One of the two creators of the original meme coin DOGE, Billy Markus, has taken to the X app to publish a post about his plans to buy a house in the California state, where he lives.

原始迷因硬幣 DOGE 的兩位創造者之一比利·馬庫斯 (Billy Markus) 在 X 應用程式上發布了一篇帖子，介紹了他計劃在他居住的加利福尼亞州購買房屋的計劃。

However, he believes that the housing market could be fragile in the U.S. at the moment, or rather, Markus does not believe in his own luck should he purchase a house. In the X post, he wrote that if he ever decides to buy a house, "most likely the housing market crash will come minutes later."

不過，他認為目前美國的房地產市場可能很脆弱，或者更確切地說，馬庫斯不相信自己買房子的運氣。在 X 帖子中，他寫道，如果他決定買房，“很可能幾分鐘後房地產市場就會崩盤。”

Still, Markus states that prices for houses in California are quite high as they stand at roughly $2 million for a house under 1,500 square feet.

儘管如此，馬庫斯表示，加州的房屋價格相當高，1,500 平方英尺以下的房屋價格約為 200 萬美元。

According to data from Forbes, the average 30-year mortgage rate in the U.S. has risen for the seventh consecutive week and reached 7.79% this week. "Given current rate conditions, it's no wonder that year-over-year existing home sales sagged for the third consecutive month, slipping by 0.7%, with all four major U.S. regions posting declines, according to the National Association of Realtors (NAR)."

福布斯數據顯示，美國30年期抵押貸款平均利率已連續第七週上升，本週達7.79%。根據全國房地產經紀人協會 (NAR) 的數據，鑑於目前的利率狀況，現房銷售同比連續第三個月下滑也就不足為奇了，下降了 0.7%，美國所有四個主要地區均出現下降。 ”

At the start of the year, Markus admitted that he and the second co-founder of DOGE, Jackson Palmer, made "next to nothing" on Dogecoin as they only made this meme cryptocurrency as a parody of Bitcoin. But ironically, DOGE became popular.

今年年初，馬庫斯承認，他和 DOGE 的第二位聯合創始人 Jackson Palmer 在狗狗幣上“幾乎沒有賺到什麼”，因為他們只是將這種模因加密貨幣作為比特幣的模仿。但諷刺的是，DOGE 卻變得流行起來。

As for the meme coins that were made later on, Billy Markus stated without naming any particular assets, they were created with a goal to make money for the developers from gamblers.

至於後來製作的迷因幣，比利馬庫斯表示，沒有透露任何特定資產，創建它們的目的是為開發人員從賭徒身上賺錢。

However, Markus admitted, creators of some meme cryptocurrencies try to give their users some utility.

然而，馬庫斯承認，一些迷因加密貨幣的創建者試圖為用戶提供一些實用性。
