在接受 Ark 的 Cathie Wood 采访时，Coinbase 创始人兼首席执行官 Brian Armstrong 分享了他对加密货币领域正在发生的一些关键事情以及该平台的一些最新发展的想法。此次对话是在 2024 年加密货币峰会上进行的。

Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong recently sat down with Ark Invest’s Cathie Wood to discuss some of the key developments in the crypto space, including the launch of Coinbase's Base and the potential for crypto to power a significant portion of global GDP.

Coinbase 首席执行官 Brian Armstrong 最近与 Ark Invest 的 Cathie Wood 坐下来讨论了加密领域的一些关键发展，包括 Coinbase Base 的推出以及加密为全球 GDP 很大一部分提供动力的潜力。

During the conversation at the State of Crypto Summit 2024, Armstrong highlighted the exchange's layer-2 solution, Base, and its role in advancing blockchain technology. He likened the transition from layer-1 to layer-2 networks to the shift from dial-up to broadband internet, highlighting the improved speed and reduced costs.

在 2024 年加密货币峰会的谈话中，阿姆斯特朗强调了该交易所的第 2 层解决方案 Base 及其在推进区块链技术方面的作用。他将从第一层到第二层网络的转变比作从拨号到宽带互联网的转变，强调了速度的提高和成本的降低。

Armstrong also emphasized the evolution of crypto from a mere asset class, now used by over 400 million people to a tool for real-world utility, like payments, voting, decentralized social networks, etc. These developments are crucial for increasing global crypto adoption, potentially reaching over a billion users.

阿姆斯特朗还强调了加密货币从目前被超过 4 亿人使用的单纯资产类别演变为现实世界实用工具，如支付、投票、去中心化社交网络等。这些发展对于提高全球加密货币采用率至关重要，可能覆盖超过十亿用户。

Armstrong also discussed the potential of decentralized finance (DeFi) in offering greater financial inclusion and empowering individuals, especially in countries with limited access to traditional banking systems. He highlighted the role of crypto in enabling voting systems that are more secure, transparent, and accessible than traditional methods.

阿姆斯特朗还讨论了去中心化金融（DeFi）在提供更大的金融包容性和赋予个人权力方面的潜力，特别是在传统银行系统访问权限有限的国家。他强调了加密货币在使投票系统比传统方法更安全、更透明、更易于访问方面的作用。

The Coinbase CEO also touched upon the transformative potential of peer-to-peer transactions in eliminating intermediaries and reducing economic friction. He pointed out how real-time settlement through crypto can cut out middlemen and the associated risks of intraday settlement.

Coinbase 首席执行官还谈到了点对点交易在消除中介机构和减少经济摩擦方面的变革潜力。他指出通过加密货币进行实时结算如何能够消除中间商以及日内结算的相关风险。

Armstrong concluded by envisioning a future where crypto powers a significant portion of global GDP, due to its efficiency. He predicted that within a decade, 25% of global GDP could be conducted via crypto rails, driven by their ability to streamline and simplify economic transactions.

阿姆斯特朗总结道，未来加密货币因其效率而将占全球 GDP 的很大一部分。他预测，在十年内，全球 GDP 的 25% 可以通过加密货币轨道进行，这得益于加密货币轨道简化和简化经济交易的能力。
