在短暂展示了Dogecoin的Shiba Inu Mascot之后，政府效率部门退缩了

该部门的官方网站在2025年2月在该部门的官方网站短暂展示了Dogecoin的Shiba INU吉祥物之后开始，这引起了人们的猜测可能涉及加密货币。

Elon Musk has clarified that his new government department, despite its playful name, will not be using Dogecoin.

埃隆·马斯克（Elon Musk）澄清说，尽管他的新政府部门扮演了顽皮的名字，但仍不会使用狗狗币。

The confusion began after the department’s official website briefly displayed Dogecoin’s Shiba Inu mascot in February 2025, which caused speculation that the cryptocurrency might be involved. The value of Dogecoin surged by 14% after the display, but Musk quickly distanced the government department from the crypto token.

该部门的官方网站在2025年2月在该部门的官方网站短暂展示了Dogecoin的Shiba INU吉祥物之后开始，这引起了人们的猜测可能涉及加密货币。展示后，多霉素的价值飙升了14％，但马斯克迅速将政府部门与加密代币距离。

“We’re just literally trying to make the government 15% more efficient, which the internet is furious about,” Musk said in a statement. “They’re saying we should be making it 50% smaller, but we’re starting small.” He added that Dogecoin was not part of the initiative and that people were ‘reading too much into it.’

马斯克在一份声明中说：“我们只是在努力使政府提高效率15％，这是互联网对此感到愤怒的效率。” “他们是说我们应该使其少50％，但我们开始小。”他补充说，狗狗币不是该计划的一部分，人们“读太多了”。

The Trump administration’s DOGE, launched in late 2024, has been tasked with restructuring government agencies and reducing costs. It has been particularly focused on cutting spending and eliminating unnecessary regulatory overlap. Some of the agencies affected include the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB).

特朗普政府于2024年末成立的总督，负责重组政府机构并降低成本。它特别专注于削减支出并消除不必要的监管重叠。受影响的一些机构包括美国国际发展机构（USAID）和消费者金融保护局（CFPB）。

The department’s efforts to reduce the size and cost of the federal government have been controversial, with several lawsuits filed in response to the mass layoffs and budget cuts, which also impacted programs addressing climate change and scientific research.

该部门降低联邦政府的规模和成本的努力引起了争议，以应对大规模裁员和削减预算的诉讼，这也影响了针对气候变化和科学研究的计划。

Musk explained that the name of the department came from suggestions on the internet. Originally planning to call it the Government Efficiency Commission, he opted for the DOGE name after public input.

马斯克解释说，该部门的名称来自互联网上的建议。他最初计划称其为政府效率委员会，他在公开投入后选择了门槛名。

“The internet said it needs to be the Department of Government Efficiency, not a commission. So we're making it a department. And people said that's too boring, it needs to be called DOGE. So we're calling it DOGE. Because we can,” Musk said, adding that the playful name had led to further speculation that Dogecoin might play a role in the department, which he fully denied.

“互联网表示需要是政府效率部，而不是佣金。因此，我们将其作为部门。人们说这太无聊了，需要称呼Doge。因此，我们称其为Doge。因为我们可以这样称呼。” Musk说，他补充说，嬉戏的名字已经进一步猜测Dogecoin可能在该部门中发挥作用，这是他充分发挥作用的。

"Now there's rumors that we'll be accepting Dogecoin for taxes or something like that, which is completely false. It's just a small good faith effort to make government more efficient and less costly, and leave the unserious matters to the people."

“现在有传言说我们将接受Dogecoin的税款或类似的东西，这完全是错误的。这只是一项小小的诚意努力，使政府更有效，更加昂贵，并将毫不留情的事情留给人民。”

Despite Musk’s statements, Dogecoin's value fell by 3.2% in the 24 hours after the clarification, dropping to $0.16. This came after the earlier surge when the Shiba Inu mascot was briefly shown on the DOGE website.

尽管穆斯克的陈述，Dogecoin的价值在澄清后的24小时内下降了3.2％，下降到0.16美元。这是在较早的激增之后，当时在Doge网站上简要介绍了Shiba INU吉祥物。

While Musk’s role in the department remains unclear, the White House has described him as a senior advisor without policymaking power. However, President Trump has repeatedly referred to Musk as the department's leader. Musk has also confirmed that he is not receiving compensation for his involvement in the project. The department’s larger goal is to reduce the federal government’s size and make it more cost-effective, a mission that has become a central part of Trump’s administration.

尽管马斯克在该部门的角色尚不清楚，但白宫将他描述为没有决策权的高级顾问。但是，特朗普总统一再将马斯克称为该部门的领导人。马斯克还确认，他没有因参与该项目而获得赔偿。该部门的更大目标是降低联邦政府的规模并使其更具成本效益，这一任务已成为特朗普政府的核心部分。
