Dubai: What is sparking the rise of Dogecoin again after a period of lull? The value of the meme cryptocurrency jumped nearly 20 per cent after its vocal supporter Elon Musk confirmed late last week that a new payment feature is being rolled out on his X (formerly Twitter) platform. But why is that?

杜拜：是什麼促使狗狗幣在一段平靜期後再次崛起？在其直言不諱的支持者 Elon Musk上週晚些時候確認其X（前身為Twitter）平台正在推出新的支付功能後，這種迷因加密貨幣的價值躍升了近20 %。但這是為什麼呢？

The latest spike has also been fuelled by a spike in interest worldwide, as indicated by Google trends, for the word ‘Dogecoin’ in the same week when US president elect Donald Trump announced that Musk would head a new agency, called the Department of Government Efficiency, or ‘DOGE’ for short.

正如Google趨勢所示，全球範圍內對「狗狗幣」一詞的興趣激增也推動了最新的飆升，就在同一周，美國當選總統唐納德·川普宣布馬斯克將領導一個名為政府部的新機構效率，簡稱「DOGE」。

“Musk continues to influence the crypto space. His tweets and statements often lead to spikes in Dogecoin's price and popularity,” explained Brian Deshell, a UAE-based cryptocurrency trader and analyst.

「馬斯克繼續影響加密貨幣領域。他的推文和聲明經常導致狗狗幣的價格和受歡迎程度飆升，」阿聯酋加密貨幣交易員和分析師 Brian Deshell 解釋道。

“Musk's involvement with Twitter (now X) and his support for Dogecoin as a potential 'currency' for transactions on the platform has reignited interest in the cryptocurrency. As crypto markets go through cycles, altcoins like Dogecoin often see increased interest when Bitcoin's price stabilises or grows.”

「馬斯克對 Twitter（現在的 X）的參與以及他對狗狗幣作為平台上交易的潛在『貨幣』的支持重新點燃了人們對加密貨幣的興趣。隨著加密貨幣市場經歷週期，當比特幣價格穩定或上漲時，像狗狗幣這樣的山寨幣通常會受到更大的關注。

What drives the price of Dogecoin up?

是什麼推動狗狗幣價格上漲？

Dogecoin is often seen as a "safer" bet in the altcoin space, offering both novelty and volatility that attract speculative investors. There are signs of Dogecoin being used more frequently for transactions, especially on platforms that support cryptocurrencies.

狗狗幣通常被視為山寨幣領域的「更安全」賭注，提供新穎性和波動性，吸引投機投資者。有跡象表明狗狗幣被更頻繁地用於交易，特別是在支援加密貨幣的平台上。

“Some payment processors have integrated Dogecoin, making it easier for users to spend and trade it. After a down period in 2022 and early 2023, the overall cryptocurrency market has been experiencing renewed energy,” said Brody Dunn, an investment manager at a UAE-based asset advisory.

「一些支付處理器整合了狗狗幣，使用戶更容易消費和交易。經過 2022 年和 2023 年初的低迷期後，整個加密貨幣市場正在經歷新的活力，」阿聯酋一家資產諮詢公司的投資經理布羅迪·鄧恩 (Brody Dunn) 表示。

“As confidence returns to the market, many investors and traders turn to familiar assets like Dogecoin. This, combined with the ongoing trend of digital currencies gaining traction, have fuelled the resurgence of Dogecoin's popularity.”

「隨著市場信心回歸，許多投資者和交易者轉向狗狗幣等熟悉的資產。再加上數位貨幣不斷受到關注的趨勢，推動了狗狗幣的重新流行。

The price of Dogecoin is often attracted by the attention of online supporters, who dubbed themselves the ‘Doge Army’, as well as high-profile investors like Musk, Mark Cuban, and Snoop Dogg.

狗狗幣的價格經常受到自稱為「狗狗軍團」的線上支持者以及馬斯克、馬克·庫班和史努比狗狗等知名投資者的關注。

As a result, Dogecoin's price soared to an all-time high of $0.73 (Dh2.68) on May 8, 2021 -- which represented a 47,279 per cent gain from its earliest trading price of $0.001540753 (0.57fils) on January 23, 2014. That rally would have turned a $10,000 (Dh36,730) investment into $4.7 (Dh17.26) million.

結果，狗狗幣的價格於 2021 年 5 月 8 日飆升至 0.73 美元（Dh2.68）的歷史新高，較 2014 年 1 月 23 日的最早交易價格 0.001540753 美元（0.57fils）上漲了 47,279%這次反彈將使10,000 美元（36,730 迪拉姆）的投資變成4.7 美元（1726 萬迪拉姆）。

Dogecoin turning out to be a safe bet?

狗狗幣被證明是一個安全的賭注？

“Two major challenges prevented Dogecoin from becoming the next Bitcoin or Ethereum. First, Dogecoin is an inflationary token that doesn't have a supply cap or limited in supply,” explained Deshell.

「兩大挑戰阻止狗狗幣成為下一個比特幣或以太幣。首先，狗狗幣是一種通膨代幣，沒有供應上限，也沒有供應限制。

“There are 150 billion Dogecoins in circulation, and that supply is growing by about 10,000 tokens per minute. Bitcoin has a maximum supply of 21 million tokens, and 19.8 millions of those tokens have already been mined. That scarcity makes Bitcoin more like gold than Dogecoin.

「流通中的狗狗幣有 1500 億枚，而且供應量以每分鐘約 10,000 枚的速度增長。比特幣的最大供應量為 2,100 萬個代幣，其中 1,980 萬個代幣已經被開採。這種稀缺性使比特幣比狗狗幣更像黃金。

“Second, Dogecoin doesn't natively support smart contracts, which are used to develop other crypto assets. While Dogecoin's tech is faster than Bitcoin's, its inflationary nature will prevent it from being as scarce as Bitcoin. Its lack of support for smart contracts also limits its appeal among developers.”

「其次，狗狗幣本身並不支援用於開發其他加密資產的智慧合約。雖然狗狗幣的技術比比特幣更快，但其通膨性質將阻止其像比特幣一樣稀缺。它缺乏對智能合約的支持也限制了它對開發商的吸引力。

Dunn agrees too. “While Dogecoin may appear to be a ‘safe bet’ for certain investors due to its strong community, celebrity backing, and enduring presence, it remains a speculative and high-risk asset in the crypto space,” he added.

鄧恩也同意。他補充說：「雖然狗狗幣因其強大的社區、名人支持和持久的存在而對某些投資者來說可能是一個『安全的賭注'，但它仍然是加密貨幣領域的投機性和高風險資產。

“It’s safer compared to highly volatile newer altcoins, but it is far from risk-free, especially in the unpredictable world of cryptocurrency. Prices can fluctuate wildly, driven by speculative trading, market sentiment, and external factors such as tweets from high-profile figures.”

「與高度波動的新型山寨幣相比，它更安全，但它遠非無風險，尤其是在不可預測的加密貨幣世界中。在投機交易、市場情緒和知名人物推文等外部因素的推動下，價格可能會大幅波動。

Key takeaways?

關鍵要點？

While Dunn and Deshell agreed that Dogecoin will likely continue to thrive on the back of meme culture and celebrity endorsements, but it may lack the technological advancements needed to push it into the next phase of technological development.

雖然鄧恩和德謝爾一致認為，狗狗幣可能會在迷因文化和名人代言的支持下繼續蓬勃發展，但它可能缺乏推動其進入下一階段技術發展所需的技術進步。

“Dogecoin will stay a volatile asset that benefits from rising markets and social media. If interest wanes, Dogecoin could risk being overshadowed by more innovative or fundamentally strong cryptocurrencies. Without meaningful upgrades

「狗狗幣將繼續是一種波動性較高的資產，受益於不斷上漲的市場和社群媒體。如果興趣減弱，狗狗幣可能會被更具創新性或基本面強勁的加密貨幣所掩蓋。沒有有意義的升級
