Babylon 宣布推出比特幣質押主網

Babylon 是一個自我託管的比特幣質押協議，它宣布推出第一階段主網，因為它著眼於領先的區塊鏈網絡上不斷增長的去中心化金融市場。

Babylon, a self-custodial Bitcoin staking protocol, has announced the launch of its phase-1 mainnet. The protocol will go live on August 22, 2024, enabling BTC holders to stake their coins with the self-custodial protocol.

Babylon 是一種自我託管的比特幣質押協議，已宣布啟動其第一階段主網。該協議將於 2024 年 8 月 22 日上線，使 BTC 持有者能夠透過自我託管協議質押他們的代幣。

According to the announcement on Monday, the first phase of the mainnet will allow users to stake their BTC in the Babylon protocol, which will then be used to secure proof-of-stake networks. The protocol will provide these networks with the $1 trillion bitcoin network security.

根據週一的公告，主網的第一階段將允許用戶將他們的 BTC 放入 Babylon 協議中，然後該協議將用於保護權益證明網路。該協議將為這些網路提供價值 1 兆美元的比特幣網路安全。

Babylon is designed to enable any proof-of-stake network to tap into the vast bitcoin network security, opening up possibilities for layer-2 chains, data availability layers, oracles, and other decentralised applications.

Babylon 旨在使任何權益證明網路能夠利用龐大的比特幣網路安全性，為第 2 層鏈、資料可用性層、預言機和其他去中心化應用程式提供可能性。

“This launch leads to the third native use-case of Bitcoin, the asset beside value storage and simple payment: stake to secure networks and earn,” said Fisher Yu, co-founder of the Babylon project. “We expect this to enhance the crypto-economic security of PoS chains and other decentralised applications, offering them a more secure and reliable infrastructure, while at the same time unlocking the value from the idle, unencumbered $1 trillion Bitcoin ecosystem.”

Babylon 計畫的共同創辦人Fisher Yu 表示：「這次發布帶來了比特幣的第三個原生用例，比特幣是除了價值儲存和簡單支付之外的資產：透過抵押來保護網路並賺取收益。 」 「我們預計這將增強PoS 鍊和其他去中心化應用程式的加密經濟安全性，為它們提供更安全、更可靠的基礎設施，同時釋放閒置、無阻礙的1 兆美元比特幣生態系統的價值。

Babylon, which announced a $70 million fundraise in January, is supported by more than 200 finality providers, including Allnodes, Galaxy Digital, P2P, Figment, Luganodes, and Stakefish. The project has also received support from top wallets such as Binance Web3 Wallet, OKX Web3 Wallet, Bitget Wallet, Keystone, and TomoWallet.

Babylon 在 1 月宣布籌集 7,000 萬美元資金，並獲得了 200 多家最終確定提供者的支持，包括 Allnodes、Galaxy Digital、P2P、Figment、Luganodes 和 Stakefish。該專案也獲得了Binance Web3 Wallet、OKX Web3 Wallet、Bitget Wallet、Keystone、TomoWallet等頂級錢包的支援。

“We are excited to see Babylon mainnet go live and to offer our users the opportunity to participate in self-custodial Bitcoin staking,” said a spokesperson for Binance Web3 Wallet. “This integration will provide our users with a seamless and secure way to stake their BTC and earn rewards.”

幣安 Web3 錢包發言人表示：“我們很高興看到 Babylon 主網上線，並為我們的用戶提供參與自我託管比特幣質押的機會。” “這種整合將為我們的用戶提供一種無縫且安全的方式來抵押他們的比特幣並賺取獎勵。”
