The World Economic Forum’s annual meeting in Davos last week saw a heated discussion on the cryptocurrency industry's need for precise regulation, leading to a dismissive view of meme coins, particularly Dogecoin (DOGE). Ripple Labs CEO Brad Garlinghouse joined the chorus of skeptics, expressing doubt about the utility of Dogecoin and naming Elon Musk as the "central actor" in its market dynamics.

上周在达沃斯举行的世界经济论坛年会上，人们对加密货币行业需要进行精确监管进行了激烈的讨论，导致人们对模因币，尤其是狗狗币（DOGE）持轻视态度。 Ripple Labs 首席执行官布拉德·加林豪斯 (Brad Garlinghouse) 加入了怀疑论者的行列，对狗狗币的实用性表示怀疑，并将埃隆·马斯克 (Elon Musk) 称为其市场动态的“核心参与者”。

During the panel discussion titled "Clear-Eyed About Crypto," Garlinghouse voiced his skepticism, stating, "I don't get it," in reference to "unregulated cryptocurrencies." He further questioned the purpose of Dogecoin, emphasizing his inability to see its utility. Garlinghouse's remarks echoed the sentiments of the panel, which concluded that the industry requires more precise regulation.

在题为“对加密货币的清醒认识”的小组讨论中，加林豪斯表达了他的怀疑态度，他在提到“不受监管的加密货币”时表示，“我不明白”。他进一步质疑狗狗币的目的，强调他无法看到它的实用性。加林豪斯的言论呼应了该小组的观点，该小组得出的结论是，该行业需要更精确的监管。

the super dumb thing about this is dogecoin is essentially the same thing as bitcoin with mildly different parameters and a dog mascot so this is like saying “i totally get the euro, but the yen is nonsense”just little brains pretending to be smart pic.twitter.com/bZi8S3ASCZ

最愚蠢的事情是，狗狗币本质上与比特币是一样的，只是参数略有不同，还有一只狗吉祥物，所以这就像在说“我完全明白欧元，但日元是胡说八道”，只是小脑袋假装聪明而已。 twitter.com/bZi8S3ASCZ

Responding to Garlinghouse's comments, Dogecoin cofounder Billy Markus, also known as Shibetoshi Nakamoto, took to X (formerly Twitter) to defend Dogecoin. Markus compared Dogecoin to Bitcoin (BTC), highlighting their fundamental similarities with minor variations. He went on to draw a humorous analogy, suggesting that it is akin to saying, "I totally get the euro, but the yen is nonsense."

针对加林豪斯的评论，狗狗币联合创始人比利·马库斯（Billy Markus，又名 Shibetoshi Nakamoto）在 X（前身为 Twitter）上为狗狗币辩护。马库斯将狗狗币与比特币（BTC）进行了比较，强调了它们的基本相似之处和细微的差异。他接着打了一个幽默的比喻，暗示这就像在说：“我完全明白欧元，但日元是胡说八道。”

Dogecoin’s potential utility

狗狗币的潜在效用

Notably, Dogecoin experienced a 14% surge in its price on Sunday. The surge followed the announcement of a specialized payment account represented by the username @Xpayments on X. The platform’s owner Elon Musk has shown commitment to this venture, which was evident through the acquisition of licenses for money operations in multiple U.S. states.

值得注意的是，狗狗币周日的价格上涨了 14%。在X上宣布以用户名@X payments为代表的专门支付账户后，这一数字激增。该平台的所有者埃隆·马斯克(Elon Musk)已经表现出了对这一合资企业的承诺，这一点通过在美国多个州获得货币运营许可证就可以看出。

Reports suggest that X is gearing up to introduce peer-to-peer payments, with Musk hinting at potential public availability by mid-2024. This development adds an interesting dimension to the ongoing debate, as Dogecoin's price surge coincides with Elon Musk's active involvement in a project related to X payments.

有报道称，X 正准备推出点对点支付，马斯克暗示可能会在 2024 年中期推出。这一进展为正在进行的争论增添了一个有趣的维度，因为狗狗币的价格飙升恰逢埃隆·马斯克积极参与与 X 支付相关的项目。

Overall, the clash of opinions between Garlinghouse and Markus highlights the diversity of perspectives within the cryptocurrency community. As the industry continues to evolve, debates around the utility and regulation of different cryptocurrencies are likely to intensify, shaping the future landscape of the digital asset space.

总体而言，加林豪斯和马库斯之间的意见冲突凸显了加密货币社区内观点的多样性。随着行业的不断发展，围绕不同加密货币的实用性和监管的争论可能会加剧，从而塑造数字资产领域的未来格局。
