Coinbase收购Deribit，最大的加密货币期权交易所，价格为$ 2.9B

今天，Coinbase确认它已同意收购Deribit，这是最大的加密货币期权交易所以29亿美元的价格交换，其中包括7亿美元现金，并拥有股票余额。

Coinbase is acquiring Deribinet, the largest crypto options exchange, for $2.9 billion, to be paid $700 million in cash and the balance in stock, the company announced on Wednesday.

该公司周三宣布，Coinbase正在以29亿美元的价格收购Deribinet，这是最大的加密货币期权交易所，其现金为7亿美元和股票余额。

Deribit may not be the number one overall in crypto derivatives, but it is the world leader in crypto options. It currently has more than $30 billion in open interest. Coinbase already has a derivatives subsidiary, which is particularly active in perpetual futures, so Deribit complements this well. The acquirer claims the combination will make it the derivatives market leader.

deribit可能不是加密衍生品的总数，但它是加密选择的世界领导者。目前，它拥有超过300亿美元的开放利息。 Coinbase已经拥有一个衍生品子公司，该子公司在永久期货中特别活跃，因此deribit可以很好地补充这一点。收购方声称该组合将使它成为衍生品市场的领导者。

“We’re excited to join forces with Coinbase to power a new era in global crypto derivatives,” said Deribit CEO Luuk Strijers. “As the leading crypto options platform, we’ve built a strong, profitable business, and this acquisition will accelerate the foundation we laid while providing traders with even more opportunities across spot, futures, perpetuals, and options – all one trusted brand.”

Deribit首席执行官Luuk Strijers说：“我们很高兴与Coinbase联合起来为全球加密衍生品的新时代提供动力。” “作为领先的加密货币选择平台，我们建立了一家强大，有利可图的业务，这项收购将加速我们为贸易商提供更多机会，期货，永久性和期权的更多机会 - 都是一个值得信赖的品牌。”

Beyond market position, Coinbase highlighted financial benefits, noting that Deribit will help to even out its earnings by diversifying revenues streams because options earnings are less cyclical compared to spot.

除了市场地位之外，Coinbase强调了财务利益，并指出Deribit将通过多样化的收入来源来帮助获得其收益，因为与现货相比，期权收入的周期性较小。

Deribit was founded in the Netherlands but operated out of Panama for several years, before moving recently to Dubai. A key driver was to provide regulatory certainty to its institutional clients, which make up 80-90% of its client base.

Deribit成立于荷兰，但在最近搬到迪拜之前在巴拿马经营了几年。一个关键的驱动力是为其机构客户提供监管确定性，占其客户群的80-90％。

The transaction is expected to close by the end of the year, subject to regulatory approvals.

预计该交易将在今年年底之前完成，但要获得监管批准。
