升級中本聰：比特幣堆疊的第 2 層拉開了舞蹈的序幕

昨天，大家期待已久的「中本聰」更新由 2020 年推出的知名二層比特幣專案 Stacks 啟動。

Bitcoin Stacks layer-2 finally kicks off the “Nakamoto” update, named after the creator of the world’s most capitalized cryptocurrency.

比特幣堆疊第 2 層終於啟動了「Nakamoto」更新，該更新以世界上資本最多的加密貨幣的創建者的名字命名。

The upgrade is set to significantly improve the network’s scalability, which remains Stacks’ true Achilles’ heel.

此次升級將顯著提高網路的可擴充性，而這仍然是 Stacks 真正的致命弱點。

After its activation, block production is estimated to increase 120 times, decoupling from L1 and significantly accelerating confirmation times.

啟動後，區塊產量預計將增加 120 倍，與 L1 脫鉤並顯著加快確認時間。

From the canonical average of 10 minutes inherent in the Bitcoin consensus mechanism, it will move to a handful of seconds for the inclusion of a transaction in the block.

比特幣共識機制固有的標準平均時間為 10 分鐘，而將交易納入區塊將縮短到幾秒鐘。

Let’s see everything in detail below.

下面讓我們詳細看看一切。

Stacks layer-2 begins the rollout of the Nakamoto update

Stacks Layer-2 開始推出 Nakamoto 更新

Yesterday, the long-awaited “Nakamoto” update was initialized by Stacks, a well-known Bitcoin layer-2 project launched in 2020.

昨天，大家期待已久的「中本聰」更新由 2020 年推出的知名比特幣二層專案 Stacks 啟動。

We are talking about an upgrade that aims to bring greater scalability within the L2 solution, with the goal of making the processing of network transactions even faster.

我們正在討論的升級旨在為 L2 解決方案帶來更大的可擴展性，從而使網路事務的處理速度更快。

Technically Nakamoto will decouple the block production program on Stacks from Bitcoin, implementing a more fluid and less demanding cryptographic mechanism.

從技術上講，中本聰將把 Stacks 上的區塊生產程序與比特幣脫鉤，實現更流暢、要求更低的加密機制。

In detail, the protocol uses a consensus algorithm of proof of transfer, where users burn BTC mined in the blocks to receive rewards.

具體來說，該協議使用傳輸證明的共識演算法，用戶可以燃燒在區塊中開採的 BTC 來獲得獎勵。

If on Bitcoin for the approval of a block it is necessary to wait about 10 minutes, on Stack it will soon take only a few seconds. It is estimated that the production of new transactions will increase by 120 times, making Stacks one of the most performant layer-2 in the world.

如果在比特幣上批准一個區塊需要等待大約 10 分鐘，那麼在 Stack 上很快只需要幾秒鐘。據估計，新交易的產生將增加 120 倍，使 Stacks 成為世界上性能最高的 Layer-2 之一。

Despite the update (initially scheduled for May) being initiated yesterday, there are still more or less 2 weeks of waiting before the process is completed.

儘管更新（原定於 5 月）於昨天啟動，但仍需要大約 2 週的等待時間才能完成。

The stack operators have the entire “stacking cycle 92” (i.e., 2,100 blocks on Bitcoin) to complete Nakamoto, before moving on to a hard fork of the network.

在進入網路硬分叉之前，堆疊營運商擁有整個「堆疊週期 92」（即比特幣上的 2,100 個區塊）來完成中本聰的工作。

Four weeks after the implementation of the Nakamoto update, sBTC will be introduced, which is a decentralized asset backed 1:1 by Bitcoin.

中本聰更新實施四週後，將推出 sBTC，這是由比特幣 1:1 支援的去中心化資產。

This will facilitate the transfer of BTC between the Bitcoin blockchain and that of Stacks and will also be designated as gas in transactions.

這將促進 BTC 在比特幣區塊鏈和 Stacks 區塊鏈之間的轉移，並且也將被指定為交易中的 Gas。

This improvement on the scalability front could finally bring more activity to the DeFi of the network, driving the development of an ecosystem of decentralized applications.

可擴展性方面的這種改進最終可能會為網路的 DeFi 帶來更多的活力，推動去中心化應用生態系統的發展。

We remind that the objective of the layer-2 Stacks is to introduce greater utility such as smart contracts and other decentralized functions using Bitcoin as the base layer.

我們提醒您，第 2 層堆疊的目標是引入更大的實用性，例如使用比特幣作為基礎層的智慧合約和其他去中心化功能。

sBTC could also serve as a bridge for possible payments in stablecoin, initialized in Bitcoin currency.

sBTC 也可以作為穩定幣支付的橋樑，以比特幣貨幣初始化。

The progress of the Stacks chain and the positive impact of Nakamoto in dapps

Stacks鏈的進展以及中本聰對dapps的正面影響

The Nakamoto update arrives in the wake of a large number of progressions for the major layer-2 of Bitcoin Stacks.

中本聰更新是在比特幣堆疊主要第 2 層取得大量進展之後發布的。

The second-layer scalability solution, introduced for the first time in the blockchain world in 2022, has reached nearly 200 million TVL just after two years.

2022年在區塊鏈領域首次推出的第二層可擴展性解決方案，僅兩年後就已達到近2億TVL。

Despite a still not very flourishing ecosystem, the chain has seen a great flow of capital since October 2023, accompanied by an increase in volumes.

儘管生態系統仍然不太繁榮，但自 2023 年 10 月以來，該鏈已經出現了大量資本流動，交易量也隨之增加。

In a short time, it has increased tenfold the sum of the assets locked on the chain, highlighting the growing interest in infrastructures of this type.

短時間內，鏈上鎖定的資產總和增加了十倍，凸顯了人們對此類基礎設施日益增長的興趣。

Since the April top, Stacks has however halved its TVL, reflecting the uncertainty of the cryptographic world in the second quarter of this year.

然而，自 4 月見頂以來，Stacks 已將 TVL 減半，反映出今年第二季加密世界的不確定性。

Despite the latest setback, Stacks appears as the dominant layer-2 platform in the Bitcoin space with much growth potential on the horizon.

儘管遭遇了最新的挫折，Stacks 似乎仍是比特幣領域主導的第二層平台，並且具有巨大的成長潛力。

It is also worth noting how the protocol has recently seen a significant increase in commits on Github by the project’s developers.

還值得注意的是，該協議最近專案開發人員在 Github 上的提交量顯著增加。

Finally, an honorable mention for STX, the native currency of Stacks, which compared to the prices of a year ago has grown by 257%, reaching a market capitalization of 2.1 billion dollars

最後值得一提的是 Stacks 的原生貨幣 STX，與一年前相比，其價格上漲了 257%，市值達到 21 億美元

Now with the Nakamoto Stacks upgrade, it will also be able to improve on the aspect that has most penalized the layer-2 in recent years.

現在，隨著 Nakamoto Stacks 的升級，它也將能夠改進近年來對 Layer-2 影響最大的方面。

In fact, the applications built on this chain suffer from low execution speeds, limiting the user experience and precluding the development of new DeFi products.

事實上，建立在這條鏈上的應用程式執行速度低，限制了用戶體驗並阻礙了新的 DeFi 產品的開發。

A clear example is Velar, DEX spearheading the Stack ecosystem, which despite being fully optimized has an experience far below other competitors like Uniswap

一個明顯的例子是 Velar，DEX 是 Stack 生態系統的先鋒，儘管經過了全面優化，但其體驗遠低於 Uniswap 等其他競爭對手

The developers are obviously incentivized to build in an environment with a simple framework and with sufficient scalability to host large quantities of requests.

開發人員顯然會被激勵在一個具有簡單框架且具有足夠可擴展性來承載大量請求的環境中進行建置。

Nakamoto could finally solve this problem, attracting new capital and challenging the potential of Stack that has been held back for a long time

中本聰終於可以解決這個問題，吸引新的資本，挑戰Stack被壓抑已久的潛力

The landscape of Bitcoin layer-2 and the latest solutions landed on the market

比特幣layer-2格局及最新解決方案登陸市場

From 2023 onwards, we have witnessed the creation of various Bitcoin layer-2s, which like Stacks aim to enhance the use of smart contract on the network and improve its scalability.

從 2023 年開始，我們見證了各種比特幣第 2 層的創建，就像 Stacks 一樣，旨在增強網路上智慧合約的使用並提高其可擴展性。

In reality, even before this trend started to appear
