Coinbase考慮採用Michael Saylor的比特幣投資劇本，但決定反對

輸入：據報導，Coinbase考慮採用像Michael Saylor的策略這樣的比特幣投資劇本

Coinbase has reportedly considered adopting a Bitcoin investment playbook like Michael Saylor’s Strategy on multiple occasions, but decided against it each time out of fear that it would kill the firm’s crypto exchange.

據報導，Coinbase已考慮採用比特幣投資劇本，例如Michael Saylor的策略多次，但每次都因擔心會殺死公司的加密交易所而決定反對它。

“There were definitely moments over the last 12 years where we thought, man, should we put 80% of our balance sheet into crypto — into Bitcoin specifically,” Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong told Bloomberg in a May 9 video call.

Coinbase首席執行官Brian Armstrong在5月9日的視頻通話中告訴彭博社，“在過去的12年中，肯定有一些時刻，我們認為，我們是否應該將資產負債表的80％放入加密貨幣。”

Armstrong said the Bitcoin (BTC) strategy could have risked the company’s cash position and potentially killed the crypto exchange. “We made a conscious choice about risk,” he added.

阿姆斯特朗說，比特幣（BTC）戰略可能冒著公司現金狀況的風險，並有可能殺死加密貨幣交易所。他補充說：“我們對風險做出了有意識的選擇。”

Coinbase Chief Financial Officer Alesia Haas, who also attended the video call, added that the firm didn’t want to be seen as directly competing against its customers over which cryptocurrencies would outperform.

Coinbase首席財務官Alesia Haas還參加了視頻電話，並補充說，該公司不想被視為直接與加密貨幣勝過的客戶競爭。

“Rest assured, we are not stopping there,” Haas said, as Coinbase reported purchasing another $153 million worth of crypto assets in its first quarter results statement on May 8, which was primarily concentrated in Bitcoin.

哈斯說：“放心，我們不會停在那裡。”

According to BitcoinTreasuries.net, Coinbase holds 9,480 Bitcoin — worth $988 million at current market prices — which makes up the majority of its $1.3 billion crypto asset holdings.

根據BitCoinReasuries.net的數據，Coinbase持有9,480個比特幣（以當前的市場價格價值9.88億美元），這佔其13億美元的加密貨幣資產持有量的大部分。

Armstrong’s crypto exchange is the ninth-largest corporate Bitcoin holder, trailing the likes of Strategy, Bitcoin miner MARA Holdings and Tesla.

阿姆斯特朗的加密交易所是第九大公司比特幣持有人，落後於戰略，比特幣礦工Mara Holdings和Tesla。

Several companies have begun copying Saylor’s Bitcoin playbook, funding purchases through stock and debt sales on the bet that Bitcoin’s price appreciation will boost their share prices.

幾家公司已經開始復制Saylor的比特幣劇本，通過股票和債務銷售進行資金購買，以押注比特幣的價格讚賞將提高其股價。

Over 100 public companies in total now hold Bitcoin around the world, while another 40 exchange-traded fund issuers, 26 private firms and 12 nation states have also reported holding the cryptocurrency.

現在，總共有100多家上市公司在全球範圍內擁有比特幣，而另外40家交易所交易的基金發行人，26家私人公司和12個國家州也報告持有加密貨幣。
