亚瑟·海斯（Arthur Hayes）的家族办公室在最近的新闻稿中宣布

Ben Allen, a Bitcoin developer, has been selected as the third recipient of the Maelstrom Bitcoin Grant, as announced by the family office of Arthur Hayes.

比特币开发商本·艾伦（Ben Allen）已被选为亚瑟·海斯（Arthur Hayes）家族办公室宣布的漩涡比特币赠款的第三名获得者。

Over the next year, Allen will focus on advancing the Payjoin Dev Kit project, a privacy-focused initiative designed to enhance user anonymity and network scalability.

明年，艾伦（Allen）将专注于推进Payjoin Dev Kit项目，这是一项以隐私为中心的计划，旨在增强用户匿名性和网络可扩展性。

Payjoin, originally proposed by Nicolas Dorier in BIP 78, enables both the sender and receiver to contribute inputs to a single Bitcoin transaction. This disrupts a common assumption used by financial surveillance firms, namely the idea that multiple transaction inputs must come from a single entity.

Payjoin最初是由Nicolas Dorier在BIP 78中提出的，使发件人和接收器都可以为单个比特币交易提供投入。这破坏了金融监视公司使用的共同假设，即多个交易投入必须来自一个实体的想法。

“Maelstrom would like to congratulate Ben Allen on this grant,” said Arthur Hayes, Chief Investment Officer of Maelstrom. “The great thing about Payjoin, is that if only a small amount of adoption is achieved, it breaks a key assumption used by financial surveillance companies. The assumption they have is that if a Bitcoin transaction has multiple inputs, all the inputs must all belong to the same entity. Therefore, Payjoin adoption improves the privacy of even the people who don’t use it. We are excited to support Ben Allen’s work on open-source tools and software to increase Payjoin adoption.”

Maelstrom首席投资官Arthur Hayes说：“ Maelstrom要祝贺Ben Allen的这笔赠款。” “ Payjoin的伟大之处是，如果仅实现少量采用，它会打破金融监视公司使用的关键假设。他们的假设是，如果比特币交易具有多个输入，所有输入都必须全部属于同一实体，那么，付费工具就可以付费，即使他们不得不付费，我们就会付出任何兴奋的人。收养。”

Payjoin technology, designed to enhance privacy and scalability, has seen limited integration despite being proposed in 2019. To encourage broader adoption, Allen will be working alongside Dan Gould to expand the Payjoin implementation so it can be integrated into more Bitcoin wallets.

旨在增强隐私性和可扩展性的Payjoin技术，尽管在2019年提出了有限的集成。为了鼓励更广泛的采用，Allen将与Dan Gould一起工作以扩大Payjoin实施，因此可以将其集成到更多的比特币钱包中。

Allen acknowledged the technical complexities of the project—including the requirement for receivers to be online—but expressed optimism about overcoming these challenges.

艾伦（Allen）承认该项目的技术复杂性（包括要求接收者在线的要求），但对克服这些挑战的乐观态度表示乐观。

“I’m deeply grateful to Arthur Hayes and Maelstrom for generously providing me with this grant to support my work on the Payjoin Dev Kit project,” said Allen.

艾伦说：“我非常感谢Arthur Hayes和Maelstrom慷慨地为我提供这笔赠款，以支持我在Payjoin Dev Kit项目上的工作。”

“With this funding, I can dedicate myself full-time to enhancing the Payjoin implementation, improving testing, and ensuring that the dev kit remains robust, well-documented, and maintainable for the future.”

“通过这笔资金，我可以全职致力于增强工资公司的实施，改进测试，并确保开发套件保持强大，有据可查，并在未来中维护。”

He also noted the broader mission of his work: “Improving privacy for bitcoin is an area where continued improvement allows for a better experience by empowering users to control their financial data and foster greater peace of mind when using bitcoin day to day. This is an exciting opportunity to contribute to Bitcoin’s privacy and scalability, and I’m looking forward to continuing to collaborate with the community to make Payjoin more widely adopted.”

他还指出了他工作的更广泛的使命：“改善比特币的隐私是一个持续改进的领域，可以通过授权用户来控制其财务数据并在日常使用比特币时获得更大的经验。这是一个令人兴奋的机会。这是一个令人兴奋的机会，可以为比特币的隐私性和可扩展性做出贡献，并且我期待与社区的合作促进更广泛的合作，以使其与社区的合作更加多样化。''
