Musk posted a video about the first launch of new Starlink-to-Phone satellites. These satellites will be able to connect directly to users’ smartphones, the video reveals.

马斯克发布了一段有关首次发射新型“星链手机”卫星的视频。视频显示，这些卫星将能够直接连接到用户的智能手机。

Just three years ago, Starlink launched the first service for its paying customers in the U.S. with SpaceX. Today, the company provides 2.3 million households and organizations based in over 70 countries around the world with high-speed internet. Currently, Starlink is the biggest satellite internet connection provider in the world by overall number of users.

就在三年前，Starlink 与 SpaceX 合作为其在美国的付费客户推出了首项服务。如今，该公司为全球 70 多个国家的 230 万个家庭和组织提供高速互联网。目前，按用户总数计算，星链是全球最大的卫星互联网连接提供商。

The company’s new satellites that are capable of connecting the internet directly to users’ phones are called “Direct-to-Cell.” This service will be operating thanks to recent partnerships with local U.S. wireless internet providers, such as T-Mobil, the video mentions. Smartphones can be connected to these new Starlink satellites even in locations with no regular internet connection available.

该公司的新卫星能够将互联网直接连接到用户的手机，称为“Direct-to-Cell”。视频中提到，这项服务的运营得益于最近与 T-Mobil 等美国当地无线互联网提供商的合作。即使在没有常规互联网连接的地方，智能手机也可以连接到这些新的星链卫星。

In response, Musk received numerous comments showing the excitement of users over the new product. Among them were many tweets posted by crypto-themed accounts, some reminding Musk that he intended to send Dogecoin to the moon with SpaceX.

作为回应，马斯克收到了大量评论，显示出用户对新产品的兴奋。其中有许多加密主题账户发布的推文，其中一些提醒马斯克，他打算与 SpaceX 一起将狗狗币送上月球。

X platform’s speed temporarily falling

X平台速度暂时下降

Also today, Musk published a tweet addressing his apologies to the X platform community. He stated that the X social media network may have had some issues and low working speed. But now, according to Musk, the team has linked additional resources to support it, and X should resume working at a normal speed. Many crypto-related accounts also responded enthusiastically, including Dogecoin cofounder Billy Markus.

同样在今天，马斯克发布了一条推文，向 X 平台社区表达歉意。他表示X社交媒体网络可能存在一些问题并且工作速度较低。但现在，根据马斯克的说法，该团队已经链接了额外的资源来支持它，X 应该会以正常速度恢复工作。许多与加密货币相关的账户也做出了热情的回应，其中包括狗狗币联合创始人比利·马库斯(Billy Markus)。

It should be noted that Elon Musk is favored by the community on Twitter as many expect Musk to introduce cryptocurrency payments on this platform at some point in the future — at least to integrate Dogecoin for that purpose. As for Musk, several times he stated that the X/Twitter platform will not be launching its native digital currency.

值得注意的是，埃隆·马斯克在 Twitter 上受到社区的青睐，因为许多人预计马斯克将在未来某个时候在该平台上引入加密货币支付——至少为此目的整合狗狗币。至于马斯克，他多次表示X/Twitter平台不会推出其原生数字货币。

Still, over the past several months, Twitter has been securing licenses for payments processing in various U.S. states, which has been heating up the excitement of the cryptocurrency community.

尽管如此，在过去的几个月里，Twitter 一直在美国各州获得支付处理许可证，这让加密货币社区变得更加兴奋。
