在本文中,我们提供了比特币网络及其主要参与者的详细分析。我们使用大量公共和专有来源建立了一个新的数据库,将比特币地址与真实实体联系起来,并开发了一套广泛的算法来提取有关主要市场参与者行为的信息。我们对比特币生态系统进行了三大块分析。首先,我们分析了区块链上主要参与者的交易量和网络结构。其次,我们记录了作为验证协议骨干的挖掘者的集中度和区域组成,并确保区块链分类账的完整性。最后,我们分析了比特币最大持有者的所有权集中度。
In this paper, we provide detailed analyses of the Bitcoin network and its main participants. We build a novel database using a large number of public and proprietary sources to link Bitcoin addresses to real entities and develop an extensive suite of algorithms to extract information about the behavior of the main market participants. We conduct three major pieces of analysis of the Bitcoin eco-system. First, we analyze the transaction volume and network structure of the main participants on the blockchain. Second, we document the concentration and regional composition of the miners which are the backbone of the verification protocol and ensure the integrity of the blockchain ledger. Finally, we analyze the ownership concentration of the largest holders of Bitcoin.
