以太坊基金会在2025年第一季度分配了3265万美元的赠款

这项资金表明，以太坊致力于推进区块链技术，同时解决可扩展性挑战。

The Ethereum Foundation distributed $32.65 million in grants to fund 32 initiatives across various domains in the first quarter of 2025.

以太坊基金会在2025年第一季度分配了326.5万美元的赠款，以资助跨各个领域的32次倡议。

The largest portion of the funding went to community and education projects. These initiatives include sponsoring events like ETHPrague, launching the first Ethereum event in Ethiopia with ETHiopia, and organizing regional developer bootcamps.

资金中最大的部分用于社区和教育项目。这些举措包括赞助诸如Ethprague之类的活动，在埃塞俄比亚与埃塞俄比亚举行的首次以太坊活动以及组织区域开发商训练营。

Projects like the Arabic Blockchain Developer Bootcamp focused on creating localized materials and organizing meetups to engage developers in underrepresented regions. This approach aligns with Ethereum's vision of building a global decentralized community.

诸如阿拉伯区块链开发人员训练营之类的项目致力于创建本地材料和组织聚会，以吸引代表性不足地区的开发人员。这种方法与以太坊建立一个全球分散社区的愿景保持一致。

Projects focused on zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs) and cryptographic research claimed the second-largest portion of the funding.

专注于零知识证明（ZKP）和加密研究的项目声称是资金的第二大部分。

Highlighting ZKPs for scalability without privacy or security trade-offs. Supported projects explored post-quantum cryptography, built general-purpose ZKP tooling, and improved SNARK/STARK efficiency.

强调ZKP的可伸缩性，而无需隐私或安全权衡。支持的项目探索了量子后加密，建立了通用的ZKP工具，并提高了Snark/Stark效率。

These technologies are pivotal for scaling Ethereum's Layer 2 solutions.

这些技术对于扩展以太坊的第2层解决方案是关键的。

While Layer 2 solutions have helped reduce congestion on the Ethereum mainnet and lower gas fees, concerns are emerging about revenue distribution. Some community members argue that Ethereum is not being fairly compensated for the security it provides.

尽管第2层解决方案有助于减少以太坊主网上的拥堵并降低汽油费，但人们对收入分配的关注正在出现。一些社区成员认为，以太坊并未对其提供的安全性得到相当大的补偿。

Layer 2 platforms like Base, Optimism, and Arbitrum are collecting substantial transaction ordering fees (sequencing fees) while paying relatively little back to the Ethereum mainnet.

基本，乐观和仲裁等第2层平台正在收集大量的交易订购费（测序费用），同时还要相对较少地回到以太坊主网。

This has sparked debate about whether Layer 2s are beneficial or “extractive” to the Ethereum ecosystem.

这引发了关于第2层是对以太坊生态系统是有益还是“提取”的争论。

According to CoinMetrics researcher Tanay Ved, Base has earned approximately $98 million in revenues from user-transaction fees while paying only about $4.9 million to Ethereum, resulting in an estimated profit of $94 million since the Dencun upgrade in March 2024.

根据Coinmetrics研究人员Tanay Ved的说法，Base从用户交易费用中获得了约9800万美元的收入，同时仅向以太坊支付了490万美元，自2024年3月Dencun升级以来，估计有9400万美元的利润。

Base representatives contend that they have paid Ethereum more than $20 million in settlement fees since launch. They argue that Base makes blockchain access more accessible with fast and cheap transactions, aiding in the growth of the Ethereum ecosystem by onboarding more users and builders.

基本代表认为，自推出以来，他们已经向以太坊支付了超过2000万美元的和解费。他们认为，基础使区块链通过快速和廉价的交易更容易访问，从而通过攻入更多的用户和建筑商来帮助以太坊生态系统的增长。

However, financial statements reveal that Base's overall fees are typically about 10 times the amount paid to Ethereum for settling trades. In April 2024, Base collected $3.7 million in fees but delivered only $305,000 to Ethereum—approximately 8% of total fees.

但是，财务报表表明，基本的总费用通常约为以太坊支付的定居交易的10倍。 2024年4月，Base收取了370万美元的费用，但仅向以太坊交付了305,000美元，占总费用的8％。

Some researchers suggest that the imbalance may correct itself as Ethereum implements upgrades like Pectra and Fusaka, which will increase blob throughput and potentially drive higher total blob fees to the mainnet.

一些研究人员认为，由于以太坊实施诸如Pectra和Fusaka之类的升级，这种不平衡可能会纠正自身，这将增加斑点吞吐量，并有可能使Mainnet的总斑点费用更高。

The recent Pectra upgrade, which went live on May 7, raises the blob target from three to six per block, creating space for increased fee capture as Layer 2 activity scales.

最近的Pectra升级将于5月7日上线，将BLOB目标从每个街区提高了3至6个，为增加费用捕获的空间随着第2层活动量表而增加。

Potential solutions to the fee imbalance include “based rollups,” where transaction ordering occurs on the mainnet rather than on Layer 2s.

费用不平衡的潜在解决方案包括“基于汇总”，其中交易订购在主网上而不是在第2层上发生。

Proponents argue that this would provide better security by addressing the centralization risks of current Layer 2 sequencers.

支持者认为，这将通过解决当前第2层序列的集中化风险来提供更好的安全性。

Several based-rollup Layer 2s have launched in the past year, with Taiko Alethia being the first and largest. While its $148.3 million in total value secured ranks far behind Base's $12.06 billion, its performance is comparable to established platforms like Arbitrum One.

在过去的一年中，几个基于滚动的第2层已经推出，Taiko Alethia是第一和最大的。虽然其1.483亿美元的总价值获得了远远远远远远远远远远远远远远远远远远远远落后于基地的120.6亿美元，但其绩效与诸如inotum One之类的已建立平台相当。

Another proposed solution is implementing a tax on Layer 2s, although this could have unintended consequences. It might make Layer 2s less competitive and risk activity shifting to rival Layer 1 blockchains outside the Ethereum ecosystem.

另一个建议的解决方案是对第2层征税，尽管这可能会带来意想不到的后果。它可能会使第2层的竞争力降低，风险活动转移到以太坊生态系统之外的竞争对手第1层区块链。

The Ethereum Foundation seems to be prioritizing long-term growth over short-term revenue. However, proposals like EIP-7762, which increases the minimum blob base fee to speed up price discovery during demand surges, could drive more fee income to the Ethereum mainnet.

以太坊基金会似乎优先考虑长期增长而不是短期收入。但是，像EIP-7762这样的建议增加了最低斑点基本费用，以加快需求激增期间的价格发现，可能会向以太坊主网带来更多的费用收入。

Some community members believe that social pressure may be necessary to encourage leading centralized Layer 2s to voluntarily share more of their sequencing fees with Ethereum.

一些社区成员认为，社会压力可能是鼓励领先的集中式2层自愿与以太坊分享更多测序费用的必要条件。

Despite these challenges, many remain optimistic about Ethereum's future. The blockchain continues to lead in DeFi assets, stablecoins, and institutional adoption, positioning it well to serve as the infrastructure for a “network of networks” in blockchain's future.

尽管面临这些挑战，但许多人仍然对以太坊的未来保持乐观。区块链继续领导Defi Assets，Stablecoins和机构采用，可以很好地定位区块链未来的“网络网络”基础架构。

In summary, the Ethereum Foundation's grant activity and the ongoing debate over Layer 2 fee structures highlight the dynamic and community-driven nature of the Ethereum ecosystem. As the ecosystem evolves, new technologies, revenue models, and governance structures are being developed to support the long-term vision of a scalable, secure, and inclusive decentralized ecosystem.

总而言之，以太坊基金会的赠款活动以及第2层费用结构的持续辩论突出了以太坊生态系统的动态和社区驱动的性质。随着生态系统的发展，正在开发新技术，收入模型和治理结构，以支持可扩展，安全和包容性的分散生态系统的长期愿景。
