Cardano創始人查爾斯·霍斯金森（Charles Hoskinson）推出了針對3700萬個區塊鏈地址的“有史以來最大的空投”

Cardano聯合創始人查爾斯·霍斯金森（Charles Hoskinson）推出了他所謂的“有史以來最大的氣盤”，該公司將將令牌分配給3700萬個區塊鏈地址。

Cardano co-founder Charles Hoskinson has revealed what he calls the "biggest airdrop ever," which will distribute tokens to 37 million blockchain addresses.

Cardano聯合創始人查爾斯·霍斯金森（Charles Hoskinson）透露了他所說的“有史以來最大的氣盤”，該公司將把令牌分配給3700萬個區塊鏈地址。

The airdrop, named Glacier Drop, is designed to mark the launch of Midnight, Cardano's upcoming privacy-focused sidechain. Two distinct native tokens will be distributed through this event: NIGHT, which will serve as a governance token, and DUST, a token to be used for shielded, private transactions on the Midnight network.

該名為Glacier Drop的空投旨在紀念Cardano即將以隱私為重點的Sidechain的Midnight的發布。將在此事件中分發兩個不同的本地令牌：夜間，它將用作治理令牌和灰塵，即在午夜網絡上用於屏蔽的私人交易的令牌。

This airdrop will be launched during Consensus 2025 in Toronto, where Hoskinson made the initial announcement. He will further detail the initiative at Paris Blockchain Week 2025.

該空調將在2025年在多倫多共識期間發射，霍斯金森在那裡發表了最初的宣布。他將進一步詳細介紹2025年巴黎區塊鏈週的倡議。

What is unique about this airdrop is that it will not include any venture capitalists or early-stage insiders. Unlike traditional token launches, which frequently allocate a large portion of tokens to institutional investors, this time, the tokens will go directly to retail users.

這款空調的獨特之處在於，它將不包括任何風險投資家或早期內部人士。與傳統的代幣啟動不同，這些發布經常將大部分代幣分配給機構投資者，這一次，代幣將直接轉移給零售用戶。

"This is a stand against the VC Ponzi dynamics," stated Hoskinson. He added that recipients will have the complete freedom to hold, sell, or discard the tokens as they see fit.

霍斯金森說：“這是反對VC Ponzi Dynamics的立場。”他補充說，收件人將擁有完全自由的自由，可以在他們認為合適的情況下持有，出售或丟棄令牌。

The Glacier Drop will be executed across eight major blockchains: Cardano, Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP Ledger, Solana, Avalanche, BNB Chain, and BAT.

冰川滴將在八個主要區塊鏈上執行：Cardano，Bitcoin，以太坊，XRP Ledger，Solana，Avalanche，BNB連鎖店和BAT。

Accordingly, those who hold assets on these chains, including XRP holders, will be eligible for the airdrop. This move showcases the evolving relationship between the XRP and Cardano communities.

因此，那些在包括XRP持有人在內的這些連鎖店中持有資產的人將有資格獲得Airdrop。此舉展示了XRP和Cardano社區之間不斷發展的關係。

Earlier this year, Ripple featured Cardano in one of its promotional videos highlighting the strength and diversity of the crypto industry. This signals a positive shift from previous times when there was more emphasis on competition.

今年早些時候，Ripple在其宣傳視頻之一中以Cardano為特色，強調了加密行業的實力和多樣性。這表明與以前更加強調競爭的時候發生了積極的轉變。

Midnight, which is set to launch in late 2025, will introduce a new concept called chain abstraction. This enables users to interact with the platform using their preferred asset, be it BTC, ETH, ADA, or XRP, without the need for any token conversion.

午夜定於2025年下半年推出，將引入一個名為鏈抽象的新概念。這使用戶可以使用其首選資產（無論是BTC，ETH，ADA還是XRP）與平台進行交互，而無需任何令牌轉換。

Moreover, developers building on Midnight will pay fees using their chain's native token. For instance, Ethereum developers will use ETH, Solana developers will use SOL, and so forth.

此外，開發人員在午夜建造的開發人員將使用其連鎖店的本地令牌支付費用。例如，以太坊開發人員將使用ETH，Solana開發人員將使用SOL，等等。

The project will also support multi-chain validator participation, allowing node operators from any of the eight supported blockchains to help secure the network and earn rewards for their contribution.

該項目還將支持多鏈驗證者的參與，允許來自八個支持區塊鏈中任何一個的節點運算符，以幫助確保網絡並贏得獎勵。

According to Hoskinson, this is a crucial step in a broader effort to end crypto tribalism and promote cooperation.

根據霍斯金森的說法，這是結束加密部落主義和促進合作的更廣泛努力的關鍵一步。

"Every year at Consensus, someone is shouting, 'My chain is better than yours', or 'My coin will go up 100x by the end of the year'," said Hoskinson.

霍斯金森說：“每年在共識中，有人大喊，'我的連鎖店比你的鏈更好'，或者'我的硬幣會在年底之前上升100倍。”

"This year, we are changing that narrative. We are about building bridges, not walls. We are about connecting people and ideas to create something truly great."

“今年，我們正在改變這種敘述。我們是關於建造橋樑，而不是牆壁。我們是要聯繫人們和想法以創造真正偉大的東西。”

Finally, Hoskinson highlighted that Midnight will be the fourth generation of cryptocurrency. The first generation focused on decentralization with Bitcoin, the second brought smart contracts with Ethereum, and the third generation introduced interoperability.

最後，霍斯金森強調了午夜將是第四代加密貨幣。第一代的重點是用比特幣權力下放，第二代帶來了與以太坊的智能合同，第三代引入了互操作性。

However, he believes that the time has come for the next stage, which will be focused on privacy. In today's world, where data is king, Midnight aims to revolutionize how we handle data in a more secure and compliant manner.

但是，他認為下一階段的時候了，這將集中在隱私上。在當今數據是國王的世界中，午夜旨在徹底改變我們如何以更安全，更合規的方式處理數據。
