最早的时候，谷歌搜索的网址是挂在斯坦福大学的网站上的。谷歌的创始人拉里·佩奇和谢尔盖·布林在1997年发表的论文中说：
“我们认为由广告商来赞助搜索引擎，将会使得搜索引擎的返回结果受到广告商的需求的影响，从而偏离真正的用户需求。广告越多，搜索引擎的搜索质量就越差。正因为广告商的存在会极大影响搜索引擎的质量，我们相信我们的社会需要一个搜索质量优秀、排序公正透明、由学术界监督的搜索引擎。” source

Bitcoin is built on a distributed digital record called a blockchain. As the name implies, blockchain is a linked body of data, made up of units called blocks that contain information about each and every transaction, including date and time, total value, buyer and seller, and a unique identifying code for each exchange. Entries are strung together in chronological order, creating a digital chain of blocks. “Once a block is added to the blockchain, it becomes accessible to anyone who wishes to view it, acting as a public ledger of cryptocurrency transactions,” says Stacey Harris, consultant for Pelicoin, a network of cryptocurrency ATMs. Blockchain is decentralized, which means it’s not controlled by any one organization. “It’s like a Google Doc that anyone can work on,” says Buchi Okoro, CEO and co-founder of African cryptocurrency exchange Quidax. “Nobody owns it, but anyone who has a link can contribute to it. And as different people update it, your copy also gets updated.”
