加密銀行錨定數字通過獲取Stablecoin發行人山協議來擴展其Stablecoin的產品

此次收購將受到習慣關閉條件和監管批准的約束，將將山區協議團隊，技術堆棧和許可框架整合到Anchorage的現有產品中

Crypto bank Anchorage Digital has expanded its stablecoin offerings with the acquisition of Mountain Protocol, a stablecoin issuer that says it will begin winding down its main stablecoin, Mountain USD (USDM).

Crypto Bank Anchorage Digital通過收購Mountain Protastion（Stablecoin發行人的山地協議）擴大了其Stablecoin的產品，該協議將開始結束其主要的Stablecoin Mountain USD（USDM）。

The acquisition, which is subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory approval, will integrate the Mountain Protocol team, tech stack and licensing framework into Anchorage’s existing offerings, Anchorage said in a May 12 statement.

安克雷奇在5月12日的聲明中說，此次收購將受到習慣關閉條件和監管批准的約束，將將山區協議團隊，技術堆棧和許可框架整合到安克雷奇現有的現有產品中。

While terms of the deal weren’t disclosed, it reflects an accelerating number of acquisitions between crypto and TradFi firms in recent months.

儘管沒有披露該交易的條款，但它反映了近幾個月來加密貨幣公司與Tradfi公司之間的大量收購。

Explaining the acquisition, Anchorage CEO Nathan McCauley said stablecoins are becoming the backbone of the crypto economy, while anticipating that “every business” will eventually use stablecoins as part of their operations.

安克雷奇首席執行官內森·麥考利（Nathan McCauley）在解釋收購時說，穩定幣正成為加密經濟的骨幹，同時預計“每家企業”最終將使用Stablecoins作為其業務的一部分。

“We are already seeing this in the emerging tokenization of U.S. equities, which will bring a whole new class of investors into crypto markets,” McCauley said.

麥卡利說：“我們已經在美國股票的新興令牌化中看到了這一點，這將使全新的投資者進入加密貨幣市場。”

Martin Carrica, CEO of Mountain Protocol, said its stablecoin experience and Anchorage’s crypto infrastructure will bring together the best of both worlds to meet the growing global demand for stablecoin services.

山協議首席執行官馬丁·卡里卡（Martin Carrica）表示，其Stablecoin經驗和安克雷奇的加密基礎設施將匯集兩全其美的最佳，以滿足不斷增長的全球對Stablecoin服務的需求。

Anchorage is the only federally chartered digital asset bank in the U.S., while Mountain Protocol’s stablecoin services are regulated by the Bermuda Monetary Authority.

錨地是美國唯一的聯邦特許數字資產銀行，而山協議的Stablecoin服務受百慕大貨幣管理局的監管。

It comes around nine months after Anchorage introduced a stablecoin rewards program for institutions holding the PayPal USD (PYUSD) stablecoin.

安克雷奇（Anchorage）引入了持有PayPal USD（PYUSD）Stablecoin的機構的Stablecoin獎勵計劃大約九個月。

Announced in August 2023, the program saw institutions rewarded with 1% APY for their PYUSD holdings, which was part of a broader partnership to make the stablecoin more accessible to institutions.

該計劃於2023年8月宣布，該機構以其Pyusd Holdings獲得了1％的APY獎勵，這是使Stablecoin更容易被機構訪問的更廣泛合作夥伴關係的一部分。

Institutions could also earn up to 3% APY for completing specific tasks, such as performing cross-border payments or liquidity provision.

機構還可以賺取最高3％的APY來完成特定任務，例如執行跨境支付或流動性提供。

Mountain Protocol’s USDM to wind down

山區協議的USDM結束

As part of the acquisition, Mountain Protocol said it would begin an “orderly wind-down process” for USDM, which operates as a yield-bearing stablecoin.

作為收購的一部分，Mountain Protogent表示，它將開始對USDM進行“有序的降雨過程”，該工藝作為承重穩定的穩定性。

The process will see minting of the stablecoin cease immediately, while USDM rewards will remain active for another 30 days. After that, the reward rate will be set to 0% APY.

該過程將立即看到Stablecoin的鑄造，而USDM獎勵將繼續活躍30天。之後，獎勵率將設置為0％APY。

The stablecoin issuer’s customers can redeem their USDM through its platform, while other USDM holders are encouraged to swap the stablecoin for other tokens on exchanges.

Stablecoin發行人的客戶可以通過其平台兌換其USDM，而鼓勵其他USDM持有人將Stablecoin交換為交易所中的其他令牌。

“We are grateful to the community for their support of USDM and look forward to continuing to serve them in this transition,” Carrica said.

卡里卡說：“我們感謝社區對USDM的支持，並期待在這種過渡中繼續為他們服務。”

Mountain Protocol’s Ethereum-based USDM is not to be confused with Mehen Finance’s USDM stablecoin, which runs on the Cardano network.

Mountain協議的基於以太坊的USDM不應與Mehen Finance的USDM Stablecoin混淆，後者在Cardano網絡上運行。

At the time of writing, Mehen Finance’s USDM has a market cap of around $36 million, compared to Mountain Protocol’s USDM, which is valued at less than $50 million, according to RWA.xyz.

根據RWA.xyz的數據，在撰寫本文時，Mehen Finance的USDM的市值約為3600萬美元，而Mountain Protoct的USDM的價值不到5000萬美元。

RWA.xyz estimates there are around 10,820 USDM holders.

RWA.XYZ估計有大約10,820 USDM持有人。
