Billionaire CEO Elon Musk said on Saturday the price of bitcoin and ethereum seemed high, at a time when the cryptocurrencies have hit record highs, with bitcoin crossing the $1 trillion market-capitalization threshold.

토요일 비트코인이 시가총액 1조 달러 문턱을 넘어서는 등 암호화폐들이 사상 최고치를 기록하는 상황에서 억만장자 CEO인 일론 머스크는 비트코인과 이더리움의 가격이 높아 보인다고 언급했다.


The chief executive of Tesla Inc, whose recent tweets have fueled the digital-currency rally, made the remark on Twitter while replying to a user who said that gold was better than both bitcoin and conventional cash.

디지털 화폐 상승 랠리를 부추긴 테슬라의 CEO인 그는 "금이 비트코인과 종래의 현금보다 낫다"는 한 트위터 이용자에게 답하며 이처럼 말했다.


Musk, who earlier in the week remarked that he found the prospect of holding bitcoin adventurous for an SP 500 company, said in a tweet: "Money is just data that allows us to avoid the inconvenience of barter ..."

"돈은 물물교환의 불편함을 피할 수 있는 데이터일 뿐"이라고 트윗을 올린 머스크는 이번주초 "스탠더드 앤드 푸어스(S&P) 500 상장 기업인 테슬라가 가상화폐를 소유하는 것은 충분히 모험적"이라며 옹호하기도 했다.


"That said, BTC ETH do seem high lol," he added.

"그렇긴 해도 비트코인과 이더리움이 비싼 것 같긴 하다(웃음)"라고 그는 덧붙였다.


Bitcoin, the world's most popular cryptocurrency, hit a fresh high in Asian trading on Saturday, extending a two-month rally a day after the digital currency's market capitalization exceeded $1 trillion.

세계에서 가장 인기 있는 암호화폐인 비트코인은 시가총액이 1조 달러를 넘어선 지 하루 만에 이 토요일 아시아 거래에서 사상 최고치를 경신하며 두달간의 상승랠리를 이어갔다.


Ethereum or ether is the second-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization and daily volume.

이더리움(또는 이더)은 시가총액과 일일 거래량이 두 번째로 큰 암호화폐다.


Musk, an ardent proponent of digital currencies, has defended Tesla's recent purchase of $1.5 billion of bitcoin, which has ignited mainstream interest in the digital currency. (Reuters)

디지털화폐의 열렬한 지지자인 머스크는 최근 테슬라가 15억 달러의 비트코인을 매입한 것을 옹호하면서 디지털 화폐에 대한 대중의 관심에 불을 지폈다.
