币圈人物排行榜有个比较深入人心的版本，就是「币圈扑克牌」，但是实际上，全球币圈的人物排行榜和国内的排行榜对比起来，你会发现这个世界上有两个币圈，一个是全球币圈，一个是中国币圈。而这次是想介绍一下国外的币圈大佬排行榜。
There is a more in-depth version of the Currency Circle Man's List, which is called the Currency Circle Card, but, in fact, the world has two currency circles, one of which is the Global Currency Circle, and the other of which is the Chinese. This time, you want to show the big players in foreign currency circles.
让我们从第一个，全球公认的，最优秀的比特币布道者开始吧：
Let's start with the first, globally recognized, best bitcoin sermon:
一、Andreas M Antonopoulos
I, Andreas M Antonopoulos
这个或许各位读者都没有听过的人物，在全球加密货币人物排行榜能排到第一，足以说明国内外的「币圈」隔阂到底有多严重。首先，先马上过目一下这个人是谁，有个基本概念：
This person, who may not have been heard by all readers, is ranked first in the global list of encrypted money figures to show the extent of the gap between domestic and international currency circles. First, look at who he is, and have a basic idea:
Andreas M Antonopoulos 是比特币社区里最知名的人物，也许可以说是比特币世界里最给力的布道者。他是整个币圈里，youtube 视频播放量最高的一位，而他的 youtube 视频，基本都是布道比特币的。
Andreas M Antonopoulos is the most well-known figure in the Bitcoin community, perhaps the most powerful sermon in the Bitcoin world. He's the one with the highest number of youtube videos in the entire currency circle, and his YouTube video, basically, is from the Budobitco.
Andreas 是《精通比特币》和《精通以太坊》的作者，其中后者是一本与 Gavin Wood（以太坊联合创始人）合作铸成的技术书籍。
Andreas is the author of Bitcoin and Ether, a technical book made in collaboration with Gavin Wood (the co-founder of Ether).
他主要有这么些个立场。
He mainly has these positions.
了解大佬，了解立场和名句就够了：
It's enough to get to know the big guy, get to know the position and the famous words:
1、「BITCOIN IS THE FUTURE, BLOCKCHAIN IS BULLSHIT」，这句话是他的立场，也就是「比特币是未来，区块链啥也不是」。
“BITCOIN IS THE FUTURE, BLONKCHAIN IS BULLSHIT”, his position is that “bitcoin is the future and the chain of blocks is nothing”.
那么为什么他说比特币是唯一，并且他一直是这么坚持的，突然写了一本以太坊的书籍呢？他的解释是「我们都应该愿意了解我们不理解或不同意的事情，并且加密货币不是「宗教」。」这个胸怀，的确是比太多人宽广太多了。当然，他不是奔着圈钱去的，否则他的声望当年分叉个比特币说不定都风生水起了。
So why does he say that Bitcoin is the only one, and he's always been so insistent that he wrote a book about Ether? His explanation is that "we should all be willing to know what we don't understand or disagree with, and encrypting the money is not a "religious"." This is really a lot wider than a lot of people. Of course, he didn't run around for money; otherwise his reputation might have gotten better.
2、「比特币和加密货币是最近发明并在互联网上引入的一种货币形式，这是一种仅以数字形式存在的货币形式，它可以像电子邮件一样发送和接收。」
“bitcoin and encrypted currency is a currency that has recently been invented and introduced on the Internet, a monetary form that exists only in digital form and that can be sent and received as e-mail”.
3、「我实际上反对 ETF。我认为比特币 ETF 将对生态系统造成损害。ETF 从根本上违反了点对点货币的基本原则，即每个用户不是通过托管人操作，而是直接控制他们的钱，因为他们可以直接控制他们的密钥。」
Three, "I actually object to ETF. I think that Bitcoin ETF will cause damage to the ecosystem. ETF fundamentally violates the basic principle of point-to-point currency that each user does not operate through a trustee, but directly controls their money because they can directly control their keys."
但是就是这样一个，声望极高，人气极高的大神，居然特别穷，甚至几乎没有比特币。
But that's one of those great, highly respected, highly human, very poor, and hardly any bitcoin.
不是在开玩笑，从比特币耶稣在推特上对他的「嘲讽」可以看出：
It's not a joke, as evidenced by the tweaking he received on Twitter by the Jesus of Bitcoin:
什么原因导致这位大师手上没多少比特币呢？和笔者一样，相信和各位也很像，就是穷。
What causes this master to have little bitcoin? Like me, I believe you're poor.
他在推上说他很认可比特币，但是从 2012 年开始，他的确希望他能永远持有比特币，但是事实上他为了布道比特币，花费了大量的时间精力，导致他没有办法维持家庭和工作，所以他不得不卖了所有的比特币去维持生计，但是并没有停下布道比特币
He's pushing him to say he's a big fan of Bitcoin, but starting in 2012, he did want him to hold bitcoin forever, but in fact, he spent a lot of time and energy on his sermons, and he couldn't keep his family and his job, so he had to sell all bitcoins to make a living, but he didn't stop.
很多人在听说了 Andreas 这尊大神居然很穷之后，纷纷开始给他的比特币地址打款，总共打了 102 个比特币左右，其中，有一位早期比特币持有者捐赠了 79 个比特币。捐赠者说，如果没有 Andreas 的话，自己就不会买入比特币，更不会持有到今天，他是他们早期持有者的信仰源泉。
Many people, after hearing that Andreas, the great god, was poor, began to pay for his bitcoin address, calling a total of 102 bitcoins, out of which one of the early bitcoins had donated 79 bitcoins. Donors said they wouldn't buy bitcoins, let alone hold them today, and he was a source of faith for their early holders.
2012 年以来只布道比特币，积极前往全球各地演说，开导人们，接受争辩，不割韭菜，大方承认自己并没有比特币，接受捐赠。
Since 2012, only Dolbitcoin has been active in speaking around the globe, leading people, accepting arguments, not cutting vegetables, and accepting donations in recognition of the fact that they do not have bitcoin.
以上几点，都让 Andreas 值得排在人们心中，全球币圈人物排行榜第一的位置。
All of these, we're putting Andreas in the middle of the world's currency world.
个人认为，AA 存在的最大意义，就是告诉这个世界：
Personally, the most important thing that AA exists is to tell the world:
没钱，也可以拥护、布道、支持比特币。
Without money, you can embrace, preach, support Bitcoin.
没钱，并不是你割-韭的理由。
No money. That's not why you cut it.
没钱，没多少比特币也不影响成为众人眼中的比特币大师。
No money, not a lot of bitcoin does not affect being a bitcoin master in the eyes of everyone.
钱包里有很多币的，不一定有钱包里都没币的对比特币的理解深入。这年头，有钱的确是王道，但是那些说「手里没币的人说的话都是瞎扯」这种话的人，是不是过于优越了？
There's a lot of coins in the wallet, not necessarily bitcoins in the wallet. The rich are kings these days, but are those who say, "Those who don't have money in their hands are full of shit" too superior?
二、VitalikButerin，也就是 V 神。
II, VitalikButerin, or V. God.
V 神因为大家太熟悉了，笔者这里就简单聊聊一些有趣的事就好了。
Because God is so familiar, I just want to talk about something interesting here.
2013 年年末，那时候正值中国币圈最火热的时候（没错，比 2017 年大牛市更火热），那时候 19 岁的 V 神刚拿了 Peter Thiel 的奖金（硅谷大佬，PayPal 创始人给牛逼少年的奖金）：的脚步：
At the end of 2013, when the Chinese currency was the hottest, 19-year-old V God just took Peter Thiel's bonus.
拿到这笔钱的 V 神打算干什么呢？他打算设计一种新的比特币。没错，是新的比特币，而不是新的加密货币等等，V 神从一开始就打算做一款能达到比特币这种级别的加密货币。
What's the V God going to do with the money? He's going to design a new bitcoin. Yes, it's the new bitcoin, not the new encrypted currency, and so on, and it's the V God going to make an encrypted currency that can reach the bitcoin level from the beginning.
这款新的比特币将基于通用的编程语言，甚至可以让开发者在上面开发各种各样他们想要的应用，不管是钱包、支付工具、社交、游戏或是搭建一个新平台都没有问题。
This new bitcoin will be based on a common programming language, even allowing developers to develop a variety of applications that they want on it, be it wallets, payment tools, socialization, games or building a new platform.
V 神一开始把白皮书发给了 15 个人，这 15 个人又相继发给了他们的好友。一传十，十传百，Buterin 的想法很快就在比特币社区里炸开了锅。
The V God first sent the white paper to 15 people, 15 of them successively to their good friends. Ten or ten times, the Buterin idea quickly blew up in the Bitcoin community.
后来呢，融资就必须得来当时市场最火热的中国了。V 神作为天才少年，中文是没问题的，他只花了几个月的时间就自学了中文。当时的 V 神来到中国，国人们是怎么看待这个神童的呢，
Later on, finance had to come to the hottest China in the market. V. As a genius boy, Chinese was fine, and it took him only a few months to learn Chinese.
从这条微博可以看出一个大概了：
From this microblogging, we can see one thing:
中间还有个小插曲，就是 V 神去敲杜均的门希望他能投资一笔钱，帮忙打开中国市场，当时被杜均赶出去了。后来杜均回忆起这件事情，还是能听出悔意，毕竟这可是千年一遇的好生意，拱手送给沈波了。
In the middle, there was a small episode in which the V God went to knock on Duan's door in the hope that he would invest in money to help open up the Chinese market, and then was driven out by Duyun. Duyun remembered it, but he was still sorry. After all, it was a good deal a thousand years ago, and he gave it to Shenbo.
后来沈波的分布式资本从成功投资了以太坊开始，在国内成为一支很有竞争力的区块链基金，扶摇直上。
Later, Shenbo’s distributed capital began with a successful investment in Etheria and became a highly competitive block-chained fund in the country.
投以太坊的 ICO 是多好的一门生意呢？当时的价格是 2000ETH=1BTC。而最高的时候，ETH 的价格甚至超过了 0.1BTC。
ICOs in Ethio are a good business. The price was 2000ETH=1BTC. At the highest, ETH even exceeded 0.1BTC.
另外多提一句，V 神中文一直也挺好，推特上着急了也会直接发中文怼中文用户：
On the other hand, V has always been very good in Chinese, and on Twitter he has been anxious to send a direct message to Chinese Chinese users:
关于 V 神的故事就不用多说了，所有人都聊过太多了，从小的神童到后来的天才少年，甚至可以说是他带火了区块链这个概念和这个行业。并且因为他逐渐在放权，现在的以太坊去中心化程度越来越高，当然虽然和比特币仍然是没有办法对比的，但是相比于其他加密货币来说，以太坊的去中心化程度还是数一数二的。
There is no need to tell the story of V. Everyone has talked too much, from a child of God to a young boy of talent, even to the notion that he set fire to the chain of blocks and to the industry. And because he is gradually decentralization, the Etherm is becoming increasingly central, although there is still no way to compare it with Bitcoin, but it is still counting as much as it is with other encrypted currencies.
当之无愧的排行榜第二名。
A well-deserved second place on the list.
三、Nick Szabo，尼克萨博。
III, Nick Szabo, Nick Szabo.
首先，还是一张图简单了解一下：
First of all, there's a simple picture:
尼克萨博是智能合约的创始人，同时是密码朋克的主要参与者，在密码学和自由主义社区里的地位是极高的，同时，他也是 V 神的偶像。
Nick Saber was the founder of the Smart Contract and the main participant in the cryptography and liberal community, and he was also an idol of V God.
密码朋克是什么？简单理解，比特币就是诞生在密码朋克社区中，当时中本聪将比特币白皮书以邮件形式发送出去，邮件接收即是密码朋克邮件列表。密码朋克里大都是 IT 精英，比如「维基解密」的创始人阿桑奇、BT 下载的作者布拉姆·科恩、万维网发明者 Tim-Berners Lee 爵士、Facebook 的创始人之一肖恩·帕克，当然，也包括了中本聪。其实在比特币之前，密码朋克就一直在做一些匿名电子现金的尝试。比如 Adam 博士的 Hashcash，Wei Dai 的 B-money，和尼克萨博的 Bitgold 等等（bitgold 名字的确和 bitcoin 很像）。
What's the password punk? Simplely understood, Bitcoin was born in the password punk community, when Bintco sent the White Book of Bitcoin in the form of mail, which is the password punk mailing list. The password punkle was mostly an IT elite, such as the founder of WikiLeaks, BT downloader Bram Cohen, the inventor of the Web, Sir Tim-Berners Lee, one of the founders of Facebook, Sean Parker, and, of course, Mid-Bronk. Before Bitcoin, the password punk had been trying some anonymous electronic cash. For example, Dr. Adam's Hashcash, Wei Dai's B-Money, and Nick Sabel's Bitgold, and so on.
当年中本聪在密码朋克社区中发布比特币白皮书的时候，社区里是一片嘲讽，毕竟前面很多大牛在做类似的「电子现金」的结局都不太好，基本都是失败告终。后来大家也看到了，比特币成功了。但是毋庸置疑，密码朋克社区是一个牛人云集的社区。
It was a mockery of Ben to publish the Bitcoin White Paper in the code punk community in the middle of the year, after all, many of the big bulls that were doing similar "electronic cash" ended badly and largely failed. And then, as you can see, Bitcoin succeeded. But there is no doubt that the code punk community is a community of bulls.
另外说到智能合约，相信大家并不陌生，这个在区块链领域里可以说是最火的概念，其实早在二十多年前就被尼克萨博提出了，1994 年他写成了《智能合约》(Smart contracts) 论文，是智能合约的开山之作。尼克·萨博在数字合约和数字货币领域的研究非常出名，他创造了「智能合约 (Smart contracts)」一词和相关概念。智能合约是加密货币和 E 编程语言的一个主要功能。
In addition, with regard to smart contracts, which are not new to you, this concept can be said to be the hottest in the area of block chains, which was put forward by Nick Saber more than 20 years ago. In 1994, he wrote a paper on Smart Contracts, which is an opening piece of intellectual contracts. Nick Sabo’s research in digital contracts and digital money was well known, and he created the term “smart contracts” and related concepts. Smart contracts are one of the main functions of encryption money and E programming languages.
并且有个很有趣的事情是，他是被认为最可能是中本聪的人，或者至少，是中本聪团队中的主要一员。根据知情人士分析是这样的：「萨博所写的内容和比特币的原文件之间的语言相似的数量是不可思议的，再没有别的其他的可能的作者会达到更高的匹配程度，」格里夫在一场新闻发布会上说，「我们非常确信，在主要的可能性人物中，尼克·萨博是该论文的主要作者，虽然我们并不能排除是其他人的贡献的可能性。」
And it's interesting that he is thought to be most likely to be a mid-blind person, or at least one of the leading members of the middle-brained team. According to an informed analysis, this is the case: "The amount of linguistic similarities between what Sabo wrote and what Bitcoin originally wrote is incredible, and no other possible author would have reached a higher degree of match," Griff said at a press conference, "We are very convinced that among the main probabilities, Nick Sabo is the main author of the paper, although we cannot rule out the possibility of being a contribution from others."
并且这不是空穴来风，现在币圈有很多人还是坚持认为尼克萨博就是中本聪本人或是中本聪团队主要负责人。但是比特币的伟大之处就在于，且不说大家仍然只是猜测，就算有真凭实据确认谁是中本聪，只要他不承认，不以中本聪的身份出现，那么他永远都不会是「中本聪」。
But the great thing about Bitcoin is that, not to say that you are still guessing, he will never be a "middle-breath" if he does not admit that he does not appear as a middle-breath.
比特币，是属于全世界的。
Bitcoin, belongs to the whole world.
四、Adam Back
当下，比特币最火的概念是什么？我想或许是闪电网络没跑了吧。
Now, what's the hottest concept of Bitcoin? I think maybe the lightning network isn't running.
而开发闪电网络的公司，就是 Blockstream，老板就是 Adam Back。
And the company that developed the lightning grid was Blockstream, and the boss was Adam Back.
如果说目前（请注意是目前）对比特币的发展影响最大的人是谁的话，或许 Adam Back 可以成为其中之一。
Perhaps Adam Back could be one of those who have the greatest impact on the development of Bitcoin at the moment.
Adam Back 最早出名是因为比特币的白皮书中引用了他之前的论文，Hash cash（哈希现金），也可以把这位技术大牛理解成是 POW 机制的来源。
Adam Back was first known because of his earlier paper, Hash cash (Hash cash), cited in Bitcoin's White Paper, and could also be understood as the source of the Pow mechanism.
当然，Adam Back 有些黑历史，在比特币成长初期他并没有给与比特币很大的帮助，而在比特币已经小有规模，经历过 2013 年的牛市之后，Adam 才回到比特币世界的怀抱中。
Of course, Adam Back has some black history, and he didn't help Bitcoin very much in the early days of Bitcoin growth, and after Bitcoin was small and large and experienced the 2013 cattle market, Adam came back into the arms of the Bitcoin world.
在大区块党的眼中是这么形容 Blockstream 的：「Blockstream（BS）公司是 core 开发组背后的资金支持方，Blockstream 是 core 最大的赞助商，而投资 Blockstream 的公司大部分都是银行企业」。
“Blockstream is the funder behind the core development team, Blockstream is the largest sponsor of core, and the companies investing in Blockstream are mostly banking firms.”
虽然这样的说法有些偏激，但是 Blockstream 和 bitcoin core（比特币核心开发组）之间的关系的确是走的很近，很多比特币的支持者们也对 Blockstream 对 bitcoin core 和比特币的发展越来越大的影响产生了警惕。
Although this is somewhat biased, the relationship between Blockstream and bitcoin core (bitcoin core development group) is indeed very close, and many supporters of Bitcoin have been alarmed by the growing influence of Blockstream on the development of bitcoin core and bitcoin.
不过，这并不影响 Adam Back 对比特币的起源和发展做出的很大的贡献。
But that doesn't affect the great contribution that Adam Back made to the origins and development of Bitcoin.
五、Charlie Lee 李启威。
先跳过其他的大牛们，介绍这份榜单上排名最靠前的华人，莱特币的创始人，李启威。
Skip the other bulls and introduce the top-ranked Chinese on this list, the founder of Lettcoin, Lee Kei Wai.
一篇报道中描述道：「李启威最早从一篇描述暗网 Silkroad（丝绸之路）的文章中了解到了比特币，他立刻开始研究为什么 Silkroad 只接受比特币。在他眼中，比特币的特性可以算作是数字货币中的黄金。2011 年，李启威萌发了创造一种容易使用的数字货币的想法，作为比特币的补充——他希望创造数字货币中的白银，比特币像黄金一样用于大额支付，那么莱特币可以像白银用于小额支付。」
One story describes: "Li Qingwei, who first learned from an article describing the dark net Silkroad (the Silk Road), immediately began to study why Silkroad only accepts bitcoin. In his eyes, bitcoin is considered gold in a digital currency. In 2011, Lee Qingwei developed the idea of creating an easy-to-use digital currency as a supplement to bitcoin -- he wants to create silver in a digital currency, and bitcoin is used as gold for large payments, so that Lettco is used as silver for small payments."
李启威在国内的币圈似乎并不算一个「大佬」，因为他基本很少在国内媒体发声。但是在全球币圈里，那可绝对是大佬。
Lee Kei Wai doesn't seem to be a "big man" in the domestic currency because he rarely speaks in the domestic media. But in the global currency, that's definitely a big guy.
很多人认为的莱特币就是因为「比特金，莱特银」崛起的，其实远不止这样。莱特币一直是作为比特币的升级先锋军，奋战在第一线的。远的不说，就说比特币最近很火的闪电网络，就在莱特币上率先做过了完整的实验。
It's a lot of people think it's because of the rise of Bitkin, Leather Silver, and it's a lot more than that. It's always been a front-runner for Bitcoin, fighting on the front line. Far from saying, Bitcoin's recent hot lightning network, it's been the first full experiment on Letco.
在 17 年的时候，LTC 曾经从 20 元一口气冲到了差不多 300 元。而那一次暴涨的原因，是因为 LTC 升级了隔离验证。而在莱特币成功升级隔离验证之后，李启威再次在莱特币上实验了闪电网络，实现了莱特币和比特币的跨链置换。
In 17 years, the LTC hit almost $300 from $20 a breath. The reason for that surge was that LTC upgraded the isolation certification. And after Leitney successfully upgraded the isolation certification, Lee Qui-Wee tested the lightning network on Leitney, bringing about a cross-link exchange between Lettco and Bitcoin.
而很多技术，在经过了莱特币的试验之后，比特币社区更放心将技术用在体量更大的比特币上。
Many of the technologies, after testing by Letco, are more confident that they will be used by the Bitcoin community in larger amounts of bitcoins.
而莱特币在最近，又开始尝试大火的协议：Mimblewimble，也就是 Grin 所用的，目前匿名技术集大成者。
In the recent past, Letco began to try the fire: Mimblewimble, the one used by Grin, is the current conglomerator of anonymous technology.
这次先介绍前五个大牛人物，其实单单只是介绍了点皮毛而已。所以这个系列的科普文章笔者会继续写下去，目的当然不是想给他们做营销，这样的牛人，通过这么浅显的语言介绍他们最表面的成就已经让笔者深感愧疚了。目的是希望大家在提起币圈大佬，区块链行业领军人物，加密货币世界里最有影响力的人物的时候，不会只想到李笑来，火星人，李林，宝二爷这样的，只出现在中国币圈「扑克牌」上的人物，而是会出现包括 Andreas，尼克萨博，Adam Back 这样的，比特币诞生的奠基人，区块链和加密货币世界的领航员。返回搜狐，查看更多
This time, the top five bulls were introduced, but only a little bit of fur. So this series of kop writers will continue to write, certainly not for their marketing purposes, but rather for people like Andreas, Niksabbo, Adam Back, who have already made me feel guilty by presenting their most apparent achievements in such a light language. The purpose is to hope that when you bring up the ringers, the chain leaders in the industry, the most influential people in the encrypted money world, you don't want to think only of Li laughter, the Martians, Li Lin, Bo and others who appear on the Chinese currency cardboard, but instead you will see people like Andreas, Nissab, Adam Back, the founder of Bitcoin, and the pilot of the world of encoded money.
