到几天前,最重要的比特币核心软件的维护者 Ava Chow 突然关闭了 PR,没有采取任何行动。 “很明显,这篇公关是有争议的,而且就目前的情况而言,不可能得出每个人都可以接受的结论,”周在帖子中的最后一篇文章中写道。 不过,可能还会有额外的章节,因为 Dashjr 后来在推特上写道:“垃圾邮件过滤不会消失,直到垃圾邮件消失为止。”
ICYMI: We finally got around to reading this report from last month by Galaxy Research's Christine Kim (who by the way is also the former co-author of The Protocol's predecessor newsletter, Valid Points) on why ETH might underperform in the near term. A teaser: "The forthcoming Cancun/Deneb upgrade on Ethereum is expected to reduce fees paid by rollup operators for block space and thus, in the near term, act as a headwind to Ethereum’s fee-derived protocol revenue. Over the long-term, if the blockchain modularity thesis proves correct, then the main network fee drivers for layer-1 blockchains like Ethereum and Celestia will be layer-2 rollup service providers, instead of end-users."

This week's hack of the SEC's X (Twitter) account to post a fake bitcoin ETF approval was "due to an unidentified individual obtaining control over a phone number associated with the @SECGov account through a third party,” based on a preliminary investigation by the social media-platform. The report also noted that the SEC's account did not have two-factor authentication enabled.
Grayscale, purveyor of GBTC bitcoin trust, is standing ground on fees amid ETF price war, though some analysts say tax considerations might keep many investors in the investment vehicle post-conversion.

Highlighting blockchain tech upgrades and developments.
1. Metis, the layer 2 blockchain, in the first official disbursement of their Ecosystem Development Fund (EDF), revealed that DeFi products suite WAGMI will receive a $2 million grant and deployed on Metis on Jan. 8, according to the team: "WAGMI is the latest venture from DeFi magnate Daniele Sesta, and WAGMI will be deploying a decentralized exchange that will allow permissionless pool creation, arbitrage bots that will be a way for market inefficiencies to become users' returns and GMI strategies that allow users to seamlessly interact with concentrated liquidity pools."
2. Parallel Network has officially launched on mainnet and is open to developers, according to the team, claiming to be the first layer-2 network on Arbitrum Orbit to go live. "It is also the first non-custodial omni-chain margin protocol, which allows liquidity to be pooled across multiple chains and makes it immediately available on the Parallel Network."
3. AQUA by JAN3, a Bitcoin and stablecoin wallet headed by former Blockstream Chief Strategy Officer Samson Mow, launched on Jan. 3, according to a press release. Designed for users in Latin America, AQUA claims features that "can also attract die-hard Bitcoin Maximalists, offering them a powerful interface to layer-2 technologies like Lightning and Liquid. By utilizing submarine swaps, AQUA can completely bypass high fee-rate environments, seamlessly moving between Lightning and Liquid. AQUA gives Bitcoiners the ability to batch their Bitcoin transactions in Layer 2 and then swap to mainchain Bitcoin when fees are low."
4. C3.io, a hybrid crypto exchange, announced the launch of public mainnet. The project's "self-custodial approach ensures users control their funds, enhancing security while reducing insolvency risks," according to the team. According to the project documentation: "C3’s on-chain component consists of two smart contract applications, the Cross-collateral Clearing Engine and the Health Calculator, which are deployed on the Algorand blockchain and serve as C3's settlement layer…. To consolidate balances, C3 leverages Wormhole’s cross-chain interoperability protocol to process deposits and withdrawals to and from C3’s on-chain component."
5. Libre, a newly established tokenization platform, is emerging from stealth mode under the leadership of tokenization pioneer Avtar Sehra, constructed using Polygon CDK, the blockchain development kit of the Ethereum-based scaling network. Heavy hitters from the world of institutional cryptocurrency investing like Nomura’s Laser Digital, Brevan Howard’s WebN group and private markets giant Hamilton Lane are foundational partners and the first users, the companies said on Wednesday.

以太坊在 NFT 上被比特币颠覆
过去几年关注 NFT 发展的人都知道,这些代币最初是以太坊区块链上的一种现象。 但根据分析公司 Messari 最近的一份图表,比特币目前在 NFT 销量中处于领先地位,12 月份达到 8.81 亿美元。 Messari 表示:“这远远超过了 2023 年以太坊或 Solana 的任何单月销量。” 司机? 序数铭文。
