Popular meme asset Dogecoin (DOGE) is rising after Tesla CEO Elon Musk hints that the electric car company may accept DOGE payments in the future.

在特斯拉執行長馬斯克暗示該電動車公司未來可能接受 DOGE 付款後，流行的迷因資產狗狗幣 (DOGE) 正在上漲。

Speaking at Giga Berlin, a manufacturing plant for Tesla in Germany, the longtime Dogecoin proponent and billionaire was asked when Tesla would be accepting the dog-themed digital asset as payment for its vehicles.

這位長期支持狗狗幣的億萬富翁在德國特斯拉製造工廠 Giga Berlin 發表講話時被問及特斯拉何時會接受以狗為主題的數位資產作為其車輛的支付方式。

The business magnate responded that it could be a possibility in the future, noting that consumers can already use DOGE to purchase Tesla merchandise.

這位商業巨頭回應稱，這在未來是可能的，並指出消費者已經可以使用 DOGE 購買特斯拉商品。

“When can you buy a Tesla with Dogecoin? At some point, I think we should enable that. You can buy Tesla merch with DOGE, which is cool, so Dogecoin to the moon.”

「什麼時候可以用狗狗幣購買特斯拉？在某些時候，我認為我們應該啟用它。你可以用 DOGE 購買特斯拉商品，這很酷，所以狗狗幣可以登上月球。”

Musk goes on to explain that he first became a fan of DOGE after he realized that normal people were enthusiastic about it.

馬斯克接著解釋說，當他意識到普通人對 DOGE 充滿熱情後，他第一次成為了 DOGE 的粉絲。

“In fact, a lot of people maybe don’t know the reason that I actually ended up sort of endorsing Dogecoin was that I was walking around the factory at Tesla and some people, they were just working the line, not rich people or anything, and they said, ‘Can you support DOGE?’

「事實上，很多人可能不知道我最終支持狗狗幣的原因是，我在特斯拉的工廠裡走來走去，有些人只是在生產線上工作，而不是富人或其他人，他們說，“你能支持DOGE 嗎？”

And also, I was at SpaceX, walking the factory and some regular guys said ‘Hey, can you support DOGE?’ And I was like, ‘Hmm, you know what? DOGE is the people’s crypto, so I will support it because lots of rich people were supporting Bitcoin, but I was like, ‘Huh, if people in line want me to support DOGE, I will support DOGE. DOGE is for you.”

而且，我當時在 SpaceX，在工廠裡散步，一些普通人說『嘿，你能支持 DOGE 嗎？』我當時就想，『嗯，你知道嗎？ DOGE 是人民的加密貨幣，所以我會支持它，因為很多富人都支持比特幣，但我當時想，’嗯，如果排隊的人希望我支持 DOGE，我就會支持 DOGE。 DOGE 適合你。”

In the hours following Musk’s comments, DOGE leapt from a 24-hour low of $0.166 to a 24-hour high of $0.189, a nearly 14% jump. Dogecoin has leveled off since and is trading for $0.173 at time of writing, a 3.68% gain during the last 24 hours.

在馬斯克發表評論後的幾個小時內，DOGE 從 24 小時低點 0.166 美元躍升至 24 小時高點 0.189 美元，漲幅近 14%。此後，狗狗幣已趨於平穩，截至撰寫本文時，其交易價格為 0.173 美元，在過去 24 小時內上漲了 3.68%。
