提交IPO之前，Circle探索了出售給Coinbase或Ripple

位於紐約的第二大穩定幣的發行人參加了非正式會談，以尋求至少50億美元的潛在銷售

Stablecoin issuer Circle, which filed for an initial public offering (IPO) last month, has also explored the alternative of a sale to crypto exchange Coinbase (COIN) or payments company Ripple, according to a Monday report by Fortune.

據《財富》（Fortune）的周一報告，上個月為首次公開募股（IPO）申請的Stablecoin發行人圈子還探索了向Crypto Exchange Coinbase（Coin）或Payments Company Ripple出售的選擇。

The New York-based issuer of USDC, the second-largest stablecoin, took part in informal talks over a potential sale from which it was seeking at least $5 billion, Fortune reported, citing people who asked not to be identified.

據《財富》報導，總部位於紐約USDC的發行人是第二大Stablecoin，他就可能從中尋求至少50億美元的潛在銷售進行了非正式會談。

This figure would be line with the company's valuation by investment banks JPMorgan and Citi, which Circle had hired to help with the IPO.

這個數字將與投資銀行JPMorgan和Citi的公司估值一致，Circle曾僱用了為IPO提供幫助。

Coinbase holds a minority share in Circle, and the two companies share revenue from USDC's reserve interest income. Ripple recently debuted its own stablecoin, RLUSD. An offer by Ripple to buy Circle was rejected, Bloomberg reported last month.

Coinbase在圈子中擁有少數股份，兩家公司從USDC的儲備金收入中享有收入。 Ripple最近首次亮相了自己的Stablecoin Rlusd。彭博（Bloomberg）上個月報導說，Ripple要購買圈子的報價被拒絕。

Circle said in an emailed statement that it "is not for sale," and remains committed to going public, Fortune said. The company aborted a previous attempt at going public via a special purpose acquisition company (SPAC) merger in 2021.

Fortune說，Circle在一封電子郵件聲明中說，它“不出售”，並且仍致力於公開公開。該公司在2021年通過特殊目的收購公司（SPAC）合併中止了以前的嘗試。
