比特幣白皮書回來了：透明度和去中心化的勝利

對於比特幣社群來說，這是一個重大事件，最初的比特幣白皮書再次可以在 Bitcoin.org 網站上存取。

The original Bitcoin whitepaper is now available again on the Bitcoin.org website, following a series of legal challenges involving Craig Wright, who claimed to be Satoshi Nakamoto, Bitcoin’s pseudonymous creator.

在自稱是比特幣化名創造者中本聰的克雷格懷特 (Craig Wright) 受到一系列法律挑戰後，最初的比特幣白皮書現已在 Bitcoin.org 網站上再次發布。

The whitepaper was removed from the site in 2021 after Wright, through Tulip Trading Limited, filed a copyright lawsuit against the operators of Bitcoin.org, led by the pseudonymous figure Cøbra. A UK court ordered the site to remove the whitepaper from visibility in the country.

2021 年，賴特透過 Tulip Trading Limited 對以化名人物 Cøbra 為首的 Bitcoin.org 業者提起版權訴訟後，該白皮書被從網站上刪除。英國法院命令該網站從該國的可見範圍中刪除該白皮書。

However, Wright’s claim to the identity of Satoshi Nakamoto—and thus to the copyright of the Bitcoin whitepaper—was critically undermined in subsequent legal proceedings.

然而，賴特對中本聰身分的主張，以及比特幣白皮書的版權，在隨後的法律訴訟中遭到嚴重破壞。

A UK High Court ruled in March 2024 that Wright was not Satoshi Nakamoto. The judgment was damning, with the presiding judge noting that Wright had engaged in “technobabble” and had lied “extensively” during the proceedings.

英國高等法院於 2024 年 3 月裁定賴特不是中本聰。判決是嚴厲的，主審法官指出賴特在訴訟過程中「胡言亂語」並「大量」撒謊。

This ruling paved the way for the Bitcoin whitepaper’s return to Bitcoin.org, which was announced by the site’s current maintainer, Hennadii Stepanov, in an X (formerly Twitter) post on Monday.

這項裁決為比特幣白皮書重返 Bitcoin.org 鋪平了道路，該網站的現任維護者 Hennadii Stepanov 週一在 X（前 Twitter）帖子中宣布了這一消息。

The development was celebrated by Stepanov, who noted that the whitepaper had been "hosted on 100+ sites during the last 2 years as a protest against Wright's maximalist claims."

斯捷潘諾夫對這一進展表示慶祝，他指出該白皮書「在過去 2 年裡已在 100 多個網站上發布，以抗議賴特的極簡主義主張」。

Indeed, throughout the legal disputes, the global crypto community rallied in support of the open access to the Bitcoin whitepaper. In defiance of Wright’s claims and legal actions, various entities—ranging from tech companies like Square to government bodies in the US, Estonia, and Colombia—hosted the document.

事實上，在整個法律糾紛中，全球加密社群團結起來支持比特幣白皮書的開放取用。各種實體（從 Square 等科技公司到美國、愛沙尼亞和哥倫比亞的政府機構）無視 Wright 的主張和法律訴訟，託管了該文件。

Furthermore, an individual compiled a list of over 100 websites that continued to publish the whitepaper as a form of protest against Wright’s aggressive stance.

此外，還有人列出了100多個繼續發佈白皮書的網站，以抗議賴特的激進立場。

The restoration of the Bitcoin whitepaper to Bitcoin.org is more than a mere procedural update. It represents a victory for transparency and the decentralized ethos of the cryptocurrency community.

將比特幣白皮書恢復到 Bitcoin.org 不僅僅是程式上的更新。它代表了加密貨幣社區透明度和去中心化精神的勝利。

This outcome not only serves to reaffirm the document’s status as a public domain work but also underscores the broader importance of maintaining open access to foundational crypto texts. It serves as a reminder of the community’s resilience and its commitment to resisting censorship.

這一結果不僅重申了該文件作為公共領域作品的地位，而且還強調了保持對基礎加密文本的開放存取的更廣泛重要性。它提醒人們社區的韌性和抵制審查制度的承諾。

As Bitcoin continues to evolve, the identity of Satoshi Nakamoto remains an intriguing mystery and a separate issue from the practical and philosophical advancements of Bitcoin itself. The re-posting of the Bitcoin whitepaper symbolizes a return to these core principles and ideals, which have spurred the growth of Bitcoin from an obscure digital project to a major financial asset.

隨著比特幣的不斷發展，中本聰的身份仍然是一個令人著迷的謎團，並且與比特幣本身的實踐和哲學進步無關。比特幣白皮書的重新發布象徵著對這些核心原則和理想的回歸，這些原則和理想刺激了比特幣從一個默默無聞的數位項目成長為主要的金融資產。

The saga surrounding its copyright has not only tested the legal boundaries of digital copyright and identity but also reinforced the collective spirit of the crypto community in upholding the principles of decentralization and accessibility.

圍繞其版權的傳奇故事不僅考驗了數位版權和身份的法律界限，而且加強了加密貨幣社區維護去中心化和可訪問性原則的集體精神。
