Coinbase is in advanced talks to acquire crypto derivatives exchange Deribit for about $2.9 billion, becoming the biggest takeover in the U.S. firm’s history, the Wall Street Journal reported on Wednesday.

據《華爾街日報》報導，Coinbase正在高級會談中以大約29億美元的價格收購加密衍生品交易所deribit，成為美國公司歷史上最大的接管。

The report adds the deal will be finalized with a mix of cash and Coinbase stock. The two firms are in the final stages of negotiations after months of discussions.

該報告補充說，這筆交易將通過現金和共同股票的混合結合。經過幾個月的討論，這兩家公司處於談判的最後階段。

The acquisition will be a major coup for Coinbase as it expands its footprint in the lucrative derivatives market, which forms the bulk of daily digital asset trading volume.

收購將是Coinbase的主要政變，因為它擴大了在有利可圖的衍生品市場中的足跡，這構成了每日數字資產交易量的大部分。

Deribit, known for its strong presence in crypto options and futures, is a prime target for Coinbase’s global expansion plans.

Deribit以其在加密選擇和未來方面的強大影響而聞名，是Coinbase全球擴張計劃的主要目標。

Deribit’s integration into Coinbase’s ecosystem will be a seamless one, given its full license from Dubai’s Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority (VARA).

鑑於迪拜的虛擬資產監管機構（VARA）的全部許可，Deribit在Coinbase的生態系統中的集成將是無縫的。

The exchange, which relocated from Panama in 4Q 2024, is authorized to provide crypto derivatives trading services to institutional and sophisticated investors.

該交易所於2024年第4季度從巴拿馬搬遷，被授權向機構和復雜的投資者提供加密衍生品交易服務。

However, transferring the license from Deribit to Coinbase will require regulatory approval, which could delay the finalization of the deal.

但是，將許可證從deribit轉移到Coinbase將需要監管批准，這可能會延遲交易的最終確定。

Coinbase has been making strides in expanding its derivatives footprint.

Coinbase在擴大其衍生品足跡方面一直在大步進行。

Its acquisition of FairX earlier this year facilitated the launch of CFTC-regulated futures products in the U.S. Additionally, Coinbase created its own International Exchange to offer perpetual futures trading outside of the American market.

Coinbase於今年早些時候收購FAIRX促進了CFTC調節的期貨產品的推出，Coinbase還創建了自己的國際交易所，以在美國市場以外提供永久的期貨交易。

Despite these efforts, Coinbase’s derivatives volume still lags behind offshore competitors, which is where Deribit comes in.

儘管做出了這些努力，Coinbase的衍生工具仍然落後於海上競爭對手，這是Deribit進來的地方。

The reported deal comes at a time of increasing optimism around U.S. crypto regulation.

報告的交易是在美國加密貨幣法規越來越樂觀的時候。

Coinbase’s move follows a March report by Bloomberg which said the U.S. exchange giant is open to a takeover if the price is right.

Coinbase的舉動是在彭博社（Bloomberg）的三月報告之後的，該報告稱，如果價格合適，美國交流巨頭將接受接管。

Also, industry peer Kraken is buying futures broker NinjaTrader for $1.5 billion.

此外，行業同行Kraken以15億美元的價格購買了期貨經紀人Ninjatrader。

Earlier this year, Deribit CEO Luuk Strijers said the company wasn’t officially for sale but it had attracted interest from several potential buyers due to its dominant market position.

Deribit首席執行官Luuk Strijers今年早些時候表示，該公司沒有正式出售，但由於其主要的市場地位，該公司引起了幾個潛在買家的興趣。

As of early May, sources say most of the deal terms have been finalized and only regulatory hurdles remain before the closure of the acquisition.

消息人士稱，截至5月初，大多數交易條款已經完成，只有監管障礙在收購之前仍保留。

If approved, the deal will not only bring Deribit’s deep derivatives liquidity into Coinbase’s fold but also provide the U.S. firm with a licensed offshore exchange to serve institutional traders, potentially transforming Coinbase’s global trading capabilities.

如果獲得批准，該交易不僅將使Deribit的深層流動性進入Coinbase的折扣，而且還為美國公司提供了許可的離岸交易所，以服務於機構交易者，從而有可能改變Coinbase的全球交易能力。
