IT engineer Billy Markus, who created the leading meme cryptocurrency Dogecoin together with Jackson Palmer in 2013 as a parody on Bitcoin, has shared his take on why DOGE transactions reached a major daily record of more than a million earlier this week. This surge in transactions was also followed by a substantial DOGE price rise.

IT 工程師比利·馬庫斯(Billy Markus) 於2013 年與傑克遜·帕爾默(Jackson Palmer) 一起創造了領先的模因加密貨幣狗狗幣(Dogecoin)，作為對比特幣的模仿。本週早些時候，他分享了他對為何DOGE 交易量達到每日超過100 萬筆的主要記錄的看法。交易量激增之後，DOGE 價格也大幅上漲。

DOGE transactions surge, Billy Markus suggests big reason

比利馬庫斯 (Billy Markus) 指出 DOGE 交易激增的重要原因

An anonymous DOGE-themed account @itsALLrisky with an impressive 346,400 followers on the X platform shared a screenshot that shows a massive spike in Dogecoin transactions — it surpassed 1 million.

一個以 DOGE 為主題的匿名帳戶 @itsALLrisky 在 X 平台上擁有令人印象深刻的 346,400 名追隨者，分享了一張屏幕截圖，顯示狗狗幣交易量大幅飆升 - 超過 100 萬筆。

Data provided by Blockchair confirms that DOGE record. Billy Markus, who goes by the nickname Shibetoshi Nakamoto on X, suggested that the most likely reason is that the Dogecoin chain is being actively used for transferring Ordinals and s-coins.

Blockchair 提供的數據證實了 DOGE 的記錄。比利馬庫斯（Billy Markus）在 X 上的暱稱是 Shibetoshi Nakamoto，他表示最有可能的原因是狗狗幣鏈被積極用於轉移序號和 s-coin。

Within the Dogecoin community, DOGE Ordinals are known as "Doginals," and they are built thanks to the recently launched DRC-20 token standard on the Dogecoin chain. Now, users will be able to create crypto tokens and NFTs on this blockchain. This is what Markus was referring to in his comment.

在狗狗幣社群中，DOGE Ordinals 被稱為“Doginals”，它們的構建得益於狗狗幣鏈上最近推出的 DRC-20 代幣標準。現在，用戶將能夠在該區塊鏈上創建加密代幣和 NFT。這就是馬庫斯在他的評論中所指的。

While the first major blockchain to allow launching NFTs and tokens via its ERC-21 and ERC-20 standards was Ethereum, it was followed by other chains, such as Solana and others launching similar functionality. Not so long ago, the Bitcoin chain also began to provide tools for creating NFTs (Ordinals).

雖然第一個允許透過其 ERC-21 和 ERC-20 標準推出 NFT 和代幣的主要區塊鏈是以太坊，但其他鏈也緊隨其後，例如 Solana 和其他推出類似功能的鏈。不久前，比特幣鏈上也開始提供創建NFT（Ordinals）的工具。

About five months ago, the Dogecoin network joined that cohort.

大約五個月前，狗狗幣網路加入了這個群體。

In June, when DRC-20 was launched, the transaction spike on the DOGE chain surpassed 2 million within a single day.

6月，DRC-20上線時，DOGE鏈上單日交易量突破200萬筆。

Elon Musk thanks DOGE co-founder personally

伊隆馬斯克親自感謝 DOGE 共同創辦人

Elon Musk, a vocal Dogecoin fan and its big holder, is known to have an "internet friendship" with DOGE creator Markus. They often exchange comments on the X app and seem to be on the same page on various topics and issues.

馬斯克 (Elon Musk) 是狗狗幣的忠實粉絲和大持有者，眾所周知，他與狗狗幣創始人馬庫斯有著「網路友誼」。他們經常在 X 應用程式上交換評論，並且似乎在各種主題和問題上意見一致。

Billy Markus often supports Musk and his innovations on X, since he is a frequent user of this platform and Musk has introduced several tools that allow creators to improve their content making (such as longreads and live video broadcasting) and also make some profit on that — the Monetization and Subscription features.

Billy Markus 經常支持Musk 和他在X 上的創新，因為他是這個平台的頻繁用戶，並且Musk 推出了多種工具，允許創作者改進他們的內容製作（例如長讀和直播視訊廣播），並從中賺取一些利潤— 貨幣化和訂閱功能。

On Friday, Markus tweeted that the community should really support the X app as much as they can since Elon Musk is doing his best to protect the freedom of speech on it. He then got a comment from the X owner where he thanked the DOGE co-founder and for the first time called him by name.

週五，馬庫斯在推特上表示，社區應該盡可能地支持 X 應用程序，因為伊隆馬斯克正在盡最大努力保護該應用程式的言論自由。隨後，他收到了 X 所有者的評論，他在評論中感謝了 DOGE 聯合創始人，並第一次叫出了他的名字。

This made it look like this gratitude was personal for Musk this time.

這使得這次的感激之情看起來像是針對馬斯克個人的。
