币安首席执行官 CZ 表示，尽管交易量下降 50%，该交易所“仍然盈利”

币安加密货币交易所首席执行官赵长鹏表示，该公司并不担心当前市场低迷导致的交易量低迷。

Binance cryptocurrency exchange is not concerned about the low trade volumes caused by the current market slump, according to CEO Changpeng Zhao in an interview with CNBC Africa posted on YouTube Nov. 8.

11 月 8 日，币安加密货币交易所首席执行官赵长鹏在 YouTube 上发布的 CNBC Africa 采访中表示，币安加密货币交易所并不担心当前市场低迷造成的交易量低迷。

Speaking on CNBC Africa’s “Crypto Trader” show, Changpeng Zhao — also known as CZ — said that the exchange is not worried by a volume drop of almost 50 percent since last month, when the market became “very stable.”

赵长鹏（又名 CZ）在 CNBC Africa 的“Crypto Trader”节目中表示，自上个月市场变得“非常稳定”以来，交易量下降了近 50%，该交易所并不担心。

Binance currently has one tenth of the trading volume it did in January 2018, but is still trading far above the volumes the exchange had “two or three years ago,” according to Zhao. The business is “still profitable,” he said.

赵表示，币安目前的交易量仅为 2018 年 1 月的十分之一，但仍远高于该交易所“两三年前”的交易量。他说，该业务“仍然有利可图”。

When asked if Binance is still opening new accounts “at an accelerating rate,” Zhao said that the exchange is still signing up new users, but not as much as in January or February, which was “a very crazy period.”

当被问及币安是否仍在“加速”开设新账户时，赵表示，该交易所仍在注册新用户，但不像一月或二月那么多，那是“一个非常疯狂的时期”。

In terms of the amount of cryptocurrency that Binance holds, Zhao stated that it is increasing very steadily, especially for Bitcoin (BTC) because “it is a constant volume coin.” Moreover, the exchange is seeing an increase of customers depositing BTC. He also suggested that markets are experiencing a slow down period.

就币安持有的加密货币数量而言，赵表示，它正在非常稳定地增长，特别是比特币（BTC），因为“它是一种恒定数量的货币”。此外，该交易所存入比特币的客户也在增加。他还表示，市场正在经历放缓期。

The decrease in the trading volume leads to prices stabilization, Zhao stated, and when people trade less, they usually shift coins to their wallets. However, Binance has seen the opposite. “When we see an increase in BTC holdings over time, that means that most likely people are not moving BTC to us,” he said.

赵表示，交易量的减少导致价格稳定，当人们交易减少时，他们通常会将代币转移到钱包中。然而，币安却看到了相反的情况。 “当我们看到比特币持有量随着时间的推移而增加时，这意味着很可能人们不会将比特币转移给我们，”他说。

Speaking about possible catalysts for market movement, Zhao said that he has no answer since “it is very hard to predict which one would be the trigger,” although he said he would bet on the entrance of institutions into the industry, as they will ostensibly bring more stable and regulated coins.

在谈到市场走势可能的催化剂时，赵说，他没有答案，因为“很难预测哪一个会成为触发因素”，尽管他表示，他会押注机构进入该行业，因为表面上它们会带来更稳定和受监管的硬币。

In October, investor and digital currency advocate Mike Novogratz predicted that institutional investors will start entering the market in the first or second quarter of 2019, which will result in new highs for the BTC price.

10月，投资者兼数字货币倡导者迈克·诺沃格拉茨(Mike Novogratz)预测，机构投资者将在2019年第一季度或第二季度开始进入市场，这将导致BTC价格再创新高。

Prior to that, Novogratz stated that the cryptocurrency market had found its bottom. “Bitcoin has held $6,000. Yes, it is off its highs, but it has established itself as a store of value,” he said.

此前，诺沃格拉茨表示，加密货币市场已经触底。 “比特币价格已达 6,000 美元。是的，它已经脱离了高点，但它已经成为一种价值储存手段，”他说。
