Blockchain developers QED Protocol and Nexus are preparing to launch a layer-2 (L2) scaling solution for the Dogecoin network, enabling smart contracts.

區塊鏈開發商 QED Protocol 和 Nexus 正準備為狗狗幣網路推出第 2 層 (L2) 擴展解決方案，以支援智慧合約。

The L2, a zero-knowledge virtual machine (zkVM), aims to "allow the world's oldest and most popular memecoin to compete with Ethereum and Solana in the smart contract arena," QED and Nexus stated.

QED 和 Nexus 表示，L2 是一種零知識虛擬機 (zkVM)，旨在「讓世界上最古老、最受歡迎的 memecoin 在智慧合約領域與以太坊和 Solana 競爭」。

Dogecoin operates on a proof-of-work (PoW) blockchain like Bitcoin but with less computationally intensive transaction verifications and no supply limit. It currently lacks smart contract support.

狗狗幣像比特幣一樣在工作量證明（PoW）區塊鏈上運行，但計算密集型交易驗證較少，且沒有供應限制。目前缺乏智能合約支援。

QED and Nexus believe the zkEVM on Dogecoin will enhance the network's capabilities.

The memecoin market has experienced rapid growth since 2024. Smart contract platforms for memecoins have proven profitable, such as Solana's (SOL) Pump.fun generating over $100 million in August.

自 2024 年以來，memecoin 市場經歷了快速成長。

The Dogecoin zkVM "will include tools that empower developers to create a variety of high-performance applications on the network, ranging from decentralized exchanges to NFTs," the announcement states.

公告稱，Dogecoin zkVM「將包括一些工具，使開發人員能夠在網路上創建各種高效能應用程序，從去中心化交易所到 NFT」。

Launched in 2013 as a parody of Bitcoin, DOGE now has a market capitalization of approximately $17 billion, according to CoinMarketCap. It is the original "memecoin" and is also used for micropayments and tipping.

根據 CoinMarketCap 的數據，DOGE 於 2013 年作為比特幣的模仿品推出，目前市值約為 170 億美元。它是最初的“memecoin”，也用於小額支付和小費。

QED has developed a zkVM scaling solution for Bitcoin to support smart contracts and low-latency transactions. Nexus operates Nexus zkVM, a modular scaling network based on zero-knowledge proofs.

QED 為比特幣開發了 zkVM 擴展解決方案，以支援智慧合約和低延遲交易。 Nexus 經營 Nexus zkVM，這是一個基於零知識證明的模組化擴展網路。

Scaling solutions for PoW blockchains like Bitcoin are increasing. DefliLlama data shows the total value locked (TVL) on Bitcoin's L2s reached approximately $1.4 billion in September.

比特幣等 PoW 區塊鏈的擴展解決方案正在增加。 DefliLlama 數據顯示，9 月比特幣 L2 的鎖定總價值 (TVL) 達到約 14 億美元。

"What we are doing with Dogecoin can certainly be replicated in other ecosystems... thanks to recent advancements in zero-knowledge technology," said Nexus' CEO, Daniel Marin.

Nexus 執行長 Daniel Marin 表示：“得益於零知識技術的最新進展，我們對狗狗幣所做的事情當然可以在其他生態系統中複製。”
