Elon Musk, Tesla billionaire and X owner, has been known to cause huge bitcoin price swings.

特斯拉亿万富翁和 X 所有者埃隆·马斯克 (Elon Musk) 因导致比特币价格大幅波动而闻名。

"New X code has just shipped that reveals X Payments will launch without approval from all 50 states," X influencer Alex Finn posted to the platform. "Meaning X Payments could launch today."

X 影响者 Alex Finn 在该平台上发帖称：“新的 X 代码刚刚发布，表明 X Payments 将在未经所有 50 个州批准的情况下启动。” “这意味着 X Payments 可能会在今天推出。”

Since Musk bought Twitter and rebranded it X he has been acquiring money transmitter licences in states across the country as part of a grand plan to grow X into an "everything app" like China's WeChat.

自从马斯克收购 Twitter 并将其重新命名为 X 以来，他一直在全国各州获得货币传输许可证，作为将 X 发展成为像中国微信这样的“万能应用程序”的宏伟计划的一部分。

"It seems like X plans to launch X Money in the U.S. before getting approval in all 50 states," MacRumors contributing researcher Aaron Perris posted to the platform alongside a screenshot of the code, which hasn't been verified by the company itself.

MacRumors 特约研究员 Aaron Perris 在该平台上发布了一张代码截图，并表示：“X 计划在获得所有 50 个州的批准之前，先在美国推出 X Money。”该代码截图尚未得到公司本身的验证。

Earlier this week, X chief executive Linda Yaccarino confirmed payments will be coming to the social media platform in 2025 in the form of X Money along with a raft of other features, telling people to "buckle up."

本周早些时候，X 首席执行官琳达·亚卡里诺 (Linda Yaccarino) 证实，该社交媒体平台将于 2025 年以 X Money 的形式提供支付服务以及一系列其他功能，并告诉人们“系好安全带”。

X Money's confirmation has sparked wild speculation that the platform could use or support bitcoin, crypto or dollar-pegged stablecoins that use crypto technology to speed up and reduce the cost of transactions, with Musk's rocket company SpaceX recently being linked to Tether's dominant USDT stablecoin.

X Money 的确认引发了人们的疯狂猜测，认为该平台可能会使用或支持比特币、加密货币或与美元挂钩的稳定币，这些稳定币利用加密技术来加速和降低交易成本，马斯克的火箭公司 SpaceX 最近与 Tether 占主导地位的 USDT 稳定币挂钩。

"X payments in one way or another will support cryptocurrency," Finn predicted in an X broadcast. "Crypto will probably be a good amount of rails for [X] payments."

Finn 在 X 广播中预测：“X 支付将以某种方式支持加密货币。” “加密货币可能会成为 [X] 支付的重要手段。”

The bitcoin price has surged to around $100,000 per bitcoin, helped by Wall Street adoption, Donald ... [+] Trump's support and Tesla billionaire Elon Musk's warnings of U.S. dollar collapse.

在华尔街的采用、唐纳德·特朗普的支持以及特斯拉亿万富翁埃隆·马斯克对美元崩溃的警告的帮助下，比特币价格已飙升至每比特币 100,000 美元左右。

If bitcoin and crypto do come to X, some have predicted it could cause a bitcoin price boom similar to PayPal's support for bitcoin and crypto that helped kick off the 2021 bitcoin price bull run.

如果比特币和加密货币确实出现在 X 领域，一些人预测它可能会导致比特币价格上涨，类似于 PayPal 对比特币和加密货币的支持，从而帮助拉开了 2021 年比特币价格牛市的序幕。

While Musk has refrained from commenting on bitcoin or crypto directly in recent years, his support of Trump in the run up to the November U.S. presidential election helped drive the bitcoin price higher as traders bet on Trump leading a pro-bitcoin and crypto administration.

尽管马斯克近年来一直避免直接评论比特币或加密货币，但他在 11 月美国总统大选前对特朗普的支持帮助推高了比特币价格，因为交易员押注特朗普将领导一个支持比特币和加密货币的政府。

Musk also campaigned against excessive U.S. spending, resulting in the creation of the Doge Department Of Government Efficiency, which Musk has said he believes could strip $2 trillion from U.S. spending.

马斯克还发起反对美国过度支出的运动，并成立了总督政府效率部，马斯克表示，他认为该部门可能会削减美国 2 万亿美元的支出。

The Doge department is a nod to the shiba inu doge meme that's also linked to the dogecoin cryptocurrency, named by Elon Musk as his "favorite" cryptocurrency and accepted as payment by his Tesla car company—though Tesla continues to hold around 10,000 bitcoin, now worth around $1 billion, on its balance sheet.

Doge 部门是对 shiba inu doge meme 的致敬，它也与狗狗币加密货币相关，埃隆·马斯克将狗狗币称为他“最喜欢的”加密货币，并被他的特斯拉汽车公司接受为付​​款方式——尽管特斯拉现在仍然持有约 10,000 个比特币其资产负债表上的价值约为10亿美元。
