Kabosu, the dog behind the "doge" meme, has died after 14 years of internet stardom, according to her owner, Atsuko Sato.

根據卡博蘇 (Kabosu) 主人佐藤敦子 (Atsuko Sato) 介紹，卡博蘇是「doge」迷因背後的狗，在網紅 14 年後去世。

"She quietly passed away as if asleep while I caressed her," Sato wrote on her blog, thanking Kabosu's fans.

「當我撫摸她時，她就像睡著了一樣安靜地去世了，」佐藤在她的部落格上寫道，感謝卡博甦的粉絲。

Kabosu, also known as 'Kabochan', captured the hearts of millions worldwide and became an internet sensation. Her image, which inspired the creation of Dogecoin, symbolized the fun and whimsical nature of the cryptocurrency world.

Kabosu，也被稱為“Kabochan”，擄獲了全世界數百萬人的心，並在網路上引起轟動。她的形象激發了狗狗幣的創造，象徵著加密貨幣世界的樂趣和異想天開的本質。

Following Kabochan's death, the crypto community on X led by the Dogecoin foundation and the Dogecoin official X handle paid respect to the Japanese Shiba Inu which inspired a generation of online jokes and became the face of Dogecoin cryptocurrency. As reported, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin also expressed condolences at Kabosu's passing.

Kabochan 去世後，由狗狗幣基金會和狗狗幣官方 X 帳號領導的 X 加密社群向日本柴犬表示敬意，它激發了一代網路笑話，並成為狗狗幣加密貨幣的代言人。據報道，以太坊聯合創始人 Vitalik Buterin 也對卡博甦的去世表示哀悼。

While the Dogecoin community mourns the loss of its iconic mascot, some malicious actors are attempting to take advantage of the community's emotional response. Dogecoin Foundation's Timothy Stebbing has flagged one of such fake Dogecoin accounts that emerged after Kabosu's death.

當狗狗幣社群哀悼失去其標誌性吉祥物時，一些惡意行為者正試圖利用社群的情緒反應。狗狗幣基金會的 Timothy Stebbing 標記了卡博蘇死後出現的一個此類虛假狗狗幣帳戶。

The phony Dogecoin X account which could only be identified upon a closer look was promoting a fake NFT collection launch in honor of the late Kabosu according to the screenshot shared by Stebbing who urged the Dogecoin community to report such accounts.

根據 Stebbing 分享的截圖，只有仔細觀察才能識別出虛假的 Dogecoin X 帳戶正在宣傳假 NFT 系列的推出，以紀念已故的 Kabosu，Stebbing 敦促 Dogecoin 社區報告此類帳戶。

The warning emphasizes the importance of vigilance among Dogecoin users, urging them to verify the authenticity of social media accounts or fundraising initiatives claiming to honor Kabosu. They should also stand united against those who seek to exploit such a somber moment for personal gain by reporting such accounts.

該警告強調了狗狗幣用戶保持警惕的重要性，敦促他們核實社交媒體帳戶或聲稱尊重 Kabosu 的籌款活動的真實性。他們也應該團結起來，反對那些試圖利用如此嚴峻的時刻舉報此類帳戶來謀取私利的人。
