據報導，Coinbase Global是美國最大的加密貨幣交易所，據報導正在“高級談判”中獲得deribit

Coinbase Global (NASDAQ:COIN), the largest cryptocurrency exchange in the United States, is reportedly in “advanced negotiations” to acquire Deribit, a startup specialized in derivatives and based in the Netherlands.

據報導，美國最大的加密貨幣交換是Coinbase Global（NASDAQ：COIN），據報導是在“高級談判”中以獲得Deribit的“高級談判”，該公司是一家專門從事衍生品，位於荷蘭的初創公司。

If finalized, this deal could be one of the largest acquisitions in the industry so far, with estimates placing Deribit’s valuation at around $4 billion to $5 billion.

如果最終確定，這筆交易可能是迄今為止該行業中最大的收購之一，估計將Deribit的估值處於約40億美元至50億美元。

What Happened

發生了什麼

Originally founded about a decade ago, Deribit has become a hub for trading cryptocurrency derivatives, specifically options and futures contracts. Options grant traders the right to buy or sell a virtual asset at a set price by a specific date, while futures contracts oblige parties to perform these actions at a future date.

Deribit最初成立於大約十年前，已成為交易加密貨幣衍生品，特別是期貨合約的樞紐。期權授予交易者有權按特定日期以設定的價格購買或出售虛擬資產，而期貨則簽訂了義務雙方在將來的日期執行這些訴訟。

Notably, Deribit handles more Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) options transactions than any other exchange, and its trading volume in 2024 reached approximately $1.2 trillion, nearly double the previous year.

值得注意的是，Deribit處理比其他任何交易所的比特幣（BTC）和以太坊（ETH）期權交易，其2024年的交易量達到約1.2萬億美元，幾乎是上一年的兩倍。

In contrast, Coinbase, a publicly traded company, offers a broader range of services, allowing users to buy and sell several hundred thousand digital assets through its exchange. The company also provides a digital wallet for asset management and a debit card that rewards users with cryptocurrency. For institutional clients, Coinbase operates a prime brokerage service to facilitate complex trades and offers resources like cryptocurrency loans.

相比之下，公開交易的公司Coinbase提供了更廣泛的服務，使用戶可以通過其交易所買賣數十萬個數字資產。該公司還提供了用於資產管理的數字錢包和一張借記卡，可獎勵用戶使用加密貨幣。對於機構客戶，Coinbase運營著主要的經紀服務，以促進複雜的交易，並提供加密貨幣貸款之類的資源。

Acquiring Deribit would significantly bolster Coinbase’s capabilities in the derivatives market, especially through its Bermuda-based platform that allows international users to trade crypto derivatives.

獲取deribit將大大支持Coinbase在衍生品市場中的功能，尤其是通過其基於百慕大的平台，該平台使國際用戶能夠交易加密衍生品。

This move aligns with Coinbase’s ongoing strategy to expand its product offerings and enhance its competitive position in the rapidly evolving crypto landscape, as reported by Bloomberg.

如彭博社報導，這一舉動與Coinbase的持續策略相吻合，該戰略旨在擴大其產品產品並提高其在快速發展的加密貨幣景觀中的競爭地位。

What’s More

還有

The acquisition discussions have reportedly been disclosed to regulators in Dubai, where Deribit operates with a business license, although sources close to the matter caution that the deal may not be completed.

據報導，收購討論已向迪拜的監管機構披露，迪拜的監管機構在那裡持有商務許可，儘管接近此事的消息來源警告說，該交易可能無法完成。

Earlier this year, Coinbase announced the acquisition of Spindl, a startup focused on blockchain-based advertising, and brought on the team behind Utopia Labs, known for developing services for cryptocurrency payment processing.

今年早些時候，Coinbase宣布收購Spindl，這是一家專注於基於區塊鏈廣告的初創公司，並將烏托邦實驗室背後的團隊帶入了以開發加密貨幣支付處理服務而聞名的團隊。

This potential acquisition follows the announcement of another major competitor in the crypto exchange space, Kraken, to acquire NinjaTrader LLC, a futures exchange valued at $1.5 billion.

這一潛在的收購是在加密交易所領域的另一位主要競爭對手Kraken宣布收購Ninjatrader LLC（期貨交易所，價值15億美元的期貨交易所）之後。

This development highlights the growing trend among cryptocurrency exchanges to consolidate and expand their service offerings in response to intensified competition and the positive changes observed in the US regulatory landscape, particularly with President Donald Trump’s second term in the White House.

這一發展凸顯了加密貨幣交流之間的增長趨勢，以鞏固和擴大其服務產品，以應對加強競爭以及在美國監管環境中觀察到的積極變化，尤其是唐納德·特朗普總統在白宮的第二任期。
