他在这片文章里通过统计分析指出,目前78%的 bitcoin从未在市面上流通,根据历史交易
记录判断,目前市面上流通的绝大多数bitcoin来自于2010年的一个单次交易
结论说,有一个人大约持有了一半的bitcoin
The Bitcoin system is the best known and most widely used alternative
payment scheme, but so far it was very dicult to get accurate information
about how it is used in practice. In this paper
we describe a large number of statistical properties of the Bitcoin
transaction graph, which contains all the transactions which were carried
out by all the users until May 13 th 2012. We discovered
that most of the minted bitcoins remain dormant in addresses which had never
participated in any outgoing transactions. We found out that there is a
huge number of tiny transactions which move only a small fraction of a
single bitcoin, but there are also hundreds of transactions which move more
than 50,000 bitcoins. We analyzed all these large transactions by following
in detail the way these sums were accumulated and the way they were
dispersed, and realized
that almost all these large transactions were descendants of a single
transaction which was carried out in November 2010. Finally, we noted that
the subgraph which contains these large transactions along with their
neighborhood has many strange looking structures which could be an attempt
to conceal the existence and relationship between these transactions, but
such an attempt can be foiled
by following the money trail in a suciently persistent way
