One path to success runs through Coinbase, whose decision to list or not list an asset can cause enormous price swings. There are now fewer than 60 cryptocurrencies that Coinbase supports for at least some clients, though some are only available in some jurisdictions or for some services. The lack of clear legality for many cryptos means Coinbase’s determinations can be make-or-break for much of the crypto universe.<blockquote>现在有几千个币，预计大部分都会失败。一条成功之路贯穿Coinbase，其上市或不上市资产的决定可能会导致巨大的价格波动。目前，Coinbase至少为某些客户支持的加密货币不到60种，尽管有些仅在某些司法管辖区或某些服务中可用。许多加密货币缺乏明确的合法性，这意味着Coinbase的决定可能会决定大部分加密货币领域的成败。</blockquote>The “Coinbase effect” is&nbsp; similar — though different in some key respects — to the role that S&amp;P Dow Jones Indices plays in anointing certain securities to major indexes like theS&amp;P 500.<blockquote>“比特币基地效应”与标准普尔道琼斯指数在将某些证券纳入标准普尔500等主要指数方面所扮演的角色相似，尽管在一些关键方面有所不同。</blockquote>Coinbase’s impact is arguably even more important than that of a stock index company, because, unlike stocks, most tokens have not received the blessing of regulators. Getting Coinbase’s imprimatur has become particularly important for many entrepreneurs looking to enter the space — and it’s a crucial factor for investors looking to put money into more cryptocurrencies beyond just the household names like Bitcoin and Ether.<blockquote>Coinbase的影响可以说甚至比股票指数公司还要重要，因为与股票不同，大多数代币都没有得到监管机构的加持。对于许多希望进入该领域的企业家来说，获得Coinbase的批准变得尤为重要，对于希望将资金投入更多加密货币而不仅仅是比特币和以太等家喻户晓的加密货币的投资者来说，这也是一个至关重要的因素。</blockquote>Coinbase’s role as a gatekeeper is one gauge of just how important the exchange is to the market — and whyits direct stock listing this Wednesdaycould value the company at more than $100 billion, a remarkably high multiple of its $1.3 billion 2020 revenue.<blockquote>Coinbase作为看门人的角色是该交易所对市场重要性的一个衡量标准，也是该交易所本周三直接上市的股票可能使该公司估值超过1000亿美元，是其2020年13亿美元收入的极高倍数。</blockquote>A multiple of 80 times revenue might seem stratospheric for a traditional tech company, but perhaps not so outlandish for a linchpin of an industry now worth $2 trillion.<blockquote>对于一家传统科技公司来说，80倍的收入似乎很高，但对于一个目前价值2万亿美元的行业的关键人物来说，也许并不那么奇怪。</blockquote>A report released last month by the crypto research firm Messari found that assets listed on Coinbase had an average gain of 91% in the five days after the listing announcement. That said, the number masks a wide variance in outcomes that is severely skewed by a few outliers. Performance ranged from a 32% drop to a 645% gain. After removing the outliers, Messari found that the average gain was 29%.<blockquote>加密货币研究公司Messari上个月发布的一份报告发现，在Coinbase上市的资产在上市公告后的五天内平均上涨了91%。也就是说，这个数字掩盖了结果的巨大差异，这种差异被一些异常值严重扭曲。业绩从下降32%到增长645%不等。去除异常值后，Messari发现平均增益为29%。</blockquote>It’s not just the price effect that matters. A Coinbase listing can open tokens to millions of new users — 56 million people had Coinbase accounts at the end of the first quarter.<blockquote>重要的不仅仅是价格效应。Coinbase上市可以向数百万新用户开放代币——截至第一季度末，有5600万人拥有Coinbase账户。</blockquote>Cryptocurrencies are often designed to be more than just assets . Many have utility as tokens in a network that can be used for specific purposes like buying file storage. Shareholders, by comparison, are often passive actors who simply want their stock to rise. Increasing the number of token-holders is doubly important in the crypto world.<blockquote>加密货币通常不仅仅是资产。许多在网络中用作令牌，可用于特定目的，如购买文件存储。相比之下，股东往往是被动的参与者，他们只是希望自己的股票上涨。在加密世界中，增加代币持有者的数量尤为重要。</blockquote>For Matthew Liu, the co-founder of Origin Protocol, Coinbase’s decision to list Origin tokens last week was a huge moment.<blockquote>对于Origin Protocol联合创始人Matthew Liu来说，Coinbase上周决定上市Origin代币是一个重大时刻。</blockquote>“When Coinbase decides to list you, it’s a very powerful branding effect,” he said in an interview withBarron’s. “That’s one very positive thing. But more important is that Coinbase is an exchange that has millions of users, and many of these users are what we call crypto normals. So a lot of retail people that are just learning about cryptocurrencies. And also very importantly, Coinbase is based in the United States.”<blockquote>“当Coinbase决定让你上市时，这是一个非常强大的品牌效应，”他在接受采访时表示。巴伦周刊“这是一件非常积极的事情。但更重要的是，Coinbase是一家拥有数百万用户的交易所，其中许多用户是我们看涨期权的加密正常人。所以很多散户刚刚了解加密货币。而且非常重要的是，Coinbase总部位于美国。”</blockquote>Origin’s ownership base had mostly been outside the U.S., but Liu says he is now likely to get more U.S. users. Origin aims to be a kind of Shopify of the crypto universe, building consumer-friendly applications for complex products likenonfungible tokens(NFTs).<blockquote>Origin的用户群大多在美国以外，但刘表示，他现在可能会获得更多的美国用户。Origin的目标是成为加密领域的Shopify，为不可替代代币(NFT)等复杂产品构建消费者友好的应用程序。</blockquote>The Coinbase listing “allows us to bring our cryptocurrency and commerce products to the US mainstream, which is a very desired audience,” Liu said. “And it’s just a very, very validating moment for us as a company.”<blockquote>刘说，比特币基地的上市“使我们能够将我们的加密货币和商业产品带到美国主流，这是一个非常受欢迎的受众”。“对于我们公司来说，这是一个非常非常值得验证的时刻。”</blockquote>Origin’s price went about 30% the day of the announcement, though it has since lost some of that bounce and was down about 6% on Monday.<blockquote>Origin的价格在消息发布当天上涨了约30%，但此后失去了部分反弹，周一下跌了约6%。</blockquote>Liu says that Coinbase’s impending listing, set for this Wednesday, makes the timing even more fortuitous, because its public market debut will be “a big validation for the entire cryptocurrency and blockchain industries.”<blockquote>刘表示，Coinbase即将于本周三上市，这使得这个时机变得更加偶然，因为它的公开市场首次亮相将是“对整个加密货币和区块链行业的一次重大验证”。</blockquote>“We think that there’s going to be a ton of new entrants into this space,” Liu said.<blockquote>“我们认为这个领域将会有大量新进入者，”刘说。</blockquote>Coinbase’s method for deciding whether to list a token is complex and some of it remains mysterious. Asked about his conversations with the company before listing, Liu sentBarron’s&nbsp;the Coinbase blog postabout the listing. “I am not at liberty to describe the rest of the listing process,” he added.<blockquote>Coinbase决定是否上市代币的方法很复杂，其中一些仍然神秘。问及上市前与公司的对话情况，刘发巴伦周刊比特币基地的博客帖子是关于上市的。“我无权描述上市过程的其余部分，”他补充道。</blockquote>Liu said he wasn’t told of the listing decision until it became public to everyone. Coinbase executives could not speak in detail about the process because of the impending stock listing.<blockquote>刘说，直到上市决定向所有人公开后，他才被告知。由于股票即将上市，Coinbase高管无法详细谈论这一过程。</blockquote>Coinbase allows creators and users of cryptocurrenciesto submit applications through a public websiteand then reviews them for security, legal, and compliance issues. Coinbase can also decide on its own to list cryptocurrencies with or without an application.<blockquote>比特币基地允许加密货币的创建者和用户通过公共网站提交申请，然后审查其安全、法律和合规问题。Coinbase还可以自行决定在有或没有应用程序的情况下列出加密货币。</blockquote>The process can take weeks and involves such complex issues as reviewing legality in jurisdictions all over the world. In addition, the company has to review the technology behind each protocol and figure out how to make it integrate seamlessly with its platform.<blockquote>这一过程可能需要数周时间，并涉及审查世界各地司法管辖区的合法性等复杂问题。此外，该公司还必须审查每个协议背后的技术，并弄清楚如何使其与其平台无缝集成。</blockquote>The process hasn’t always been smooth. Coinbasepulled its listing of XRP, one of the most valuable cryptocurrencies, in December after the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission sued the company behind the cryptocurrency. And Coinbase’s listing of a Bitcoin spinoff called Bitcoin Cashcaused controversy given the rise in the value of Bitcoin Cash prior to the announcement. Coinbase said its internal investigation of activity around that listing, conducted by a law firm, turned up no wrongdoing.<blockquote>这个过程并不总是一帆风顺。在美国证券交易委员会起诉加密货币背后的公司后，Coinbase于去年12月撤回了最有价值的加密货币之一XRP的上市。鉴于比特币现金的价值在宣布这一消息之前上涨，Coinbase在比特币分拆公司比特币现金的上市引起了争议。Coinbase表示，由一家律师事务所对此次上市活动进行的内部调查没有发现任何不当行为。</blockquote>While Coinbase’s role as a gatekeeper is crucial, it is often dependent on circumstances. Tokens that have a broad user base or are not controversial may not always move much on the Coinbase announcement. The Coinbase effect has less of an impact as it used to, some industry experts said.<blockquote>虽然Coinbase作为看门人的角色至关重要，但这往往取决于具体情况。拥有广泛用户群或没有争议的代币可能并不总是在Coinbase公告中有太大变化。一些行业专家表示，Coinbase效应的影响不如以前了。</blockquote>The effect has “diminished significantly” from a few years ago, when Coinbase listed fewer than 10 assets, noted Matt Hougan, chief investment officer of Bitwise Asset Management, a cryptocurrency fund provider. Outside factors can also be important.<blockquote>加密货币基金提供商Bitwise Asset Management首席投资官马特·霍根(Matt Hougan)指出，与几年前相比，这种影响已经“显着减弱”，当时Coinbase上市的资产不到10种。外部因素也很重要。</blockquote>The research firm Messari found that the market impact is often dependent on the performance of the wider crypto universe, so a big debut could struggle if Bitcoin and other tokens are having a rough day.<blockquote>研究公司Messari发现，市场影响往往取决于更广泛的加密领域的表现，因此如果比特币和其他代币经历了艰难的一天，大型首次亮相可能会举步维艰。</blockquote>In addition, the Coinbase effect may diminish as governments give more regulatory guidance about cryptocurrencies, and as other exchanges grow in prominence. It will be worth watching if the value of Coinbase’s stock changes based on these issues as well.<blockquote>此外，随着政府对加密货币提供更多监管指导，以及其他交易所日益突出，Coinbase效应可能会减弱。如果Coinbase的股票价值也因这些问题而发生变化，那将是值得关注的。</blockquote>“We continue to gain more regulatory clarity for cryptoassets in general in the US,” Garrick Hileman, head of research at Blockchain.com, wrote in an email toBarron’s.“More exchanges are also achieving regulatory and compliance parity with Coinbase, with some even exceeding Coinbase in some areas such as gaining bank charters. These developments will erode the signaling value carried by a Coinbase addition compared to times when regulations were murkier and Coinbases possessed a greater compliance lead over its competitors.”<blockquote>Blockchain.com研究主管Garrick Hileman在给巴伦周刊。“更多的交易所也在实现与Coinbase的监管和合规水平，有些交易所甚至在某些领域超过了Coinbase，例如获得银行牌照。与监管更加模糊和Coinbase拥有比竞争对手更大的合规性领先优势相比，这些发展将削弱Coinbase加入所带来的信号价值。”</blockquote>","source":"lsy1610680873436","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>The 'Coinbase Effect' Helps Explain a Possible $100 Billion Market Valuation<blockquote>“Coinbase效应”有助于解释可能达到1000亿美元的市场估值</blockquote></title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 12.5px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nThe 'Coinbase Effect' Helps Explain a Possible $100 Billion Market Valuation<blockquote>“Coinbase效应”有助于解释可能达到1000亿美元的市场估值</blockquote>\n</h2>\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\nBarron's2021-04-13 17:43\n\n</h4>\n</header>\n<article>\nThe promise of cryptocurrencies is that they have no gatekeeper, because control over them is decentralized.

But there is at least one gatekeeper that can make or break digital assets.Coinbase, the dominant U.S. digital asset exchange, plays a big role in what cryptocurrencies gain acceptance and which ones may be left behind.There are now thousands of coins, and most of them are expected to fail. One path to success runs through Coinbase, whose decision to list or not list an asset can cause enormous price swings. There are now fewer than 60 cryptocurrencies that Coinbase supports for at least some clients, though some are only available in some jurisdictions or for some services. The lack of clear legality for many cryptos means Coinbase’s determinations can be make-or-break for much of the crypto universe.The “Coinbase effect” is  similar — though different in some key respects — to the role that S&P Dow Jones Indices plays in anointing certain securities to major indexes like theS&P 500.Coinbase’s impact is arguably even more important than that of a stock index company, because, unlike stocks, most tokens have not received the blessing of regulators. Getting Coinbase’s imprimatur has become particularly important for many entrepreneurs looking to enter the space — and it’s a crucial factor for investors looking to put money into more cryptocurrencies beyond just the household names like Bitcoin and Ether.Coinbase’s role as a gatekeeper is one gauge of just how important the exchange is to the market — and whyits direct stock listing this Wednesdaycould value the company at more than $100 billion, a remarkably high multiple of its $1.3 billion 2020 revenue.A multiple of 80 times revenue might seem stratospheric for a traditional tech company, but perhaps not so outlandish for a linchpin of an industry now worth $2 trillion.A report released last month by the crypto research firm Messari found that assets listed on Coinbase had an average gain of 91% in the five days after the listing announcement. That said, the number masks a wide variance in outcomes that is severely skewed by a few outliers. Performance ranged from a 32% drop to a 645% gain. After removing the outliers, Messari found that the average gain was 29%.It’s not just the price effect that matters. A Coinbase listing can open tokens to millions of new users — 56 million people had Coinbase accounts at the end of the first quarter.Cryptocurrencies are often designed to be more than just assets . Many have utility as tokens in a network that can be used for specific purposes like buying file storage. Shareholders, by comparison, are often passive actors who simply want their stock to rise. Increasing the number of token-holders is doubly important in the crypto world.For Matthew Liu, the co-founder of Origin Protocol, Coinbase’s decision to list Origin tokens last week was a huge moment.“When Coinbase decides to list you, it’s a very powerful branding effect,” he said in an interview withBarron’s. “That’s one very positive thing. But more important is that Coinbase is an exchange that has millions of users, and many of these users are what we call crypto normals. So a lot of retail people that are just learning about cryptocurrencies. And also very importantly, Coinbase is based in the United States.”Origin’s ownership base had mostly been outside the U.S., but Liu says he is now likely to get more U.S. users. Origin aims to be a kind of Shopify of the crypto universe, building consumer-friendly applications for complex products likenonfungible tokens(NFTs).The Coinbase listing “allows us to bring our cryptocurrency and commerce products to the US mainstream, which is a very desired audience,” Liu said. “And it’s just a very, very validating moment for us as a company.”Origin’s price went about 30% the day of the announcement, though it has since lost some of that bounce and was down about 6% on Monday.Liu says that Coinbase’s impending listing, set for this Wednesday, makes the timing even more fortuitous, because its public market debut will be “a big validation for the entire cryptocurrency and blockchain industries.”“We think that there’s going to be a ton of new entrants into this space,” Liu said.Coinbase’s method for deciding whether to list a token is complex and some of it remains mysterious. Asked about his conversations with the company before listing, Liu sentBarron’s the Coinbase blog postabout the listing. “I am not at liberty to describe the rest of the listing process,” he added.Liu said he wasn’t told of the listing decision until it became public to everyone. Coinbase executives could not speak in detail about the process because of the impending stock listing.Coinbase allows creators and users of cryptocurrenciesto submit applications through a public websiteand then reviews them for security, legal, and compliance issues. Coinbase can also decide on its own to list cryptocurrencies with or without an application.The process can take weeks and involves such complex issues as reviewing legality in jurisdictions all over the world. In addition, the company has to review the technology behind each protocol and figure out how to make it integrate seamlessly with its platform.The process hasn’t always been smooth. Coinbasepulled its listing of XRP, one of the most valuable cryptocurrencies, in December after the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission sued the company behind the cryptocurrency. And Coinbase’s listing of a Bitcoin spinoff called Bitcoin Cashcaused controversy given the rise in the value of Bitcoin Cash prior to the announcement. Coinbase said its internal investigation of activity around that listing, conducted by a law firm, turned up no wrongdoing.While Coinbase’s role as a gatekeeper is crucial, it is often dependent on circumstances. Tokens that have a broad user base or are not controversial may not always move much on the Coinbase announcement. The Coinbase effect has less of an impact as it used to, some industry experts said.The effect has “diminished significantly” from a few years ago, when Coinbase listed fewer than 10 assets, noted Matt Hougan, chief investment officer of Bitwise Asset Management, a cryptocurrency fund provider. Outside factors can also be important.The research firm Messari found that the market impact is often dependent on the performance of the wider crypto universe, so a big debut could struggle if Bitcoin and other tokens are having a rough day.In addition, the Coinbase effect may diminish as governments give more regulatory guidance about cryptocurrencies, and as other exchanges grow in prominence. It will be worth watching if the value of Coinbase’s stock changes based on these issues as well.“We continue to gain more regulatory clarity for cryptoassets in general in the US,” Garrick Hileman, head of research at Blockchain.com, wrote in an email toBarron’s.“More exchanges are also achieving regulatory and compliance parity with Coinbase, with some even exceeding Coinbase in some areas such as gaining bank charters.
