谢谢你为我的戴伟 b-money 论文和其他论文提供的参考线索。

我刚刚发布了我的论文的开源实现——比特币 v0.1。详情、下载和截图见 www.bitcoin.org

该系统的主要思路是生成一条基于哈希的工作量证明链,以创建多数共识自身存在的证明。用户通过向链贡献工作量证明来获得新币。

密码学邮件列表上曾讨论过这一设计。哈尔·芬尼作了很好的高层概述:

我想提的一点是,从许多方面看,比特币其实是两个相互独立的想法:一是解决 James 在这里列出的那类问题,即创建一个全局一致但去中心化的数据库;二是将其用于一个类似戴伟 b-money(论文中引用了它)的系统,不过它基于交易/币,而非基于账户。正如 James 所强调的,解决这种全局性、大规模去中心化数据库的问题,可以说是更困难的部分。将工作量证明用作实现这一目的的工具是一个新颖的想法,我认为非常值得进一步评估。

Thanks for the pointers you gave to my Wei Dai's b-money paper and others.

I just released the open source implementation of my paper, Bitcoin v0.1. Details, download and screenshots are at www.bitcoin.org

The main idea of the system is the generation of a chain of hash based proof-of-work to create self extant proof of the majority consensus. Users get new coins by contributing proof-of-work to the chain.

There was a discussion of the design on the Cryptography mailing list. Hal Finney gave a good high-level overview:

One thing I might mention is that in many ways bitcoin is two independent ideas: a way of solving the kinds of problems James lists here, of creating a globally consistent but decentralized database; and then using it for a system similar to Wei Dai's b-money (which is referenced in the paper) but transaction/coin based rather than account based. Solving the global, massively decentralized database problem is arguably the harder part, as James emphasizes. The use of proof-of-work as a tool for this purpose is a novel idea well worth further review IMO.
