比特币开发者会见活动人士讨论隐私和自由工具

人权捍卫者本周在奥斯陆自由论坛上会见了比特币企业主和开发商，讨论如何最好地开发比特币相关工具

Bitcoin business owners and developers met with human rights defenders at the Oslo Freedom Forum this week to discuss how to best develop bitcoin-related tools for activists and vulnerable populations around the globe.

比特币企业主和开发商本周在奥斯陆自由论坛上会见了人权捍卫者，讨论如何为全球活动人士和弱势群体最好地开发比特币相关工具。

“Bitcoin has the potential to, in a very practical way, help people who we refer to as high-risk people,” Mogashni Naidoo, a bitcoin user experience (UX) researcher at the Bitcoin Design Community, said in her presentation at the conference. “I believe that in creating these applications, we need to connect with the humans actually using [them].”

比特币设计社区的比特币用户体验 (UX) 研究员莫加什尼·奈杜 (Mogashni Naidoo) 在会议上的演讲中表示：“比特币有潜力以一种非常实用的方式帮助我们所说的高风险人群。” 。 “我相信，在创建这些应用程序时，我们需要与实际使用[它们]的人类建立联系。”

During her presentation, Naidoo described her process of interviewing the users of the products, such as bitcoin wallets, that she and her team design before even conceptualizing what the product might look like.

在演讲中，Naidoo 描述了她采访比特币钱包等产品用户的过程，她和她的团队甚至在概念化产品外观之前就设计了这些产品。

“If we come up with solutions before we really understand the problem, then we’re only hypothesizing,” Naidoo added.

“如果我们在真正理解问题之前就提出解决方案，那么我们只是在假设，”奈杜补充道。

Seth For Privacy, the Head of Marketing and Strategy at Foundation, a bitcoin hardware wallet company, takes a similar approach and came to the conference to gain a better understanding of what activists need when it comes to bitcoin.

比特币硬件钱包公司 Foundation 的营销和战略主管 Seth For Privacy 采取了类似的方法，并来到会议上，以更好地了解活动人士在比特币方面的需求。

“It’s really invigorating to have these conversations,” he told Bitcoin Magazine in an interview. “They help us to see problems that people on the ground are having that we don’t notice in the Bitcoin Twitter bubble or the places where it’s just Bitcoiners congregating and talking.”

“进行这些对话确实令人振奋，”他在接受《比特币杂志》采访时说道。 “它们帮助我们看到人们所面临的问题，而这些问题是我们在比特币推特泡沫或比特币爱好者聚集和交谈的地方没有注意到的。”

Seth For Privacy, an advocate for privacy in bitcoin transactions, as his pseudonym implies, also mentioned that the conference reminded him to keep privacy front of mind when designing new products.

比特币交易隐私倡导者 Seth For Privacy（化名）也提到，这次会议提醒他在设计新产品时将隐私放在首位。

“Seeing people who actually need bitcoin as freedom money is the best catalyst for us to think more deeply about bitcoin privacy, to assess where bitcoin privacy is right now and the ways we can make it better,” he added.

他补充道：“看到那些真正需要比特币作为自由货币的人，是我们更深入地思考比特币隐私、评估比特币隐私现在的状况以及我们可以改善它的方法的最佳催化剂。”

Privacy In Focus

隐私焦点

Privacy in bitcoin transactions was a notable theme at the event.

比特币交易的隐私是此次活动的一个显着主题。

In the wake of the U.S. Department of Justice arresting the founders of Samourai Wallet, a privacy-focused bitcoin wallet, many at the conference were worried about the future of such technology.

在美国司法部逮捕了注重隐私的比特币钱包 Samourai Wallet 的创始人后，会议上的许多人都对此类技术的未来感到担忧。

Anna Chekhovich, Financial Director at Alexei Navalny’s Anti-Corruption Foundation, expressed her concern on a panel.

阿列克谢·纳瓦尔尼反腐败基金会财务总监安娜·契诃维奇在小组讨论中表达了她的担忧。

“If the chilling effect on Bitcoin developers grows, it can damage freedom fighters globally,” Chekhovich said.

契诃维奇说：“如果对比特币开发商的寒蝉效应加剧，它可能会损害全球的自由战士。”

Alex Gladstein, Chief Strategy Officer for the Human Rights Foundation (HRF), the organization that puts on the Oslo Freedom Forum, stressed that HRF has long been committed to helping preserve privacy for activists.

举办奥斯陆自由论坛的组织人权基金会 (HRF) 首席战略官亚历克斯·格拉德斯坦 (Alex Gladstein) 强调，HRF 长期以来一直致力于帮助保护活动人士的隐私。

“HRF’s focus on Bitcoin has always included privacy,” Gladstein told Bitcoin Magazine in an interview. “It’s been very foundational for us, because activists get spied on all the time.”

“HRF 对比特币的关注始终包括隐私，”格拉德斯坦在接受《比特币杂志》采访时表示。 “这对我们来说非常重要，因为活动人士一直受到监视。”

He went on to share how HRF has funded projects that help preserve bitcoin transaction privacy, such as ecash protocol Cashu and bitcoin desktop wallet Sparrow Wallet.

他接着分享了 HRF 如何资助有助于保护比特币交易隐私的项目，例如 ecash 协议 Cashu 和比特币桌面钱包 Sparrow Wallet。

“We’re very proud to have supported a lot of privacy technology over the years,” Gladstein added.

“我们非常自豪多年来支持了大量隐私技术，”格拉德斯坦补充道。

The Challenge Of Educating Westerners About Bitcoin

对西方人进行比特币教育的挑战

A number of the speakers at the event were from the Global South — a term that encompasses Africa, Latin America and Southeast Asia — or under authoritarian regimes who shared how they intuitively understand bitcoin because it provides financial utility and access that traditional monetary and financial systems in their respective countries don’t.

活动中的许多发言者来自南半球（该术语涵盖非洲、拉丁美洲和东南亚）或独裁政权，他们分享了他们如何直观地理解比特币，因为它提供了传统货币和金融体系的金融效用和准入在他们各自的国家却没有。

This was in contrast with some of the attendees from Western countries—jurisdictions governed by democratically-elected leaders that have highly functional financial systems—who still struggle to see the need for something like bitcoin.

这与来自西方国家的一些与会者形成了鲜明的对比——西方国家由民主选举的领导人管辖，拥有功能强大的金融体系——他们仍然很难看到对比特币之类的东西的需求。

“It’s even harder to educate in Western countries than in African countries or elsewhere where people get bitcoin very quickly because they need a tool that helps them to send money in and out the country or have the freedom to pay for something that maybe the government doesn’t want [them to pay for],” Crack The Orange and Bitcoin For Fairness founder Anita Posch told Bitcoin Magazine in an interview.

“在西方国家接受教育比在非洲国家或其他地方更难，在这些国家，人们很快就能获得比特币，因为他们需要一种工具来帮助他们将钱汇入和汇出该国，或者可以自由地支付政府可能不支持的东西。不想[他们付钱]，”Crack The Orange 和 Bitcoin For Fairness 创始人 Anita Posch 在接受《比特币杂志》采访时说道。

Posch has traveled to a number of African countries including Zambia, Zimbabwe and Ghana to teach activists and everyday people alike about bitcoin. She hosted multiple sessions at the Oslo Freedom Forum in which she shared her knowledge about how to use bitcoin privately, while consistently highlighting the fact that bitcoin is a critical tool for activists.

波什曾前往赞比亚、津巴布韦和加纳等许多非洲国家向活动人士和普通民众传授比特币知识。她在奥斯陆自由论坛上主持了多次会议，分享了如何私下使用比特币的知识，同时不断强调比特币是活动人士的重要工具这一事实。

“It’s very, very important to get the message around that Bitcoin is a tool that enforces human rights,” she told us.

“让人们知道比特币是一种执行人权的工具，这一点非常非常重要，”她告诉我们。
