为什么Coinbase在第四季度出售了12,652 ETH（约2500万美元）

Coinbase是最大的加密货币交易所之一，在2024年第四季度出售了12,652 ETH（以当前价格为2500万美元）

Coinbase (NASDAQ:COIN) sold 12,652 ETH (about $25 million at current prices) in the fourth quarter of 2024, when the company’s valuation was nearly double its current level, according to a new report by Global Head of Digital Asset Research at Standard Chartered Bank (NYSE:SCB) Geoffrey Kendrick.

根据《标准特许银行》（NYSE：SCB）Geoffrey Kendrick的全球数字资产研究负责人Geoffrey Kendrick，Coinbase（NASDAQ：COIN）在2024年第四季度售出了12,652 ETH（以目前的价格出售约2500万美元），当时该公司的估值几乎是当前水平的两倍。

As we previously reported, Coinbase (NASDAQ:COIN) disclosed selling some of its ether to fund operations, without specifying the amounts involved, and denied allegations that it regularly engages in trading activities.

正如我们先前报道的那样，Coinbase（NASDAQ：COIN）透露出售其某些以太币以资助运营，而未指定所涉及的金额，并否认指控其定期从事交易活动。

“Base earns ETH from sequencer fees, and the ETH we earn is mainly held for long-term investment or used for operational expenses, including tax liabilities and reinvestment in growth through things like salaries, grants, acquisitions, and funding for public goods,” a Coinbase spokesperson said.

一位COINBASE发言人说：“基础从测序者费用中赚取ETH，而我们所赚取的ETH主要用于长期投资或用于运营费用，包括税收负债和通过薪金，赠款，收购和公共物品的资金进行增长的再投资。”

According to Kendrick’s calculations, Coinbase’s net ETH sales over the last three quarters equal 1,558 units, suggesting a strategy of selling in portions rather than accumulating over the long term. However, Coinbase stated that its ETH holdings for investment purposes had increased by 20% over the entire year 2024.

根据肯德里克（Kendrick）的计算，Coinbase在过去三个季度的净销售额等于1,558辆，这表明一部分销售的策略而不是长期积累。但是，Coinbase表示，其用于投资目的的ETH持有量在2024年全年增长了20％。

While Coinbase claims these sales were mainly to finance its activities, it begs the question of what its crypto asset management strategy is. Binance was subject to similar accusations earlier this year, in January and February.

尽管Coinbase声称这些销售主要是为了为其活动提供资金，但它引出了一个问题，即其加密资产管理策略是什么。今年1月和2月，Binance受到类似的指控。
