| (Bonus: just like Bitcoin is a world-wide Excel spreadsheet that is formed by lots of computers talking to each other) | ||
| （附：就像比特币一样，比特币是一种由很多能够相互连通的计算机组成的世界级的 Excel 表格。） |

（附：就像比特币一样，比特币是一种由很多能够相互连通的计算机组成的世界级的 Excel 表格。） => （附：就像比特币是一种由很多能够相互连通的计算机组成的世界级的 Excel 表格一样。）
因为原文这里并不是想说比特币是这样子的一种excel表格，而是一种类比，原翻译成了对比特币的一种定义。

| Disadvantage: it's actually a really slow computer because... all of those thousands of computers that form the world-wide computer need to talk to each other first. That's a lot of talking. And it's expensive. Because the people who own these thousands of computers, all want a bit back for their electricity and the fact they bought a computer just to talk to other computers. | ||
| 劣势：这实际上是一台非常慢的计算机，因为组成了这个世界级计算机的成千上万台计算机们首要的任务就是相互通信。在这个过程中，包含了很多的通信过程。而且这个过程非常昂贵。因为这几千台电脑的拥有着，都想要从他们耗费的电费中获取到利益，事实上，他们买电脑只是为了和其他电脑交流。 |

| Bonus question: ELI5 Investing in Ethereum (owning ETH) is investing what exactly? | ||
| 附加问题：投资以太坊（拥有以太币）到底是在投资什么？ |
There was a problem hiding this comment.
（附加问题）=>（附问题）
和下面的 Bonus 类似，作者使用该单词要表达 附或者注 的意思，如果这里直接翻译成 附加问题，容易造成误解为额外的问题。

（以太坊是一台由许多能够相互连通的计算机所组成的世界级的计算机。）=>（以太坊是一台世界级的超级计算机，由许多能够相互连通的计算机组成。）
建议将此句拆分成两个单句，更容易理解。

| Advantage: no one can turn it off, no one can tamper with it, and it runs exactly as programmed - because no one can, at the same time, break into the houses of all of the thousands of people running the lots of computers talking to each other - and turn those off or change something about the way they run). | ||
| 优势：没有人能够关闭这台计算机，也没有人能够篡改它，它完全按照既定的程序来运行 —— 因为没有人能够在同一时间闯进成千上万个运行着这些相互连通的计算机的家庭中，然后关闭这些计算机或者修改程序的运行方式。 |

恩，我就是觉得这样改一下读起来舒服一点，你爱改不改呀~

| Oh my God, those answers could be better! OP, Ethereum is just a decentralized computer, and nothing else. Think about Digital Ocean, Linode, Amazon. Those companies allow you to borrow computers, so that you can upload programs on them, and run services, right? Ethereum is exactly the same thing. There is one key difference, though: there isn't a single party behind it. Once you upload a program on Ethereum, it can't be turned off - not by you, not by a hacker, not by a government. And that is it, really. Is that not clear enough? There is no mystery, nothing else, that's all. | ||
| 天啊，这些答案答得真好！以太坊就是一台分布式电脑，没有什么了不起的。想想 Digital Ocean，Linode，亚马逊。这些公司允许你租借云主机，这样你就可以在上面上传程序，运行服务，对吧？以太坊就是这样一件事。不过，有一个关键的区别：它背后没有一个组织。一旦你在以太坊上上传了一个程序，它就不可能被关闭 —— 你，黑客，政府都不能关闭。就是这样，真的。这还不够清楚吗？没有什么神秘的，没有别的，就是这样。 |

（以太坊就是一台分布式电脑）=>（以太坊就是一台去中心化的电脑）
decentralized 应该翻译成去中心化的
