埃隆·马斯克和特斯拉击败了指控他们欺骗狗狗币投资者的诉讼

集体诉讼称，马斯克在 Twitter（现在的 X）上发布了声明，“狗狗币是人民的加密货币，也是地球未来的货币”

A federal judge in Manhattan has dismissed a lawsuit that accused Elon Musk and Tesla of defrauding investors by pumping up and then dumping the Dogecoin cryptocurrency, causing investor losses.

曼哈顿的一名联邦法官驳回了一项诉讼，该诉讼指控埃隆·马斯克和特斯拉通过增加然后抛售狗狗币加密货币来欺骗投资者，造成投资者损失。

The plaintiffs had sought $258 billion in damages, alleging that Musk drove up Dogecoin’s price by more than 36,000% with his statements and then let it crash.

原告要求赔偿 2580 亿美元，声称马斯克的言论将狗狗币的价格推高了 36,000% 以上，然后又让它崩盘。

The class-action lawsuit pointed to several statements Musk made, including posting on Twitter, now X, that Dogecoin is the people’s crypto and the future currency of Earth, that Dogecoin might become the standard for the global financial system and the currency of the internet, and that Musk had agreed to become Dogecoin’s CEO, among others.

集体诉讼指向马斯克发表的几项声明，包括在 Twitter（现在的 X）上发布的内容，即狗狗币是人民的加密货币和地球未来的货币，狗狗币可能成为全球金融体系和互联网货币的标准，马斯克已同意担任狗狗币的首席执行官等。

However, US District Judge Alvin Hellerstein permanently dismissed the case on Thursday night, writing in his decision that these statements are aspirational and puffery, not factual and susceptible to being falsified.

然而，美国地区法官阿尔文·海勒斯坦(Alvin Hellerstein)于周四晚永久驳回了此案，并在判决中写道，这些陈述是有抱负的、夸大的，不符合事实，而且容易被伪造。

“No reasonable investor could rely upon them.”

“任何理性的投资者都不能依赖它们。”

The judge also noted that it is not possible to understand the allegations that form the basis of Plaintiffs’ conclusion of market manipulation.

法官还指出，无法理解构成原告市场操纵结论基础的指控。

The lawsuit was filed in June 2022, and the plaintiffs included people who said they lost money on Dogecoin after investing between 2021 and 2022.

该诉讼于 2022 年 6 月提起，原告包括一些表示自己在 2021 年至 2022 年间投资狗狗币后遭受损失的人。

The plaintiffs had sought to recoup their losses and have Musk and Tesla pay triple damages, which would have amounted to $754 billion.

原告寻求挽回损失，并要求马斯克和特斯拉支付三倍的赔偿金，总计 7540 亿美元。

The plaintiffs also sought to have Musk and Tesla banned from promoting Dogecoin and to have a fund established to compensate defrauded investors.

原告还寻求禁止马斯克和特斯拉推广狗狗币，并设立一只基金来赔偿被骗的投资者。

Dogecoin soared more than 70% when Musk finalised his acquisition of Twitter, now X, in October 2022.

当马斯克于 2022 年 10 月完成对 Twitter（现在的 X）的收购时，狗狗币飙升了 70% 以上。

More recently, changing the X logo to a picture of Kabosu, the shiba dog in the Dogecoin logo, drove up the cryptocurrency’s price by more than 30% in April 2023.

最近，将 X 徽标更改为狗狗币徽标中的柴犬 Kabosu 的图片，导致该加密货币的价格在 2023 年 4 月上涨了 30% 以上。

However, it seems that times may be changing.

然而，时代似乎正在发生变化。

Last week, when Musk promoted Dogecoin with a joking reference on X to heading a “Department of Government Efficiency,” or D.O.G.E for short, the coin’s price rose only about 5%.

上周，当马斯克在宣传狗狗币时，开玩笑地提到 X 是“政府效率部”（简称 DOGE）时，该币的价格仅上涨了约 5%。

Dogecoin was up 0.06% today at $0.1012.

狗狗币今天上涨 0.06%，至 0.1012 美元。
