While the regulatory environment continues to get better and better in the crypto sector, many cryptocurrencies are way down for the year. Of course, that's on the back of a big rally at the end of 2024 built on President Donald Trump's election win in November and his promise to make the U.S. the crypto capital of the world.

尽管监管环境在加密货币领域越来越好，但今年许多加密货币却下降了。当然，这是在2024年底建立在唐纳德·特朗普（Donald Trump）总统在11月的选举胜利的基础上进行的一次大集会的背面，他的承诺将使美国成为世界的加密之都。

Still, as of June 2, the prices of the meme tokens Dogecoin (CRYPTO: DOGE) and Shiba Inu (CRYPTO: SHIB) have declined 39% and 38% this year, respectively. Some of this could be due to concerns over a higher-for-longer interest rate environment, the ongoing trade war, or U.S. fiscal concerns. But some may also take advantage of this sell-off to buy the dip. Which is the better meme cryptocurrency right now? Dogecoin or Shiba Inu?

尽管如此，截至6月2日，Meme Tokens Dogecoin（Crypto：Doge）和Shiba Inu（加密：SHIB）的价格分别下降了39％和38％。其中一些可能是由于对较高的利率环境，正在进行的贸易战或美国财政问题的担忧。但是有些人也可能利用这种抛售来购买蘸酱。现在哪个是更好的模因加密货币？ Dogecoin还是Shiba Inu？

Dogecoin: The original meme coin

Dogecoin：原始模因硬币

Dogecoin really pioneered the meme token movement. Billy Markus, a software engineer, and Jackson Palmer, a marketing professional, created Dogecoin in 2013 as a practical joke. They wanted people to have more fun with crypto, so they made a cryptocurrency based on an image of Shiba Inu canine. It didn't take long for Dogecoin to go viral, with celebrities like Mark Cuban and Elon Musk, the "The Dogefather," lending their support to the token.

Dogecoin确实开创了模因象征运动。软件工程师比利·马库斯（Billy Markus）和营销专家杰克逊·帕尔默（Jackson Palmer）在2013年创建了Dogecoin，这是一个实用的笑话。他们希望人们在加密货币上获得更多乐趣，因此他们根据Shiba Inu犬的形象制作了加密货币。 Dogecoin很快就传播开来，像Mark Cuban和“ Dogefather”这样的名人埃隆·马斯克（Elon Musk）向代币提供了支持。

Dogecoin's price peaked on the same day that Musk appeared on Saturday Night Live. The price of the token hit a high of $0.76 on April 9, 2023. However, it would turn into a sell-the-news event, as Dogecoin hasn't traded that high since.

Dogecoin的价格在Musk出现在Saturday Night Live的同一天达到顶峰。代币的价格在2023年4月9日达到0.76美元。但是，由于Dogecoin从那以后再也没有交易过如此高。

Cryptocurrencies are difficult to forecast as it is, because they don't generate cash flow or earnings. So a lot of investors look at what makes a specific cryptocurrency unique. What is its use case? And how could it revolutionize something in a way that increases the use of its corresponding tokens?

加密货币很难预测，因为它们不会产生现金流或收益。因此，许多投资者都在关注使特定加密货币与众不同的原因。它的用例是什么？它如何以增加其相应令牌使用的方式彻底改变某些东西？

This is where Dogecoin struggles to an extent, because there doesn't seem to be a great use case for it. Given its virality, Dogecoin has been used on many occasions as a way for people to tip content creators, but other than that, there's nothing that really sets it apart. Unlike Bitcoin, the world's largest cryptocurrency, there is no limit on the number of Doge tokens that can be created, so there's no real appeal from a supply and demand perspective.

这是Dogecoin在一定程度上挣扎的地方，因为似乎没有一个很好的用例。鉴于其病毒性，多霉素在许多场合都被用作人们吸引内容创建者的一种方式，但是除此之外，没有什么能真正将其与众不同。与世界上最大的加密货币比特币不同，可以创建的Doge代币数量没有限制，因此从供需的角度来看，没有真正的吸引力。

However, through everything, Dogecoin has remained one of the 10 largest cryptocurrencies in the world. Very few tokens can boast the amount of support it has from an online community, so it seems more likely at this point that Doge is here to stay.

但是，通过一切，Dogecoin仍然是世界上10个最大的加密货币之一。很少有代币可以拥有在线社区中获得的支持量，因此，在这一点上，Doge可以留在这里。

Shiba Inu: A play on Dogecoin with differences

Shiba Inu：在Dogecoin上的戏剧

If Dogecoin was a joke, then Shiba Ibu started as a joke on a joke. Seeing how Dogecoin took off, more people wanted to get in on the meme token fad. But Shiba Inu arrived seven years later in 2020 and is more or less a joke on Dogecoin as it was named after Dogecoin's mascot. While the token was created for similar reasons as Dogecoin, there are some distinct differences.

如果Dogecoin是个玩笑，那么Shiba Ibu开始开玩笑。看到多霉素如何起飞，越来越多的人想进入模因象征性的时尚。但是Shiba Inu七年后的2020年到达，或多或少是Dogecoin的开玩笑，因为它以Dogecoin的吉祥物命名。虽然令牌是出于与狗狗币相似的原因而创建的，但存在一些明显的差异。

While Dogecoin runs on its own network, Shiba Inu was built as an ERC-20 token, meaning it was built on Ethereum's blockchain. ERC-20 tokens are powered by smart contracts and all follow a similar protocol. All ERC-20 tokens must have a total supply and follow a common set of rules regarding how transfers and associated accounts work. Shiba Inu's total supply of 1 quadrillion tokens has now been reduced to about 589 trillion after one of Ethereum's co-founders burned most of the 50% of supply that had been sent to him in a digital wallet. So while supply is still massive, there is a finite amount.

尽管Dogecoin在自己的网络上运行，但Shiba Inu是作为ERC-20代币建造的，这意味着它是建立在以太坊的区块链上的。 ERC-20令牌由智能合约提供动力，并且都遵循类似的协议。所有ERC-20代币必须具有总供应量，并遵循有关转移和相关帐户工作方式的一套共同规则。什巴·伊努（Shiba Inu）的总供应总额为1四亿代币现在已减少到589万亿个，因为以太坊的共同创始人中的一位共同创始人烧毁了在数字钱包中发送给他的50％的供应中的大部分。因此，尽管供应仍然很大，但数量有限。

In 2023, Shiba Inu created Shibarium, a layer-2 blockchain built on top of Ethereum's blockchain to allow people to transact in a smoother, more affordable manner. Part of the reason for Shibarium was to help alleviate some of the congestion issues on Ethereum's network. Shibarium has also enabled decentralized applications and non-fungible tokens in Shiba Inu's ecosystem.

2023年，Shiba Inu创建了Shibarium，这是一种建立在以太坊区块链顶部的第2层区块链，使人们可以以更平稳，更实惠的方式进行交易。 Shibarium的部分原因是帮助减轻以太坊网络上的一些拥堵问题。 Shibarium还启用了Shiba Inu生态系统中的分散应用程序和不可杀死的令牌。

Better buy: Dogecoin or Shiba Inu?

更好的购买：狗狗或什巴inu？

To be clear, I wouldn't recommend buying either of these tokens. Neither offers a compelling use case or a strong technological advantage over other networks that can process thousands of transactions per second. Both are also likely to remain extremely volatile and unpredictable. But if I did have to pick one, it would likely be Shiba Inu because Shibarium offers more use cases for the network and better technology. There is also a finite supply of Shiba Inu and tokens regularly getting burned to reduce supply, even if the total supply is still quite large.

需要明确的是，我不建议您购买这些代币中的任何一个。与其他网络相比，两者都没有提供引人入胜的用例或强大的技术优势，该网络每秒都可以处理数千笔交易。两者也可能保持极度动荡和不可预测。但是，如果我确实必须选择一个，那可能是shiba inu，因为shibarium为网络和更好的技术提供了更多用例。即使总供应仍然很大，也有有限的什巴INU供应和代币经常被烧毁以减少供应。
