Klarna首席执行官Sebastian Siemiatkowski计划在报道的美国IPO之前“拥抱加密”

根据其首席执行官Sebastian Siemiatkowski的一篇文章，据报道，据报道，瑞典付款巨头Klarna Bank AB计划今年美国首次公开募股，计划“拥抱加密”。

Swedish payments giant Klarna Bank AB, which is reportedly planning a US initial public offering (IPO) this year, is also planning to “embrace crypto,” according to a Feb. 8 post from its CEO Sebastian Siemiatkowski.

根据其首席执行官Sebastian Siemiatkowski的职位，据报道，据报道，瑞典付款巨头Klarna Bank AB计划今年美国首次公开募股（IPO），也计划“拥抱加密”。

Siemiatkowski said he had some ideas but asked his followers for their input, prompting responses from some industry executives. The firm processes around $100 billion in trading volume annually.

Siemiatkowski说他有一些想法，但请他的追随者提供意见，促使一些行业高管的回应。该公司每年处理约1000亿美元的交易量。

Circle CEO Jamie Allaire pitched the firm’s USD Coin (USDC) stablecoin, while others suggested Klarna could integrate crypto payments, non-fungible tokens (NFTs) or a Klarna token.

Circle首席执行官Jamie Allaire宣传了该公司的USD硬币（USDC）Stablecoin，而其他人则建议Klarna可以整合加密货币付款，不可杀菌令牌（NFTS）或Klarna代币。

Siemiatkowski acknowledged that his firm would be playing catch up on two of its biggest competitors, PayPal and Revolut, which already offer a wide selection of cryptocurrency services.

Siemiatkowski承认，他的公司将赶上其两个最大的竞争对手Paypal和Revolut，这些竞争对手已经提供了多种加密货币服务。

“Klarna will be late to the party. But better late than never,” he said.

“克拉纳将迟到聚会。但是迟到总比没有好。”他说。

PayPal, for example, already offers a PayPal USD (PUSDC) stablecoin, while Revolut users can trade crypto, use it to book flights and hotels, and even pay friends and family.

例如，PayPal已经提供了PayPal USD（PUSDC）Stablecoin，而Revolut用户可以交易加密货币，使用它来预订航班和酒店，甚至付费朋友和家人。

It comes as Klarna is preparing for an IPO in the US, the Financial Times reported on Feb. 8. The payments giant was last valued at $45.6 billion in June 2022 after a funding round that saw it slash its valuation by 85%.

这是因为克拉纳（Klarna）在美国金融时报（Financial Times）于2月8日报道说，这是20022年6月的付款巨头在2022年6月的456亿美元估值，此前一场融资回合将其估值削减了85％。

Klarna is also reportedly planning to cut 10% of its workforce, or around 450 employees, in the coming weeks.

据报道，克拉纳还计划在未来几周内削减其劳动力的10％或约450名员工。

Klarna declined to comment on the IPO or crypto plans when contacted by Blockworks.

After teasing Klarna’s crypto plans on Feb. 8, Siemiatkowski went on to share a three-minute AI-generated song called “Crypto Boy” that mentioned everything from Bitcoin (BTC), Binance and Coinbase to staking, NFTs and mining.

在2月8日取笑Klarna的加密计划之后，Siemiatkowski继续分享了一首三分钟的AI生成的歌曲，名为“ Crypto Boy”，提到了比特币（BTC），Binance和Coinbase，再到Coinbase到Staking，NFTS和NFTS和采矿。

However, Siemiatkowski also took aim at Bitcoin again, describing it as a “decentralized Ponzi scheme” and adding that “everyone who buys it hopes for a greater fool.”

但是，Siemiatkowski也再次瞄准了比特币，将其描述为“分散的庞氏骗局”，并补充说：“每个购买它的人都希望有一个更大的傻瓜。”

“It’s funny how everyone in crypto seems to hate PayPal and Klarna for offering crypto. Yet they want Klarna and H&M to offer Klarna crypto,” he added.

“有趣的是，加密货币的每个人似乎都讨厌Paypal和Klarna提供加密货币。然而，他们希望克拉纳（Klarna）和H＆M提供克拉纳（Klarna）的加密货币。”他补充说。
