狗狗币创始人 Jackson Palmer 对加密货币的评价：
I am often asked if I will “return to cryptocurrency” or begin regularly sharing my thoughts on the topic again. My answer is a wholehearted “no”, but to avoid repeating myself I figure it might be worthwhile briefly explaining why here……
我经常被问到，我是会“重新接触加密货币”，还是会再次开始定期分享我对这个话题的看法。我的回答是全心全意的“不”。为了避免重复这个话题，我认为有必要在这里（推特）简要地解释一下原因……
After years of studying it, I believe that cryptocurrency is an inherently right-wing, hyper-capitalistic technology built primarily to amplify the wealth of its proponents through a combination of tax avoidance, diminished regulatory oversight and artificially enforced scarcity.
经过多年研究，我认为加密货币本质上是一种天然右翼的超级资本主义技术，其主要目的是通过避税、减少监管和人为制造稀缺性，来放大其拥有者的财富。
Despite claims of “decentralization”, the cryptocurrency industry is controlled by a powerful cartel of wealthy figures who, with time, have evolved to incorporate many of the same institutions tied to the existing centralized financial system they supposedly set out to replace.
尽管号称“去中心化”，但加密货币行业仍由一个强大的富人卡特尔（垄断联盟）控制。随着时间的推移，他们已经发展到纳入了许多与现有的中心化金融系统相关联的机构，而这一中心化金融系统原本是他们号称要取代的。
The cryptocurrency industry leverages a network of shady business connections, bought influencers and pay-for-play media outlets to perpetuate a cult-like “get rich quick” funnel designed to extract new money from the financially desperate and naive.
加密货币行业利用一个由黑幕商业关系、被收买的有影响力人群和付费媒体机构组成的网络，使一个类似于邪教的“快速致富”渠道永久化，旨在从财务绝望的赌徒和天真的小白那里榨取新的钱财。
Financial exploitation undoubtedly existed before cryptocurrency, but cryptocurrency is almost purpose built to make the funnel of profiteering more efficient for those at the top and less safeguarded for the vulnerable.
金融剥削，早在加密货币问世之前已经存在了，这点毫无疑问。但加密货币在这方面的意图更明显：让肉食者更有效地牟取暴利，而对弱势群体的保护则更少。
Cryptocurrency is like taking the worst parts of today's capitalist system (eg. corruption, fraud, inequality) and using software to technically limit the use of interventions (eg. audits, regulation, taxation) which serve as protections or safety nets for the average person.
加密货币就像采用了当今资本主义制度中最糟粕的那些部分(例如腐败、欺诈、不平等)，并使用软件从技术手段上限制了干预措施(例如审计、监管、税收)的使用，这些干预措施往往是保护普通人群的安全网。
Lose your savings account password? Your fault.
Fall victim to a scam? Your fault.
Billionaires manipulating markets? They’re geniuses.
丢了账号密码？你有错。
成为诈骗受害者？你有错。
亿万富豪操纵市场？他们是天才。
This is the type of dangerous “free for all” capitalism cryptocurrency was unfortunately architected to facilitate since its inception.
不幸的是，加密货币自诞生以来就被用以促进这种危险的、放任价格的资本主义。
But these days even the most modest critique of cryptocurrency will draw smears from the powerful figures in control of the industry and the ire of retail investors who they’ve sold the false promise of one day being a fellow billionaire. Good-faith debate is near impossible.
现在，即使是对加密货币最温和的批评，也会招致控制该行业的强势人物的抹黑以及散户们的愤怒，因为他们向散户出售了有朝一日也能成为亿万富翁的虚假承诺。善意的辩论几乎是不可能的。
For these reasons, I simply no longer go out of my way to engage in public discussion regarding cryptocurrency. It doesn't align with my politics or belief system, and I don't have the energy to try and discuss that with those unwilling to engage in a grounded conversation.
因为以上原因，我将不再公开评论加密货币。它于我三观不合。我也无力去与键盘侠们争论。
I applaud those with the energy to continue asking the hard questions and applying the lens of rigorous skepticism all technology should be subject to. New technology can make the world a better place, but not when decoupled from its inherent politics or societal consequences.
我支持那些有能力继续诘问的人，支持他们用严格怀疑的态度去审视所有技术。新技术能让世界变得更好，若脱离既有的政治和社会秩序，则适得其反。
