协议：尽管 ETF 即将获得批准，但 EIGEN 的财富仍吸引着以太坊开发者

以太坊开发者社区成员之间的关系一直很紧张——尽管以太坊价格由于越来越多的预期而不断上涨

Rising anticipation that U.S. regulators might soon approve spot ether exchange-traded funds has sent the price of ETH soaring – up 21% this week in its best performance since August 2021.

人们越来越预期美国监管机构可能很快会批准现货以太币交易所交易基金，导致 ETH 价格飙升，本周上涨 21%，创下 2021 年 8 月以来的最佳表现。

But beneath the surface, there's been tension in the Ethereum developer community over the largest smart-contracts blockchain's future and progress toward decentralization. The sniping became especially acute with the revelations this week that two of the Ethereum Foundation's biggest stars have accepted multimillion-dollar token incentive packages from EigenLayer, the pioneering restaking protocol that has been flagged as possibly posing a systemic risk to Ethereum.

但在表面之下，以太坊开发者社区对于最大的智能合约区块链的未来和去中心化的进展存在紧张情绪。本周有消息称，以太坊基金会的两位最大明星接受了 EigenLayer 的数百万美元代币激励方案，这种批评变得尤为尖锐。EigenLayer 是一项开创性的重新抵押协议，已被标记为可能对以太坊构成系统性风险。

The dust-up began when Péter Szilágyi, a core developer on Ethereum, lamented on Twitter the lack of progress in solving some of the blockchain's most pressing issues. Among them: Maximal extractable value, or MEV – essentially, the use of sophisticated trading bots to frontrun user transactions at the point of execution. Szilágyi's despair reached a crescendo with a sarcastic suggestion that it was “futile to fight against MEV, so might as well lean hard on it, right?”

这场争执始于以太坊核心开发人员 Péter Szilágyi 在 Twitter 上哀叹在解决区块链一些最紧迫问题方面缺乏进展。其中：最大可提取价值（MEV）——本质上是使用复杂的交易机器人在执行时领先于用户交易。西拉吉的绝望达到了顶峰，他讽刺地表示“对抗 MEV 是徒劳的，所以还不如坚定地依靠它，对吧？”

As we noted in last week's issue of The Protocol, even U.S. government officials now appear to characterize MEV as standard operating procedure on the blockchain.

正如我们在上周的《协议》中指出的那样，即使是美国政府官员现在似乎也将 MEV 描述为区块链上的标准操作程序。

Dankrad Feist, the Ethereum Foundation researcher who is the namesake of "danksharding" and a central figure in this week's drama in the Ethereum community, retweeted Szilágyi's post with the comment, "This is such a lazy take if you can't also tell me what your supposed solutions are that let local block producers extract MEV."

以太坊基金会研究员 Dankrad Feist 是“danksharding”的同名者，也是本周以太坊社区闹剧的核心人物，他转发了 Szilágyi 的帖子并评论道：“如果你不能告诉我，这真是一个懒惰的做法你认为让本地区块生产商提取 MEV 的解决方案是什么。”

A back-and-forth ensued, and then Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin chimed in, tweeting that "I'm really proud that Ethereum does not have any culture of trying to prevent people from speaking their minds, even when they have very negative feelings toward major things in the protocol or ecosystem." Buterin, who is known to write long, interrupted his work on a project in Kenya to bang out a 3,000-word-plus essay breaking down the issues, concluding: "I also do not think that the situation is anywhere near as hopeless as Peter's tweets imply."

随后，以太坊联合创始人维塔利克·布特林(Vitalik Buterin)插话道，他在推特上表示：“我很自豪以太坊没有任何试图阻止人们表达自己想法的文化，即使他们有非常消极的想法。对协议或生态系统中主要事物的感受。”众所周知，Buterin 写得很长，他中断了在肯尼亚的一个项目的工作，写了一篇 3000 多字的文章来分析这些问题，并总结道：“我也不认为情况像 Peter 那样绝望。推文暗示。”

Buterin's commentary on the MEV dust-up touched off an entirely separate donnybrook. The pseudonymous crypto influencer Cobie responded to Buterin's tweet by asking the very pointed question of how he felt about "core developers or researchers taking life–changing $ packages from projects built on Ethereum to become 'advisors,' when those projects may have conflicted incentives with Ethereum, either now or in the future."

Buterin 对 MEV 风波的评论引发了完全不同的 Donnybrook 的愤怒。匿名加密货币影响者 Cobie 回应了 Buterin 的推文，提出了一个非常尖锐的问题，即他对“核心开发人员或研究人员从以太坊上构建的项目中获取改变生活的美元包成为‘顾问’有何感想，而这些项目可能与激励措施存在冲突。以太坊，无论是现在还是将来。”

At first it wasn't quite clear what the comment referred to. But then, as reported by CoinDesk's Margaux Nijkerk, a top Ethereum Foundation developer, Justin Drake, disclosed that he had taken on a role advising EigenFoundation, with "a significant token incentive which could easily be worth more than the combined value of all my other assets (mostly ETH)," and a value of "millions of dollars of tokens vesting over 3 years." EigenFoundation supports the restaking protocol EigenLayer, a controversial project partly because experts have warned of its potential systemic risks to the Ethereum blockchain.

起初不太清楚该评论指的是什么。但随后，据 CoinDesk 的 Margaux Nijkerk 报道，以太坊基金会顶级开发人员 Justin Drake 透露，他已担任 EigenFoundation 的顾问，并拥有“重大的代币激励，其价值很容易超过我所有其他代币的总价值”。资产（主要是 ETH）”，以及“在 3 年内归属价值数百万美元的代币”。 EigenFoundation 支持重新抵押协议 EigenLayer，这是一个有争议的项目，部分原因是专家警告其对以太坊区块链存在潜在的系统性风险。

Shortly after that, Feist confessed that he, too, had accepted a paid role at EigenFoundation. The news set off a debate on crypto twitter about whether advising the EigenFoundation would constitute a conflict of interest. "Even if you pinky promise to not let this cloud your judgment, and do it on a personal capacity, that's impossible," wrote Lefteris Karapetsas. One clever jokester deadpanned that the Ethererum researchers were "restaking themselves now."

不久之后，费斯特承认他也接受了 EigenFoundation 的付费职位。该消息在加密货币推特上引发了一场争论，讨论为 EigenFoundation 提供建议是否会构成利益冲突。 “即使你小指承诺不让这影响你的判断，并以个人身份做到这一点，那也是不可能的，”莱夫特里斯·卡拉佩特萨斯写道。一位聪明的开玩笑者面无表情地表示，以太坊研究人员“现在正在重新振作起来”。
