Elon Musk, the outspoken billionaire and CEO of X, said on Wednesday that Dogecoin (CRYPTO: DOGE) will not be used by a new federal department he is heading.

直言不讳的亿万富翁兼首席执行官埃隆·马斯克（Elon Musk）周三表示，狗狗（Crypto：Doge）将不会由他前进的新联邦部门使用。

What Happened: During a town hall meeting with American PAC on March 30, Musk said that there are no plans for the government to use Dogecoin or anything as far as he knows.

发生了什么：在3月30日与美国PAC的一次市政厅会议上，马斯克说，据他所知，政府没有计划使用Dogecoin或其他任何计划。

The tech billionaire said he was setting up the Department of Government Efficiency (D.O.G.E) after receiving feedback from people on how to improve the government.

这位科技亿万富翁表示，他正在收到人们如何改善政府的反馈后，建立了政府效率部（DOGE）。

“People on the internet have been very helpful in thinking of names for the new commission. They suggested that instead of the Government Efficiency Commission, it should be called D.O.G.E, which stands for Department of Government Efficiency,” Musk explained.

Musk解释说：“互联网上的人们在考虑新委员会的名称方面非常有帮助。他们建议，与政府效率委员会相比，它应该被称为Doge，这代表政府效率。” Musk解释说。

He added that the names are similar but they’re doing two very different things. We’re just literally trying to make the government 15% more efficient.”

他补充说，这些名字是相似的，但是他们做了两种截然不同的事情。我们只是试图使政府提高15％的效率。”

Musk is a known fan of Dogecoin and the meme-coin's logo was briefly displayed on the department’s official website after President Donald Trump’s inauguration in January.

马斯克（Musk）是Dogecoin的著名粉丝，在一月份唐纳德·特朗普（Donald Trump）的就职典礼后，在该部门的官方网站上简要显示了模因徽标。

Dogecoin Price Action: At press time, DOGE is trading at $0.16. The coin is down 5.83% over 24 hours and trades at a 24h volume of $1.16 billion. Its total market cap stands at $24.33 billion.

According to crypto analyst Ali Martinez, DOGE continues to hold above the lower boundary of its current trading channel. A surge in demand at this level could trigger an upward move, he added.

根据加密分析师阿里·马丁内斯（Ali Martinez）的说法，Doge继续保持其当前交易渠道的下边界。他补充说，在这个级别的需求激增可能会引发向上的行动。
