Elon Musk had considered the possibility of developing a social media platform based on blockchain technology and was heavily involved with the cryptocurrency Dogecoin, a biography of the billionaire has revealed.
据亿万富翁的传记透露,埃隆·马斯克曾考虑开发基于区块链技术的社交媒体平台的可能性,并大力参与加密货币狗狗币。
The book, which should go on sale later this month, also talks about a failed attempt by Sam Bankman-Fried to help Musk in his acquisition of Twitter.
这本书将于本月晚些时候上市,书中还谈到了萨姆·班克曼·弗里德 (Sam Bankman-Fried) 帮助马斯克收购 Twitter 的失败尝试。
How Involved Was Musk With Dogecoin?
马斯克如何参与狗狗币?
即将出版的这位亿万富翁传记的泄露页面显示,马斯克对狗狗币的参与程度远远超出了社区的认识。事实上,根据传记,马斯克一直在悄悄资助狗狗币的开发。狗狗币十多年前最初只是一个笑话,但由于马斯克的支持而迅速流行起来。马斯克对加密货币的评论也被认为影响了其价格。事实上,原告在涉及狗狗币的集体诉讼中指控他进行内幕交易并抬高资产价格。
Musk had sought to bring an end to the lawsuit in March, stating that simply tweeting about an asset in support of it is not unlawful. Musk had dubbed himself as the “Dogefather” in a tweet promoting an appearance on Saturday Night Live. He had also changed Twitter’s blue bird logo to the Shiba Inu logo of the DOGE crypto.
马斯克曾在三月份寻求结束诉讼,并表示简单地在推特上发布有关支持该资产的资产并不违法。马斯克在推特上自称为“教父”,宣传他在周六夜现场的亮相。他还将 Twitter 的蓝鸟徽标更改为 DOGE 加密货币的柴犬徽标。
A New Social Media Platform
一个新的社交媒体平台
A post by crypto journalist Colin Wu highlighted the other aspects of the biography, including developing a social media platform and Sam Bankman-Fried’s failed attempt to invest $5 billion in the acquisition of Twitter.
加密货币记者 Colin Wu 的一篇文章强调了传记的其他方面,包括开发社交媒体平台以及 Sam Bankman-Fried 投资 50 亿美元收购 Twitter 的失败尝试。
“The biography of Elon Musk, which will be published on September 12, revealed that he has been quietly funding the development of DOGECOIN; considered creating a social media based on blockchain and including payment; SBF ultimately failed to invest 5 billion to help acquire Twitter, and they think each other is crazy.”
将于 9 月 12 日出版的埃隆·马斯克传记透露,他一直在悄悄资助狗狗币的开发;考虑创建基于区块链并包括支付的社交媒体; SBF最终未能投资50亿美元帮助收购Twitter,他们都认为对方疯了。”
The leaked pages also discuss Musk’s idea of creating a social media platform where users could pay for verification. Over time, Musk’s brother Kimbal suggested that a new social media platform be built with the ideas Musk put forward. Musk was reportedly extremely excited by the idea of a social media platform where users could send money to one another, and creators would be paid for their stories, videos, and music.
泄露的页面还讨论了马斯克创建一个社交媒体平台的想法,用户可以在该平台上付费进行验证。随着时间的推移,马斯克的弟弟金巴尔建议用马斯克提出的想法建立一个新的社交媒体平台。据报道,马斯克对社交媒体平台的想法感到非常兴奋,用户可以在该平台上互相汇款,创作者将因其故事、视频和音乐而获得报酬。
此时,马斯克提到该平台可以使用狗狗币进行支付。马斯克还想开发一个“区块链社交媒体系统,可以像 Twitter 一样发送短信和支付。然而,马斯克随后以 440 亿美元收购了 Twitter。此后,Twitter 更名为 X,这与马斯克最初的想法是一致的。 X 已获得在多个州提供支付服务的许可。然而,没有迹象表明狗狗币将作为 X 上的支付方式实施。
Sam Bankman-Fried’s Failed Twitter Investment

The biography also talks about a failed attempt by the founder and ex-chief executive of the now-bankrupt FTX exchange to invest $5 billion and help Musk acquire Twitter. However, following the collapse of FTX, Musk stated that neither he nor Twitter had taken any investment from Sam Bankman-Fried or FTX. The biography on Musk, written by Walter Isaacson, is set for release on September 12.
该传记还谈到了现已破产的 FTX 交易所创始人兼前首席执行官试图投资 50 亿美元帮助马斯克收购 Twitter 的失败尝试。然而,在 FTX 倒闭后,马斯克表示,他和 Twitter 都没有接受 Sam Bankman-Fried 或 FTX 的任何投资。由沃尔特·艾萨克森 (Walter Isaacson) 撰写的马斯克传记将于 9 月 12 日发行。
