DOGE creator trolls disappointed Bitcoin investors - "what scam"

DOGE創造者巨魔讓比特幣投資者失望——“什麼騙局”

In his tweet published earlier today, Markus trolled those in the crypto space who expected the flagship cryptocurrency’s price to skyrocket “10x” within a few days after the Bitcoin halving was over (it happened on April 20 at block 840,000).

在今天早些時候發布的推文中，馬庫斯對加密貨幣領域的人進行了嘲諷，他們預計比特幣減半結束後幾天內旗艦加密貨幣的價格將飆升「10 倍」（減半發生在4 月20 日的區塊840,000）。

This was the fourth halving in Bitcoin’s history so far and it reduced block rewards by half – from 6.25 BTC to 3.125 BTC and down to 450 new Bitcoins generated per day, instead of 900 BTC before that, respectively.

這是比特幣歷史上迄今為止的第四次減半，它將區塊獎勵減少了一半——從6.25 BTC 減少到3.125 BTC，每天產生的新比特幣減少到450 個，而不是之前的900 BTC 。

The Dogecoin co-founder sarcastically wrote that it was “stupid” that Bitcoin “hasn’t 10x’d in price after the halving already.” He also mocked the sources of data about the crypto market and cryptocurrencies frequently chosen by inexperienced investors – videos on TikTik and chatrooms on Discord and Telegram, as well as posts on the Twitter/X platform. He even went as far as to assume that many of these disappointed newbie investors may start thinking that Bitcoin is a scam now.

這位狗狗幣聯合創始人諷刺地寫道，比特幣“在減半後價格還沒有上漲 10 倍”，這是“愚蠢的”。他還嘲笑了缺乏經驗的投資者經常選擇的加密貨幣市場和加密貨幣的數據來源——TikTik 上的影片、Discord 和 Telegram 上的聊天室，以及 Twitter/X 平台上的貼文。他甚至假設許多失望的新手投資者現在可能開始認為比特幣是一個騙局。

i think it’s stupid that bitcoin hasn’t 10x’d in price after the halving already i did a ton of research watching tiktok videos and chatting on alpha discord groups and telegrams and reading 𝕏 posts and i don’t get why i’m not super rich doing nothing yet what a scam

我認為比特幣在減半後價格還沒有上漲10 倍是很愚蠢的，我做了很多研究，觀看Tiktok 視頻，在alpha Discord 群組和電報上聊天，閱讀𝕏 帖子，但我不明白為什麼我不這麼做超級富豪什麼都不做卻是騙局

Markus's earlier "Bitcoin crash" prediction

馬庫斯早期的「比特幣崩盤」預測

As reported by U.Today earlier, three days before the halving, the DOGE co-creator published a tweet of dark irony, asking if the Bitcoin halving means that the BTC price “will get cut in half.”

根據《今日美國》早些時候報道，在減半前三天，這位 DOGE 聯合創始人發布了一條黑色諷刺的推文，詢問比特幣減半是否意味著 BTC 價格「將減半」。

Markus has always been skeptical about cryptocurrencies, particularly Bitcoin, being a good bet and has viewed them merely as a form of gambling, according to his earlier tweets. He has many times tweeted that he does not believe anyone can predict which way Bitcoin price will move – up or down with the most popular explanation cited by him being that the price rises because everybody buys and it drops because a lot of traders sell BTC.

根據他之前的推文，馬庫斯一直對加密貨幣（尤其是比特幣）持懷疑態度，認為加密貨幣只是一種賭博形式。他多次在推特上表示，他不相信任何人都能預測比特幣價格的走勢——上漲還是下跌，他引用的最流行的解釋是，價格上漲是因為每個人都在買入，而價格下跌是因為許多交易者賣出了比特幣。

One day before the halving, Bitcoin soared by almost 7%, adding roughly $5,000. Since then, BTC has gained 1.85%, after a series of small rises and falls.

減半前一天，比特幣飆升近 7%，價格上漲約 5,000 美元。此後，經過一系列小幅上漲和下跌，BTC上漲了1.85%。
