为什么比特币在 Web3 时代可能不仅仅局限于金融领域

圆桌会议主播 Rob Nelson 最近与 Custodia Bank 首席执行官 Caitlin Long 讨论了比特币的下一个前沿领域。

Bitcoin technology is being adapted to power decentralized social media platforms like Nostr, which could play a key role in the new era of the internet, according to Custodia Bank CEO Caitlin Long.

Custodia Bank 首席执行官凯特琳·朗 (Caitlin Long) 表示，比特币技术正在为 Nostr 等去中心化社交媒体平台提供动力，这些平台可能在互联网新时代发挥关键作用。

In a recent discussion with roundtable anchor Rob Nelson on the next frontier for Bitcoin, Long highlighted the potential for the technology to extend beyond payment systems and into new领域s.

在最近与圆桌主播 Rob Nelson 讨论比特币的下一个前沿领域时，Long 强调了该技术超越支付系统并进入新领域的潜力。

"You own your identity. No one can take it with you, and it's secured by a private key," she said, emphasizing the parallels between owning your own assets and owning your own data.

“你拥有自己的身份。没有人可以带走它，并且它由私钥保护，”她说，并强调拥有自己的资产和拥有自己的数据之间的相似之处。

"Part of that technology is what you can do creatively on the chain, not just with payments, but with content, with owning data," Nelson added.

尼尔森补充道：“这项技术的一部分是你可以在链上创造性地做一些事情，不仅可以通过支付，还可以通过内容和拥有数据来实现。”

According to Long, these platforms could also be crucial in the fight against AI and deepfakes.

Long 表示，这些平台对于打击人工智能和深度造假也可能至关重要。

"We're going to be cryptographically signing the real messages so that people know it came from us," she explained.

“我们将对真实消息进行加密签名，以便人们知道它来自我们，”她解释道。

As the need for authenticity online grows, Long emphasized the increasing necessity for companies to leverage blockchain technology.

随着对在线真实性的需求不断增长，Long 强调公司利用区块链技术的必要性越来越大。

"Bitcoin is ultimately the same technology that's going to secure your online identity. And to be honest, this is not radical and it's not even new," she said.

“比特币最终与保护你的在线身份的技术相同。说实话，这并不激进，甚至不是什么新鲜事，”她说。

"Data is so cheap, it's very easy for people to just fake it and to just propagate it in an unlimited way. Ultimately, what's real and what's not is going to be determined by you signing with a cryptographic private key."

“数据是如此便宜，人们很容易伪造它并以无限的方式传播它。最终，什么是真实的，什么不是，将由你使用加密私钥签名来决定。”

In a related development, Ava Labs, the team behind the Avalanche blockchain, recently announced that the California DMV would be putting car titles on its public ledger — allowing people to cryptographically store their car title information.

在一项相关的开发中，Avalanche 区块链背后的团队 Ava Labs 最近宣布，加州DMV 将把汽车所有权放入其公共分类账中，允许人们以加密方式存储他们的汽车所有权信息。
