“If you take offense to this you're not retarded enough to be in crypto,” Markus jokingly concluded, adding a “ROFL” emoji to his tweet. Explaining where this thought came from initially, he published a screenshot with a message dated December 8, 2013, from the Bitcoin Forum, where to a question about DOGE if it is supposed to be retarded on purpose, responded, “Yes, it is.”

马库斯开玩笑地总结道：“如果你对此感到生气，那么你的智商还不足以进入加密领域。”他在推文中添加了一个“ROFL”表情符号。在解释这个想法最初的来源时，他发布了一张屏幕截图，其中包含一条来自比特币论坛的日期为 2013 年 12 月 8 日的消息，当有人问到 DOGE 是否应该被故意延迟时，他回答说：“是的，确实如此。 ”

Dogecoin soars 18% overnight

狗狗币一夜暴涨18%

Over the last 24 hours, the largest meme cryptocurrency by market capitalization value has printed a staggering increase of 22.76%, reaching the $0.1501 level. By now, DOGE has rolled back a little, dropping to $.1456 – a 3.21% decline.

在过去 24 小时内，市值最大的 meme 加密货币上涨了 22.76%，达到 0.1501 美元的水平。截至目前，DOGE 已小幅回落，跌至 0.1456 美元，跌幅为 3.21%。

Overall, since the start of the week, DOGE has staged a staggering rise of 73.28%.

总体而言，自本周开始以来，DOGE已经出现了73.28%的惊人涨幅。

The massive increase in the Dogecoin price was largely due to the recent upsurge of the “crypto market locomotive” – Bitcoin. Since the week began, BTC has soared by 21.74%, reaching the monstrous high of $64,000 briefly at some point. By now, Bitcoin has rolled back below $62,000 and is exchanging hands at $61,990 at the time of this writing.

狗狗币价格的大幅上涨很大程度上得益于近期“加密货币市场火车头”——比特币的热潮。自本周开始以来，BTC 已飙升 21.74%，曾短暂触及 64,000 美元的惊人高位。到目前为止，比特币已回落至 62,000 美元以下，在撰写本文时，其交易价格为 61,990 美元。

The Bitcoin rise was fueled by the recent clamor and institutional excitement about spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds. The Security and Exchange Commission finally issued a green light on them on January 11 after various hedge funds, mainly Grayscale, spent nearly a decade lobbying their approval and launch. The largest spot-based Bitcoin ETF is currently BlackRock that is holding a whopping $10 billion worth of Bitcoin – this epic milestone was reached over the past week as BlackRock left the rest of the ETFs far behind.

最近对现货比特币交易所交易基金的喧嚣和机构兴奋推动了比特币的上涨。在各种对冲基金（主要是灰度）花了近十年的时间游说它们的批准和推出之后，美国证券交易委员会最终于 1 月 11 日为它们开了绿灯。目前最大的现货比特币 ETF 是贝莱德 (BlackRock)，该公司持有价值高达 100 亿美元的比特币——这一史诗般的里程碑是在过去一周实现的，贝莱德将其他 ETF 远远抛在了后面。

The other ETF providers include Fidelity, Bitwise, VanEck.
