Blockchain developers QED Protocol and Nexus are preparing to launch a layer-2 (L2) scaling solution for the Dogecoin network, enabling smart contracts.

区块链开发商 QED Protocol 和 Nexus 正准备为狗狗币网络推出第 2 层 (L2) 扩展解决方案，以支持智能合约。

The L2, a zero-knowledge virtual machine (zkVM), aims to "allow the world's oldest and most popular memecoin to compete with Ethereum and Solana in the smart contract arena," QED and Nexus stated.

QED 和 Nexus 表示，L2 是一种零知识虚拟机 (zkVM)，旨在“让世界上最古老、最受欢迎的 memecoin 在智能合约领域与以太坊和 Solana 竞争”。

Dogecoin operates on a proof-of-work (PoW) blockchain like Bitcoin but with less computationally intensive transaction verifications and no supply limit. It currently lacks smart contract support.

狗狗币像比特币一样在工作量证明（PoW）区块链上运行，但计算密集型交易验证较少，并且没有供应限制。目前缺乏智能合约支持。

QED and Nexus believe the zkEVM on Dogecoin will enhance the network's capabilities.

The memecoin market has experienced rapid growth since 2024. Smart contract platforms for memecoins have proven profitable, such as Solana's (SOL) Pump.fun generating over $100 million in August.

自 2024 年以来，memecoin 市场经历了快速增长。memecoin 的智能合约平台已被证明是有利可图的，例如 Solana (SOL) Pump.fun 在 8 月份产生了超过 1 亿美元的收入。

The Dogecoin zkVM "will include tools that empower developers to create a variety of high-performance applications on the network, ranging from decentralized exchanges to NFTs," the announcement states.

公告称，Dogecoin zkVM“将包括一些工具，使开发人员能够在网络上创建各种高性能应用程序，从去中心化交易所到 NFT”。

Launched in 2013 as a parody of Bitcoin, DOGE now has a market capitalization of approximately $17 billion, according to CoinMarketCap. It is the original "memecoin" and is also used for micropayments and tipping.

根据 CoinMarketCap 的数据，DOGE 于 2013 年作为比特币的模仿品推出，目前市值约为 170 亿美元。它是最初的“memecoin”，也用于小额支付和小费。

QED has developed a zkVM scaling solution for Bitcoin to support smart contracts and low-latency transactions. Nexus operates Nexus zkVM, a modular scaling network based on zero-knowledge proofs.

QED 为比特币开发了 zkVM 扩展解决方案，以支持智能合约和低延迟交易。 Nexus 运营着 Nexus zkVM，这是一个基于零知识证明的模块化扩展网络。

Scaling solutions for PoW blockchains like Bitcoin are increasing. DefliLlama data shows the total value locked (TVL) on Bitcoin's L2s reached approximately $1.4 billion in September.

比特币等 PoW 区块链的扩展解决方案正在增加。 DefliLlama 数据显示，9 月份比特币 L2 的锁定总价值 (TVL) 达到约 14 亿美元。

"What we are doing with Dogecoin can certainly be replicated in other ecosystems... thanks to recent advancements in zero-knowledge technology," said Nexus' CEO, Daniel Marin.

Nexus 首席执行官丹尼尔·马林 (Daniel Marin) 表示：“得益于零知识技术的最新进展，我们对狗狗币所做的事情当然可以在其他生态系统中复制。”
