DOGE creator trolls disappointed Bitcoin investors - "what scam"

DOGE创造者巨魔让比特币投资者失望——“什么骗局”

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).

在今天早些时候发布的推文中，马库斯对加密货币领域的那些人进行了嘲讽，他们预计比特币减半结束后几天内旗舰加密货币的价格将飙升“10 倍”（减半发生在 4 月 20 日的区块 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.

这是比特币历史上迄今为止的第四次减半，它将区块奖励减少了一半——从 6.25 BTC 减少到 3.125 BTC，每天生成的新比特币减少到 450 个，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.

这位狗狗币联合创始人讽刺地写道，比特币“在减半后价格还没有上涨 10 倍”，这是“愚蠢的”。他还嘲笑了缺乏经验的投资者经常选择的有关加密货币市场和加密货币的数据来源——TikTik 上的视频、Discord 和 Telegram 上的聊天室，以及 Twitter/X 平台上的帖子。他甚至假设许多失望的新手投资者现在可能开始认为比特币是一个骗局。

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

我认为比特币在减半后价格还没有上涨 10 倍是很愚蠢的，我做了很多研究，观看 Tiktok 视频，在 alpha Discord 群组和电报上聊天，阅读𝕏 帖子，但我不明白为什么我不这么做超级富豪什么都不做却是个骗局

Markus's earlier "Bitcoin crash" prediction

马库斯早期的“比特币崩盘”预测

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.”

据《今日美国》早些时候报道，在减半前三天，这位 DOGE 联合创始人发布了一条黑色讽刺的推文，询问比特币减半是否意味着 BTC 价格“将减半”。

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.

根据他之前的推文，马库斯一直对加密货币（尤其是比特币）持怀疑态度，认为加密货币只是一种赌博形式。他多次在推特上表示，他不相信任何人都能预测比特币价格的走势——上涨还是下跌，他引用的最流行的解释是，价格上涨是因为每个人都在买入，而价格下跌是因为许多交易者卖出了比特币。

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.

减半前一天，比特币飙升近 7%，价格上涨约 5,000 美元。此后，经过一系列小幅上涨和下跌，BTC上涨了1.85%。
