Elon Musk clarified today that the US government has no plans to use Dogecoin, addressing speculation that links the popular crypto asset—which he has long endorsed—to the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) project he is currently leading.

埃隆·馬斯克（Elon Musk）今天澄清說，美國政府沒有計劃使用狗狗幣的計劃，解決了將受歡迎的加密資產（他早已認可的）與他目前領導的政府效率部（DOGE）項目聯繫起來的猜測。

“There are no plans for the government to use Dogecoin or anything, as far as I know,” Musk said, speaking at an America PAC town hall in Green Bay, Wisconsin, on Sunday.

馬斯克在周日在威斯康星州格林貝的美國Pac市政廳說：“據我所知，政府沒有計劃使用多黴素或其他任何計劃。”

Musk revealed he initially planned to name the initiative the “Government Efficiency Commission” but changed it to “Department of Government Efficiency” following public input.

馬斯克透露，他最初計劃將該計劃命名為“政府效率委員會”，但在公開投入後將其更改為“政府效率”。

“I was going to call it the Government Efficiency Commission, but that’s a super boring name,” he said.

他說：“我將其稱為政府效率委員會，但這是一個超級無聊的名字。”

The project aims to improve government operational efficiency by 15%, according to Musk. “Really, it’s just we’re just literally trying to make the government 15% more efficient,” he stated.

根據馬斯克的說法，該項目旨在提高政府運營效率15％。他說：“確實，這只是我們只是在努力使政府提高15％的效率。”

The government efficiency initiative was established by President Trump to cut federal spending and streamline operations. While Musk’s involvement has sparked speculation about crypto-related initiatives, DOGE’s primary focus is on government efficiency, not crypto adoption.

特朗普總統制定了政府效率倡議，以減少聯邦支出和簡化行動。儘管馬斯克的參與引發了人們對加密相關計劃的猜測，但多奇的主要重點是政府效率，而不是採用加密貨幣。

The confusion arises from the playful naming of the department, which coincides with Musk’s well-known association with Dogecoin as a meme crypto.

這種困惑源於該部門的頑皮命名，這與馬斯克與Dogecoin作為模因加密貨幣的眾所周知的聯繫相吻合。

Tesla’s CEO has consistently expressed enthusiasm for Dogecoin through his tweets and public statements. He previously defended Dogecoin’s inflationary model, calling it “a feature” that supports its usability for everyday transactions.

特斯拉的首席執行官一直通過他的推文和公開聲明表達了對Dogecoin的熱情。他之前捍衛了Dogecoin的通貨膨脹模型，稱其為“一項功能”，該功能支持其對日常交易的可用性。

Musk to step down after leading $1 trillion government spending cut

在領導1萬億美元的政府支出削減後，馬斯克下台

Musk said in a recent interview with Fox News that he will step down from his role in the Trump administration after achieving a $1 trillion reduction in the US federal deficit.

馬斯克在最近接受福克斯新聞（Fox News）採訪時說，他將在美國聯邦赤字減少1萬億美元後，辭去特朗普政府的角色。

The tech mogul is confident that most of the work required for this cost-cutting goal could be completed within 130 days. He estimated that his tenure could end at the end of May.

科技大亨有信心，此削減成本目標所需的大部分工作可以在130天內完成。他估計他的任期可能會在5月底結束。
