開放網路（TON）可能是開啟加密貨幣和去中心化技術主流採用的關鍵

TON 區塊鏈的病毒式傳播很大程度上歸功於其與即時通訊應用程式 Telegram 的關係，以及超過 9.5 億用戶可以直接透過即時通訊應用程式存取基於 TON 的區塊鏈應用程式。

The Open Network (TON) blockchain is quickly becoming a favorite among mainstream users thanks to its integration with popular messenger app Telegram and its vast user base of over 950 million people.

由於與流行的通訊應用程式 Telegram 的整合以及超過 9.5 億人的龐大用戶群，開放網路 (TON) 區塊鏈正迅速成為主流用戶的最愛。

This unique synergy is paving the way for TON to play a pivotal role in driving the mass adoption of decentralized finance (DeFi), according to a recent report published on Oct. 17 by GSR.

根據 GSR 10 月 17 日發布的最新報告，這種獨特的協同效應正在為 TON 在推動去中心化金融 (DeFi) 的大規模採用方面發揮關鍵作用鋪平道路。

Highlighting this potential, the report states:

報告強調了這一潛力：

This development offers a glimmer of hope for the DeFi sector, which has been lagging behind other crypto niches in terms of performance.

這一發展為 DeFi 領域帶來了一線希望，在性能方面一直落後於其他加密領域。

As noted by Artemis data, tokens associated with DeFi protocols experienced a decline of 72% between January 2022 and September 2023, while memecoins dropped by 35%, and smart contract-related tokens witnessed a decrease of 48%.

Artemis 數據顯示，2022 年 1 月至 2023 年 9 月期間，與 DeFi 協議相關的代幣下跌了 72%，而 memecoin 下跌了 35%，與智能合約相關的代幣下跌了 48%。

Impact of small language models on AI and blockchain — Interview with Assisterr

小語言模型對人工智慧和區塊鏈的影響 — 採訪 Assisterr

In this interview, Assisterr CEO Nick Havryliak discusses the advantages of SLMs, the potential of decentralized AI and how blockchain is empowering communities to shape the future of AI development.

在本次訪談中，Assisterr 執行長 Nick Havryliak 討論了 SLM 的優勢、去中心化人工智慧的潛力，以及區塊鏈如何賦能社群塑造人工智慧發展的未來。

Cointelegraph: What prompted the creation of SLMs, and how do they differ from the large AI models developed by Big Tech companies?

Cointelegraph：是什麼促使 SLM 的創建，它們與大型科技公司開發的大型人工智慧模型有何不同？

As artificial intelligence shifts toward more efficient solutions, small language models (SLMs) are emerging as a powerful tool, offering a cost-effective and scalable alternative to the large, generalized models favored by Big Tech, especially for task-specific applications.

隨著人工智慧轉向更有效率的解決方案，小語言模型(SLM) 正在成為一種強大的工具，為大型科技公司青睞的大型通用模型提供了一種經濟高效且可擴展的替代方案，特別是對於特定任務的應用程式。

Assisterr, a Cambridge-based network of SLMs, is creating a decentralized AI ecosystem where communities can own, manage and enhance their AI models while participating in governance and reward systems through blockchain technology.

Assisterr 是一個位於劍橋的 SLM 網絡，正在創建一個去中心化的人工智慧生態系統，社區可以在其中擁有、管理和增強其人工智慧模型，同時透過區塊鏈技術參與治理和獎勵系統。

Cointelegraph: What inspired the creation of SLMs, and how do they differ from the large AI models developed by Big Tech companies?

Cointelegraph：是什麼激發了 SLM 的創建？

Nick Havryliak: My experience in tech consulting, particularly in managing R&D teams and developing machine learning (ML) and Internet of Things (IoT) solutions, highlighted the major limitation of data set size and quality in ML. This challenge led me to explore how Web3 incentives could be harnessed to aggregate high-quality, niche-specific data. This idea laid the foundation for creating SLMs, which solve the inefficiencies seen in larger, general AI models.

Nick Havryliak：我在技術諮詢方面的經驗，特別是在管理研發團隊以及開發機器學習 (ML) 和物聯網 (IoT) 解決方案方面的經驗，凸顯了 ML 中資料集大小和品質的主要限制。這項挑戰促使我探索如何利用 Web3 激勵措施來聚合高品質、特定領域的資料。這個想法為創建 SLM 奠定了基礎，SLM 解決了大型通用 AI 模型中效率低下的問題。

The report highlighted that TON boasts a higher number of monthly active addresses than Ethereum, which recorded 5.5 million active addresses in September 2024, and other Ethereum layer-2 (L2) networks and sidechains, including Arbitrum, OP Mainnet and the Polygon PoS chain.

該報告強調，TON 的每月活躍地址數量高於以太坊（2024 年9 月記錄了550 萬個活躍地址）以及其他以太坊第2 層(L2) 網路和側鏈，包括Arbitrum、OP 主網和Polygon PoS 鏈。

However, the report also noted that Coinbase’s Base blockchain and Solana still have a larger number of monthly active users.

不過，報告也指出，Coinbase 的 Base 區塊鏈和 Solana 仍擁有較多的每月活躍用戶。
