文 | 钱钱 编辑 | 阿景 现在出门带现金的人越来越少了，但你有没有想过，我们花钱时到底在信任谁？扫码付款要靠支付宝背 书，跨行转账得经过银行系统，连收发邮件都得依赖平台服务器。 这些"中间人"一旦出问题，我们的钱和数据就可能打水漂。 2008年金融危机后，有人受够了这种中心化的信任模式，写了篇论文说要创造一种"点对点的电子现 金"，这个人叫中本聪，他发明的东西就是比特币，而支撑比特币的技术，叫区块链。 比特币如何用代码实现"大家一起记账"？ 你可以把区块链想象成一个共享的笔记本，每次交易都要写在新的一页上。 这一页纸不仅有交易记录，还带着前一页的"指纹"（哈希值）。 只要有人想改以前的记录，后面所有页面的指纹都会对不上，全网的人立刻就能发现。 比特币最牛的不是它值多少钱，而是它第一次用代码解决了"陌生人如何互相信任"的问题。 以前我们转账，得让银行当裁判，现在区块链说，"不用裁判了，咱们把账本公开，每个人都来记一 笔。" 这种设计，专业术语叫"不可篡改"，但说白了就是"想作弊比登天还难"。 那谁来写这页纸呢？区块链搞了个"算力比赛"。 全世界的"矿工"用电脑算一道超级复杂的数学题，谁先算出来谁就能记账，还 ...

Group 1 - Blockchain is defined as an encrypted distributed ledger technology, characterized by decentralization, immutability, and a unique reward mechanism [108][109]. - The concept of Web 3.0 is introduced as Read + Write + Own, emphasizing user ownership of data and content [110]. - NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens) are described as unique tokens that can provide proof of ownership and traceability, but currently lack anti-counterfeiting measures [111]. Group 2 - The Metaverse is discussed as an undefined virtual world, with entry requiring the crossing of three gates: the Time Gate, the Sensory Gate, and the Choice Gate [112]. - The development stages of these technologies can be understood through the Gartner Hype Cycle, which includes five phases: Technology Trigger, Peak of Inflated Expectations, Trough of Disillusionment, Slope of Enlightenment, and Plateau of Productivity [90][91]. - The current participants in this new world are categorized into five types: idealists, scammers, adventurers, latecomers, and potential future winners [95][96][97][98].
