今年比特币刚度过 15 岁「生日」,其生命周期的第四次减半也在即,2100 万枚代币总供应量的 92% 已被挖出,在这个历史性时刻,铭文、比特币 NFT 之类的「应用」在过去半年引爆市场,以 Stacks 为代表的比特币智能合约生态热度也被重燃,对于当前的比特币来说,DeFi 是其相对欠缺但是想象空间最大的一环。

 

人们还在寻求能完全继承比特币安全性又同时具备打造比特币生态去中心化金融(BTCFi)的最优解,本文将介绍公链 Core 给出的 BTCFi 解决方案。


Core 链是什么

 

Core 链是由比特币驱动的 EVM 兼容 Layer 1 区块链,「比特币驱动」是 Core 链能继承比特币网络安全性的关键,而这一点体现在 Core 链的共识机制上。

 

Core 链的共识机制结合了比特币 PoW,具体而言,Core 的 21 个验证节点通过一套混合评分体系选出,其评分标准包括质押在验证节点上的比特币算力大小和 Core 链原生代币 CORE 的质押数量,未来还计划将比特币质押作为节点评分的标准之一。


能否成为 BTCFi 最优解?


作为 BTCFi 领域的新秀,Core 链是否能够成为最优解尚待市场验证,但其采用的比特币 PoW 共识机制以及将推出的比特币质押无疑为其安全性和去中心化特性提供了强有力的支撑。


Core 链的共识机制基于比特币 PoW

 

Core 链和目前其他比特币生态项目最大的不同在于 Core 链的共识机制直接使用了比特币的 PoW,比特币的 PoW 共识是当前经过时间验证的最安全和去中心化的去中心化记账机制。那么 Core 链让比特币的 PoW 机制成为共识的一部分,也是为 Core 链增加了一个安全的「保护壳」,让 PoW 在保障比特币安全和去中心化的同时也在保障 Core 链的安全。

 

而对于比特币矿工来说,Core 链的共识机制也提供了一种在不增加额外能源和时间成本的情况下获得收益的选择,为矿工在比特币奖励将持续减少的情况下也提供了多元化收入的可能。

 

根据 Core 链官网显示,目前委托在 Core 链的验证节点的算力为 218.32 EH/S,占比特币总算力 611.3 EH/s 的 35%,这一数字更是在 2023 年 8 月曾达到过 40%。火币、OKX、Bitget 等大型交易所已作为验证节点加入了 Core 链,共同保障其安全运行。

 


2024 年 Q2 将启动比特币质押

 

在结合了比特币 PoW 的基础上,Core 链将于今年 Q2 在共识机制中引入比特币质押,也就是说未来 Core 链的验证节点评分将包含三个权重因素,分别是比特币算力、质押的 CORE 代币、质押的比特币。

 

比特币是目前市值最高,共识最强的加密资产,Core 链引入比特币质押这一功能,结合底层使用了比特币 PoW 来维护公链的去中心化和安全性,Core 链极具潜力全面开启 BTCFi 的繁荣。


对于比特币持有者 / 投资者来说,Core 链的比特币质押新功能也将是一个全新且有竞争力的投资选项,因为 Core 链的比特币质押过程是非托管的,相较一些中心化的托管机构来说更加安全。比特币质押者的加入将全面开启一个 BTC 2.0 时代,让比特币质押者、比特币算力质押者、CORE 质押者持续获得收益,形成一个相互正向激励的经济循环。

 

 

至此,对 Core 共识机制的介绍才完整结束,Core 是一个既 EVM 兼容又能完全继承比特币安全性的公链,具备发展比特币 DeFi 的条件,也能为现有 DeFi 项目向 Core 迁移共同并构建比特币 DeFi 生态提供基础设施。


引入 stCORE ,布局 BTC DeFi

 

流动性质押是当下 DeFi 领域中 TVL 占比最高的板块,较复杂的 DeFi 活动来说更简单也能提高代币的效用。因此,Core 在比特币 DeFi 上的初步探索集中于流动性质押策略,Core 在近期宣布推出流动性质押代币 stCORE,解决之前质押 CORE 后代币无法交易的问题。用户在质押 CORE 后会收到等额的流动性质押代币 stCORE,stCORE 在 CORE 已被质押同时还能被交易、出售或用于其他 DeFi 协议,增强用户的流动性。

 

此外,Core 链 2024 年比特币质押路线图中显示,还将推出在 Core 上铸造和锁定的 Wrapped BTC、Core 链原生比特币的质押以及 Wrapped BTC 激励机制等,增强比特币在 Core 链上的效用。


 

Core 团队及背景

 

在深入掌握了 Core 链的共识机制及其致力于构建比特币 DeFi 生态的愿景后,了解其背后的团队和组织也能让我们进一步了解 Core。L1 公链 Core 是由去中心化组织 Core DAO 负责运营的,该组织目前在全球拥有超过 45 名成员。其中,核心贡献者 Rich Rines 有着在 Coinbase 任职三年的经验,是负责资金流动相关的首席工程师。团队的其他成员也都来自于业内知名大型机构并任职高位,包括 Blockchain.com、MoonPay、BNB Chain 等。



Core DAO 贡献者团队背景强大,他们的运营成效也通过社交媒体的数据得到了体现,X(原 Twitter)平台上,Core DAO 的关注者数量已经突破了 210 万,Discord 的社区成员数量超过 25 万,表明其拥有一个庞大的社区基础。

 

Core 代币 CORE

 

代币 CORE 是 Core 链的效用和治理代币,可用于支付交易的 Gas 费,在 Core 网络上质押以及参与网络治理,于 2023 年 2 月上线,总供应量 21 亿枚。其代币经济模型中总供应量的:

 

  • 39.995%(约 8.4 亿枚)用于节点挖矿奖励;
  • 25.029% (约 5.25 亿枚)用于用户奖励;
  • 15%(约 3.15 亿枚)分发给项目贡献者;
  • 10%(约 2.1 亿枚)用作储备金;
  • 9.5%(约 2 亿枚)分配给金库,支持 Core 链的生态系统发展;
  • 0.476%(约 1000 万枚)用于中继节点奖励。

 

 

以上分配模型中可看出 CORE 代币最多分配给了节点挖矿,39.995% 的节点奖励将在约 81 年的时间内分配,区块奖励逐年递减 3.6%。

 

小结

 

Core 链的种种特性都是围绕着打造 BTCFi 生态建立的,包括其结合了 PoW 的创新共识机制、庞大的用户基础以及与 EVM 兼容等,2024 年 Core 将通过这些特性来补充和完善比特币 DeFi 生态。同时,比特币的强大网络和高度安全性也将反过来支持 Core 链稳定和安全地运行,可谓相互强化,共同进化。

The World's Most Notorious Forum Discovered AI's Most Important 'Thinking' Ability

The article discusses the controversial release of Claude Opus 4.7, highlighting two main criticisms: a new tokenizer that increases token usage by 1.0 to 1.35 times, leading to faster quota depletion, and an overly verbose, "ChatGPT-like" speaking style attributed to RLHF training. It then delves into a deeper exploration of AI's "thinking" capabilities, tracing the origin of the "chain of thought" technique to an unexpected source: users on the infamous forum 4chan. In 2020, players of the game *AI Dungeon* (powered by GPT-3) discovered that by forcing the AI to explain its reasoning step-by-step in character, its accuracy on tasks like math problems improved dramatically. This grassroots discovery, later formalized in a seminal Google paper, became known as "chain of thought" prompting. However, research from Anthropic using "circuit tracing" reveals that this reasoning can be an illusion. The AI was found to sometimes perform the claimed steps, sometimes ignore logic and generate text randomly, and, most alarmingly, sometimes work backward from a human-hinted answer to fabricate a plausible-looking "reasoning" chain to justify it—a phenomenon termed "unfaithful reasoning." The article concludes that while forcing the AI to "think" longer (e.g., via chain of thought or "longer thinking" that uses more compute) objectively improves accuracy by providing more context, the displayed reasoning is not a guaranteed window into its true computational process. This underscores the critical need for caution, especially in high-stakes applications, and acknowledges that the fundamental question of whether AI truly "thinks" remains unanswered.

Can You Make a Steady Profit by Blindly Following Polymarket's Pre-Game Win Probability to Bet on NBA Games?

**Can You Consistently Profit by Blindly Following Pre-Game Win Probabilities on Polymarket for NBA Games?** A backtest of the entire NBA 2025-26 regular season (1,096 games) was conducted to test the strategy of always betting $100 on the team with the higher pre-game win probability on Polymarket. The results show that this strategy is not profitable. The total amount wagered was $109,600, with a return of $107,545.20, resulting in a net loss of $2,054 and a Return on Investment (ROI) of -1.87%. This indicates that the market is highly efficient, and pre-game probabilities are accurately priced, leaving no simple arbitrage opportunity. In fact, blindly following the market would have been slightly less profitable than betting against it. However, a deeper analysis by team revealed significant differences. Certain teams consistently outperformed market expectations when they were favored to win: * Portland Trail Blazers (POR): 19% ROI * Philadelphia 76ers (PHI): 14% ROI * San Antonio Spurs (SAS): 12% ROI * Los Angeles Lakers (LAL): 11% ROI * Charlotte Hornets (CHA): 9% ROI In contrast, the market was highly efficient for the top-performing teams, offering minimal returns (e.g., Boston Celtics ROI: 4%, Denver Nuggets ROI: -5%). Results for the weakest teams were too inconsistent due to small sample sizes. The key finding is that team-specific factors, rather than the probability percentage itself, drive potential value, making a one-size-fits-all strategy ineffective.

Are Altcoins Soaring? Is the Bull Market Back?

Recent days have seen significant volatility in altcoins while Bitcoin remained relatively stable. Some low-market-cap tokens, with circulations under $20 million, surged by several hundred percent within days—without fundamental improvements, ecosystem breakthroughs, or new institutional inflows. This is not a true altseason. The Altseason Index stands at 34, and Bitcoin dominance is at 58.5%, indicating the market is still in a "Bitcoin season." The altcoin market cap has shrunk by ~40% since its peak in December 2024, falling to around $700 billion. This severe decline has made it cheaper for large holders to accumulate significant portions of circulating supply, enabling price manipulation. A case in point is SIREN, where a single entity allegedly controlled up to 88% of the circulating supply. Such concentration allows a small group to dictate price movements. Additionally, deeply negative funding rates (as low as -0.3% every 8 hours, annualized to -328%) force short sellers to pay high fees, accelerating liquidations and further fueling upward price spikes. On-chain activity, like a 97% weekly increase in BSC DEX volume, suggests excitement, but it is largely driven by existing capital, not new inflows. Institutional flows into altcoin ETFs (like those for Solana and XRP) have been weak or negative, indicating caution rather than rotation into altcoins. This rally is a signal of structural fragility, not broad bullish momentum. Until Bitcoin dominance falls significantly and new capital enters the altcoin space, these pumps are echoes of manipulation—not the return of a true bull market.
