我们的宣言
Interlude 插曲
Problem: Industrialized economies brought us a lot of efficiency but sacrificed everything else for it.
问题: 工业化经济给我们带来了很多效率,但却牺牲了其他一切。
Taking money as the ultimate abstraction of value, we started using it as a metric of success & progress. At the corporate level; in making the next quarter ever more profitable, and on the nation state level - where it’s all about growing the GDP.
把金钱作为价值的终极抽象,我们开始用它作为衡量成功与进步的标准。在企业层面,为了金钱,在使下一个季度更加有利可图。在国家层面,一切都是为了增长 GDP。
Thus, the current games society is playing lead to over-exploitation. In a mindless game of chasing profits, we forgot what the economic system was supposed to deliver us. Prosperity. Instead of prosperity, the game is optimized for maximum value extraction at the expense of all living beings and natural resources.
因此,当前的社会在玩的游戏,正在导致过度开发。在盲目追逐利润的游戏中,我们忘记了经济体系应该带给我们什么。繁荣?这个游戏不是为了繁荣,而是以牺牲所有的生物和自然资源为代价,来获取最大的价值。
We need to start a new game before it’s too late.
我们需要在一切都太迟之前,开始一场新游戏。
A Decentralized Society 一个去中心化的社会
Explained in more detail through posts like WTF is MetaGame, A Decentralized Factory, A Web of Opportunity & The Way of Web3 Founders - our goal is to build an environment where value-aligned individuals & groups may come together, do awesome things & make a living.
我们的目标是建立一个环境。在这个环境中,价值观一致的个人和团体,可以走到一起,做出了不起的事情,并以此谋生。
The first version of MetaGame is being built mainly for the pioneers of the future we want to build. From educational resources & teammates, to mentors, investors & users; we hope to bring together anything you’ll need to build decentralized applications & organizations.
MetaGame 的第一个版本,主要为构建我们想要的未来的先驱者而构建。从教育资源和队友、导师、投资者和用户;我们希望聚合任何你需要建立去中心化的应用程序和组织。
Over the long run, the goal is to build an ecosystem of people & projects focused on fixing the world. A society tracking metrics such as morale, people fed & ecosystem health; focused on efficiently allocating resources to the things that matter, not just the things that make a buck.
从长远来看,我们的目标是建立一个人与项目的生态系统,专注于修复世界。一个追踪诸如士气、人们饮食和生态系统健康等指标的社会,注重将资源有效地分配到重要的事情上,而不仅仅是赚钱的事情上。
MetaWorldview 元世界观
The Earth is our spaceship, keeping us alive. We, as humanity, need to start acting like it’s crew and not competitors in a game of who’s-best-at-exploiting-it.
地球是我们的宇宙飞船,维持着我们的生命。我们,作为人类,需要开始行动。就像在一个谁在最好的利用它的游戏中,做队员,而不是竞争对手。
In a different lingo, Gaia is a fragile oasis & our only home. It is to be dutifully gardened & taken care of.
在不同的行话,地球是一个脆弱的绿洲和我们唯一的家园。它应该得到尽职的培育和照料。
Bitcoin halving is cool, but wildlife halving isn’t.
比特币减半很酷,但是野生动物减半就不酷了。
You get the point.
你明白了。
The nation states are irrelevant - we are Citizens of The Earth. Rather than resorting to nationalist ideologies & caving in, it’s time we recognize we are all one family. A human family.
民族国家是无关紧要的——我们是地球的公民。与其诉诸于民族主义的意识形态和屈服,是时候让我们认识到我们都是一个大家庭了。一个人类大家庭。
Be Autonomous 保持自主性
As you might have noticed already, we are very much about taking things into our own hands rather than waiting for commands of the utterly incompetent nation states and the global organizations such as the UN, to solve our problems.
正如你可能已经注意到的那样,我们更多的是把事情掌握在自己手中,而不是等待完全无能的民族国家和全球组织如联合国的命令,来解决我们的问题。
People in the old world are taught to sit quietly and wait to be told what to do. This is not how we do things.
旧世界的人们被教导安静地坐着,等待别人告诉他们该做什么。这不是我们做事的方式。
Do not wait for someone to tell you what to do. Find a problem you care about & solve it. We exist to support you - not command you.
不要等待别人告诉你该做什么。找到你关心的问题并解决它。我们的存在是为了支持你,而不是命令你。
People in the old world like to complain. We like building solutions.
旧世界的人喜欢抱怨,我们喜欢建造解决方案。
Why now? 为什么是现在?
In terms of empowering people to coordinate around creating value together and at scale without having to trust each other; the technologies are barely here now.
就授权人们一起协调创造价值而不必相互信任而言,这种技术现在几乎不存在。
The printing press, the radio & the internet were the information revolutions; democratizing access, production & distribution of information. Web3 is about democratizing organizations & state-making.
印刷机、收音机和互联网是信息革命,使信息的获取、生产和传播民主化。Web3是关于民主化组织和国家形成。
The next era of the internet is the web in which we’re not mere consumers harvested for attention. We’ll be stakeholders & producers of these systems.
互联网的下一个时代是网络时代,在这个时代,我们不仅仅是为了吸引注意力而收获的消费者。我们将是这些系统的利益相关者和生产者。
But this is only about the internet insofar as that’s what we’ll be using to coordinate societies.
但是这仅仅是关于互联网,因为那是我们将要用来协调社会的东西。
We are running out of time to steer humanity away from catastrophes caused by our failure to create better coordination mechanisms than just the markets. Part of the reason we can’t have nice things.
我们没有时间指导人类避免因我们未能建立比市场更好的协调机制而造成的灾难。这是我们不能拥有好东西的部分原因。
