Hashed:我们为什么投资Taiko?

想象一下,在这个世界里,以太坊的可扩展性是无止境的,交易速度快如闪电,用户隐私是神圣不可侵犯的。这不是一个遥远的梦想,而是一个迅速接近的现实,这一切都归功于 Taiko。

作为主要投资者,我们很高兴支持 Taiko 在以太坊生态系统中进行革命性创新的旅程,他们的Type-1 ZK-VM技术正在引领这一变革。今天,当他们推出主网时,我们正站在技术创新史无前例的飞跃的风口浪尖上。

尽管将 ZK 与 EVM 集成存在挑战,但 Taiko 的 Type-1 ZK-VM 技术(由 CEO Daniel Wang 于 2023 年推出)是一项突破。CTO Brecht Devos 和 CFO Terence Lam 也参与其中,经验丰富的团队在一年内成功推出了多个公共测试网,并展示了令人印象深刻的指标。

Taiko 团队从他们的 Loopring 背景中带来了丰富的经验,Loopring 是最早的 ZK rollup 之一。这一基础使他们具备了应对以太坊可扩展性的复杂挑战所需的知识和技能。管理团队已经合作了五年多,这在该领域中非常罕见,进一步巩固了他们凝聚力和有效的创新方法。

Taiko 的目标是将以太坊的可扩展性提高 1000 倍,为开发人员提供与 EVM 一致的 UI 和体验。这意味着任何兼容 EVM 的L1项目都可以通过简单地复制并粘贴其代码到 Taiko,实现无缝过渡到 L2。

Taiko 方法的一个独特之处在于提议者和验证者的去中心化,以防止单点故障。Taiko 应用了Based Rollup来实现协议内的排序过程去中心化。在这种设置中,以太坊验证者完成排序,因为 Based Rollup 允许在基础L1链上进行排序。此外,Taiko 的 Based Contestable Rollup(BCR)允许应用链采用更新、更高效的有效性证明,而无需更改 Taiko 的核心协议。结合Multi-Proof,这减少了协议中潜在的漏洞和智能合约错误,使 Taiko 成为唯一实现此功能的L2。

这些功能吸引了超过 100 个 DApp 进入 Taiko 的测试网。Taiko 已经与 EtherScan、USDC、Pyth、多个 DeFi 协议和桥梁建立了合作关系。随着 Uniswap 宣布在 Taiko 主网上部署 Uniswap V3,我们预计一旦主网上线,其他主要协议也会发布类似的宣布。值得注意的是,Taiko 拥有整个加密领域中最大的 Discord 社区,凸显了强大的社区参与和支持。

Taiko 还拥有广泛的技术路线图,包含许多有前景的技术:

  • Based “Booster” Rollup(BBR):Booster Rollup 通过提供原生以太坊L1 DApp 扩展来增强基本的 Rollup。BBR 在保持L1排序优势的同时,实现所有L2之间的原子跨 Rollup 交易。在主网上推出 BCR 后,Taiko 计划升级到 BBR 或推出单独的 BBR L2,作为一个重要里程碑。

  • Inception Layers:这涉及使用 Taiko 作为L2和L3层,使其能够同时运行多个平行的L2实例并在其上部署L3。利用 Taiko 与以太坊的等效性,可以解决扩展性限制,允许多个 Rollup 共存。通过 Inception Layers,这种方法确保了广泛的扩展能力,同时通过 Merkle 证明保持不同层之间的互操作性,从而防止碎片化。

Taiko 得到了以太坊社区知名人士的支持,包括 Vitalik Buterin 和 Justin Drake。这一认可凸显了 Taiko 技术的可信度和潜力。凭借如此强大的基础和清晰的愿景,Taiko 有望成为以太坊扩展性和创新未来的基石之一。我们很高兴能参与这段旅程。

The Full Story of How Crypto Unicorn Blockstream Is Mired in Serious Fraud Allegations

This article details serious allegations of fraud against Bitcoin infrastructure company Blockstream, founded by Bitcoin pioneer Adam Back. In June 2024, investigative account NatInfoSec published a report accusing Blockstream's mining note (BMN) program of potentially operating a multi-billion dollar scheme with Ponzi-like characteristics. The core allegations focus on Blockstream Mining Notes (BMNs), which offer investors fixed annual yields up to approximately 20% from Bitcoin mining. NatInfoSec's investigation raises several key issues: 1. **Suspicious Hashrate & Payout Capacity**: The analysis suggests Blockstream would need 20-45 EH/s of mining power to cover its BMN obligations, but its public dashboard shows only around 15 EH/s. Furthermore, no verifiable public evidence (e.g., grid connection records, import data) was found to support the massive mining operation required. 2. **Questionable Payout Source**: The BMN contract allows Blockstream to use Bitcoin from *any source* (Substitute Performance BTC) to fulfill investor payouts, raising concerns that payouts may not come from actual mining revenue. 3. **High-Risk, Fixed Returns**: Offering ~20% fixed yields in the volatile, cyclical Bitcoin mining industry is viewed as highly unusual and requires clear explanation. 4. **Undisclosed Criminal Record of Key Figure**: Christopher William Cook, a key figure in Blockstream's mining operations and CEO of spin-off Exacore, was found to have a federal felony conviction for mail fraud in 2008, a fact not disclosed in BMN offering documents. His background was also allegedly embellished. 5. **Potential Contagion to BSTR SPAC**: Questions were raised about whether these liabilities and Cook's record should have been disclosed in the SEC filings for Bitcoin Standard Treasury Company (BSTR), a separate Adam Back-associated firm planning a SPAC merger. The crypto community is divided. BitMEX Research validated Cook's criminal record and expressed concern over the high yields but found other evidence lacking or misleading, noting the legal separation between BMN, Blockstream, and BSTR. Blockstream defenders, like Samson Mow, argue the mining is real. Critics, however, emphasize the lack of independent, verifiable proof of the mining operation's scale and the true source of investor payouts. The article concludes that BMN remains shrouded in key unanswered questions regarding its actual size, the verifiability of its underlying mining assets and payouts, the source of its high yields, and the full role and disclosure concerning Chris Cook. Blockstream had not issued a comprehensive response at the time of writing.

The Full Story Behind Encryption Unicorn Blockstream's Deep Entanglement in Serious Fraud Allegations

This article details allegations of serious fraud surrounding the crypto company Blockstream, founded by Bitcoin pioneer Adam Back. Investigation account NatInfoSec accuses Blockstream of raising billions through its Blockstream Mining Note (BMN) products, which offer high fixed yields of up to 20% from purported mining revenue. The core allegations are: 1) Blockstream's public mining hash rate (15 EH/s) appears insufficient to cover the massive payout obligations from sold BMN notes, raising questions about the true source of investor payouts. 2) Key executive Christopher William Cook, central to the mining operations, has a prior federal conviction for mail fraud, a fact not disclosed to investors. Cook's background and lavish lifestyle are highlighted as red flags. 3) The structure allows payouts from any source of BTC, not necessarily mining revenue, which critics argue gives it Ponzi-like characteristics. The controversy also touches on Bitcoin Standard Treasury Company (BSTR), a related entity planning a SPAC上市. Critics question whether BMN's liabilities and Cook's record should be disclosed in BSTR's filings. BitMEX Research offered a tempered analysis, confirming Cook's criminal record is likely true and the high yields concerning, but found other claims like insufficient抵押证据 less substantiated. Community debate centers on the need for verifiable proof of Blockstream's mining output and revenue. The article concludes that while fraud is not proven, BMN presents significant, unresolved questions regarding its actual scale, the source of its high fixed returns, the verifiability of its mining operations and payouts, and the full disclosure of associated risks and personnel backgrounds. Blockstream has not yet issued a formal response.
