对话:

Sublet: "Haha, you two still have such a healthy lifestyle."

Lea: "Looks delicious 😋"

Janina: "Maybe we could swap sometime, I think what you make looks delicious too."

Lea: @13@"Hahaha, you do that too!"

Emeline: "Let me have a bite too, I haven't decided what to have for breakfast yet."

Janina: "Hahaha, hurry over then, I'll save you half!"

Dane: "Any noteworthy news these days?"

Sara: "Just the usual daily updates. By the way, do you guys know Gavin Wood? I came across an interview video today where he was featured alongside Vitalik, discussing Web3.0."

[第5段]

开始时间: 13:42:12

结束时间: 13:48:20

对话:

Sara: "The content was really inspiring and has definitely boosted my enthusiasm for crypto!"

Kirby: "Gavin Wood, such a familiar name."

Toby: "Vitalik's making another appearance for an interview!"

Graham: @22@"One of the founders of Ethereum"

Kirby: "I knew it sounded familiar, but I couldn't place it suddenly 😢"{Graham:🤣}

Sublet: "What was the interview mainly about?"

Sara: "It's not too complex, just a simple overview of the future outlook for Web3.0"

Bryce: "Gavin Wood? Anyone familiar with Ethereum's history would definitely know him! He's one of the co-founders of Ethereum."

[第6段]

开始时间: 13:49:12

结束时间: 14:05:20

对话:

Bryce: "He wrote the programming language for smart contracts and published the paper defining the Ethereum Virtual Machine. In our software programming community, he's definitely a big deal and very famous."

Kirby: "He has a master's degree in computer systems and software engineering and is quite well-known in academic circles. I've even watched his video lectures!"

Graham: "Wow, he's that impressive? I only knew he was the first Chief Technology Officer of the Ethereum Foundation."

Kirby: "I first knew about him when he was still a research scientist at Microsoft. Later, he entered the cryptocurrency field and made a big impact."

Kirby: "He was mainly responsible for the early development of Ethereum and has been dedicated to the entire cryptocurrency industry ever since."

Dane: "He left Microsoft to dive into the development of the crypto world?"

Luther: @32@"It sounds incredible now! At that time, leaving Microsoft meant giving up a promising future."

Sara: "Exactly, Gavin Wood is a pioneering figure in blockchain development, and he and Vitalik are a great team."

Kirby: @35@"Absolutely! Considering the early state of the crypto field back then, with no clear outlook on its future, it took immense belief to fully commit to it!"

Oriel: "Wow, I can already sense his greatness!"

Sara: "No exaggeration, the foundational programming language and logic of Ethereum were primarily led by him."

Sublet: "Kudos to the Ethereum guru!"

[第7段]

开始时间: 14:06:12

结束时间: 14:12:20

对话:

Sublet: ""<Gifzhijing.mp4>

Toby: "It's a pity he didn't stay with the Ethereum Foundation throughout. he and Vitalik eventually parted ways in their careers."

Lea: "That's such a shame!"

Toby: "But in real life, they are still best friends."

Sublet: "Oh? Why is that?"

Oriel: @42@"How did this happen? Did he voluntarily leave the Ethereum Foundation?"

Graham: "I wonder why Gavin Wood left the Ethereum development team later on?"

[第8段]

开始时间: 14:13:12

结束时间: 14:17:20

对话:

Graham: "He was clearly one of the key figures."

Godly: "Maybe it was a conflict over money?"

Aldrich: "I don't think so. These blockchain founders have high ideals and aren't too focused on money."{Dane:👍}

Dane: "I completely agree. The original developers were driven by their beliefs, not by profit."

Bryce: "Definitely not! The Web3.0 Foundation he manages is a non-profit organization focused on decentralized internet infrastructure and technology. His involvement in blockchain was never about making a profit."

Dwayne: "I've looked into this. After several years of development, Ethereum has accumulated so many ecosystem projects that it's become quite difficult to make fundamental changes to the underlying logic."

[第9段]

开始时间: 14:18:35

结束时间: 14:27:05

对话:

Dwayne: "To address some of Ethereum's shortcomings, Gavin Wood left the Ethereum development team and independently led the creation of the Polkadot chain."

Godly: "So they had some differences in their vision for development, huh!"

Max: "Yeah"

Dominic: "Yeah, that's a real shame"

Max: ""<d1724984932476.gif>

Sara: "It's a shame they didn't continue working together, but they are still shining brightly in their respective fields, contributing greatly to the crypto industry."

[第10段]

开始时间: 14:28:15

结束时间: 14:42:05

对话:

Sara: "Gavin Wood's achievements with the Polkadot chain over the years are also quite remarkable."

Aimee: "Gold always shines, no matter where it is."{Luther:👍, Janina:👍}

Luther: "So Polkadot was founded by Gavin Wood! No wonder it has so many similarities with the Ethereum ecosystem."

Janina: "Polkadot, that name sounds really familiar. I'm sure most people in the community have heard of it."

Kirby: "Yes, investors in the cryptocurrency market have probably traded it to some extent. it has a high retail adoption rate."

Aldrich: "I remember that during the DeFi bull market, the number of people holding Polkadot tokens was probably second only to Bitcoin and Ethereum. it was very popular."

Kirby: "Part of the reason is that its founding team is largely from Ethereum."

Sara: @62@"The two have a strong technical connection in themselves."

Bryce: "Polkadot is very familiar to those of us in the blockchain industry. Our company even participated in the slot auctions!"

Dwayne: "Hahaha, how did it turn out? Did you win any of the auctions?"

Bryce: "Oh, we were far from it. The value of the tokens we held might not even be one-tenth of the final auction price, haha 😓"

[第11段]

开始时间: 15:12:00

结束时间: 15:16:00

对话:

Joyce: "What are you guys discussing? Could you give us an overview of Polkadot and its application value?"

Joyce: "A completely unfamiliar term."

Sara: "In 2016, Wood completed the Polkadot white paper, with the project's ultimate goal being to enable data and information transfer between different blockchains."

Sara: "And it also addresses the scalability issues that have plagued Ethereum for a long time, as well as cross-chain token exchange problems."

[第12段]

开始时间: 15:22:00

结束时间: 15:24:00

对话:

Bryce: "Polkadot was created specifically to address the shortcomings of Ethereum."

Toby: @73@"Of course, this was from the perspective at the time when Ethereum hadn't yet solved the scalability issue."

Sara: "Exactly, the technical challenges have now been overcome."

[第13段]

开始时间: 15:25:00

结束时间: 15:48:00

对话:

Sara: "It's worth noting that a significant portion of Polkadot's initial crowdfunding came from Gavin Wood's Web3 Foundation."

Toby: "I heard he even personally invested a lot of assets into the early development."

Kirby: "Gavin Wood is truly remarkable. Thanks for his contributions to the crypto industry."

Graham: "A salute of the highest respect."

Dwayne: "Unlike most public blockchains that have only a single main chain, Polkadot is a multi-chain network."

Godly: "What exactly are Ethereum's flaws? Kinda curious now"

Sara: "Since Ethereum is a single-chain, it can only create applications, but not other chains."

Bryce: "Exactly, and with only one chain in operation, maintaining high efficiency becomes increasingly challenging as the number of ecosystem applications grows."

Max: "Why's that?"

Toby: "Back then, the Ethereum mainnet hadn't undergone upgrades, so efficiency issues were a constant challenge for smart contract developers."

Dwayne: "You can imagine, with all smart contracts running on a single chain, it's like trying to run 20 games simultaneously on our computers."

Elton: "The computer would definitely be lagging and crashing!"

Dominic: "Haha, that's a fitting analogy."

Sara: "Polkadot can create chains and then build applications on these new chains. This is a groundbreaking innovation and the reason why it's hailed as the third-generation blockchain."

Janina: "So, from what I've gathered, doesn't that mean Polkadot will be competing with Ethereum in terms of project development?"

Dwayne: "So, Polkadot is a challenger to Ethereum, but there's also a cooperative relationship between them."

[第14段]

开始时间: 15:49:00

结束时间: 15:51:05

对话:

Sara: "You're understanding it correctly."

Sara: "Also, in single-chain tokens, data from different blockchains can't be compatible, making the information isolated from each other."

Sara: "For example, Bitcoin can't directly participate in Ethereum's ecosystem projects, and Ethereum can't engage in Bitcoin-related transactions. This leads to inefficient use of funds, requiring constant token exchanges and increasing costs."

[第15段]

开始时间: 15:53:00

结束时间: 15:55:05

对话:

Aldrich: "You've hit the nail on the head. This issue has always troubled me, and I've had to keep swapping between Ethereum and Bitcoin constantly."

Godly: "Didn't see that coming! Can't believe blockchains can't talk to each other"

Kirby: "Of course, the isolation of information isn't limited to just the blockchain and the real world."

[第16段]

开始时间: 15:56:00

结束时间: 15:58:05

对话:

Kirby: "Different chains also have information isolation, making it impossible to transfer information between them"{Oriel:😲}

Godly: "Learned something new!"

Bryce: "The advent of Polkadot addresses this issue."

[第17段]

开始时间: 15:59:08

结束时间: 16:05:05

对话:

Bryce: "Through Polkadot, different blockchains can connect with each other, a process known as cross-chain interaction."

Graham: "I always thought Ethereum had similar functionality, didn't realize it couldn't."

Toby: "It's possible that it might be implemented in the future, so let's wait for further upgrades!"

Aldrich: "Yes, the Ethereum mainnet has always been dynamically evolving and continuously improving."

Oriel: @100@"How does that work? Do you know the principle behind it?"

Sara: "To simplify, the infrastructure of the Polkadot network includes three main models: the Relay Chain, Parachains, and Bridges."

Bryce: "To give a vivid example, the Polkadot relay chain in the cryptocurrency industry is like a power strip in real life. Different devices represent various ecosystem applications, and they connect through parachains and use the power strip."

[第18段]

开始时间: 16:06:00

结束时间: 16:14:05

对话:

Bryce: "In this way, devices that normally can't be used together can coexist by connecting through the power strip."

Joyce: "That's a great analogy! So, this way, you can have many different ecosystem applications working together?"

Sara: "Exactly, parachains can be smart contract platforms, DeFi hubs, or any protocols focused on different areas of business."

Everley: "sounds like it's easier to attract projects than ethereum"

Dwayne: "To some extent, yes. But its operating mechanism is much more complex than Ethereum's, which makes it more challenging to implement."

Toby: "Ethereum's first-mover advantage is so significant that it's nearly unshakable in the crypto space."

Sherman: "Having been around for so long, Ethereum is definitely far ahead in terms of technology."

Bryce: "Bridges are mainly used to help the Polkadot system connect with external blockchain systems, allowing the Polkadot network to communicate with independent blockchain networks."

[第19段]

开始时间: 16:15:35

结束时间: 16:17:05

对话:

Bryce: "Based on these, Polkadot is a scalable, heterogeneous multi-chain blockchain."

Graham: "It can indeed replace Ethereum to some extent."

Sara: "Polkadot's advantages in solving Ethereum's scalability issues are becoming increasingly noticeable."

[第20段]

开始时间: 16:18:25

结束时间: 16:37:46

对话:

Sara: "It closely resembles the effects seen in Ethereum 2.0's Serenity phase."

Dwayne: "Polkadot has already achieved faster transaction speeds compared to the Ethereum chain."

Sublet: "Wow, that sounds pretty good!"

Janina: "So what's this about the Polkadot slot auction? The name sounds really interesting."

Bryce: "In the Polkadot infrastructure, there is a key component called parachain slots. These slots serve as the interface between the relay chain and parachains. To share the security of the Polkadot network and interact with other parachains, it is necessary to use these slots."

Dwayne: "The slot auction is how Polkadot opens up parachain slots to all participants through an auction process."

Bryce: "There are only about 100 parachain slots available, and only one slot is released at a time. That's why Polkadot designed an auction mechanism to allow projects to bid for the right to use a slot."

Janina: "That sounds really interesting."

Joyce: "How is the auction conducted? Is it online or offline? Do they use USD for transactions?"

Sara: "The auction is conducted online. The principle is quite simple: you just need to hold Polkadot tokens. The more tokens you stake, the more likely you are to win the lease for a parachain slot. The maximum duration of a leased slot is 2 years, with each lease cycle lasting 6 months."

Graham: "Using tokens for auctions is really creative and fairer. the highest bidder wins."

Bryce: "Yes, for project teams, the parachain slot auction provides a fair and open opportunity."

Sara: "In addition, if a project fails in the slot auction or if the lease for a parachain slot expires, user funds are refunded."

[第21段]

开始时间: 16:39:12

结束时间: 16:56:05

对话:

Sara: "In other words, the slot auction only locks Polkadot tokens and does not sell them. After the lease period ends, all Polkadot tokens involved in the auction are fully refunded."

Graham: "Oh my god, so the parachain slot auctions are essentially just staking tokens for leasing, without spending any actual money?"

Sara: "Exactly right 😂🤣🤣"

Kirby: "Very fair, that's very much in Gavin Wood's style."

Oriel: "This mechanism should be more widely adopted and admired by other projects."

Bryce: "Becoming a Polkadot parachain allows you to share Polkadot's network consensus and security, and enables you to achieve both distinct business lines and business interactions, giving it a significant competitive edge."

Janina: "I also think this auction model is worth promoting."

Luther: "I agree with your point of view."

Toby: "Thanks to Sara for spreading the knowledge."

Luther: "You always manage to explain complex concepts so clearly, it's really enlightening."

Dominic: "This interactive way of explaining really makes a lasting impression."

Sublet: "This is exactly the charm of the group"
