Pertukaran kriptoCoinbase Global Inc. mengatakan melihat peningkatan aktivitas pada platform perdagangannya menyusul drama atas potensi akuisisi FTX oleh Binance.
Krisis likuiditas yang mendorong perjanjian tentatif Binance dengan FTX tidak akan terjadi di Coinbase karena perusahaan tidak terlibat dalam "perilaku berisiko," kata Chief Executive Officer Brian Armstrong dalam wawancara dengan Bloomberg Television.
"Kami tidak menginvestasikan dana pelanggan," katanya. “Kami tidak melakukan pembuatan pasar atau terlibat dalam pengaturan rumit apa pun dengan pihak lain yang kami miliki.”
Kesepakatan potensial antara Binance dan FTX muncul setelah Binance Chief Executive Officer Changpeng “CZ” Zhao mengatakan perusahaan menjual semua kepemilikan FTT, token asli FTX, yang berjumlah $529 juta.
Tweet tersebut mengikuti laporan yang menyatakan bahwa Alameda Research, perusahaan perdagangan yang didirikan dan dimiliki oleh Sam Bankman-Fried, memiliki sejumlah besar asetnya di FTT.
Jika kesepakatan dengan Binance gagal, itu kemungkinan berarti pelanggan FTX akan mengalami kerugian, menurut Armstrong.
"Itu bukan hal yang baik untuk siapa pun," katanya. Dia mencatat bahwa pelanggan berisiko ketika mereka pergi ke bursa luar negeri yang kurang diatur yang tidak harus memberikan laporan keuangan yang jelas.
Coinbase tidak memiliki rencana untuk mencoba dan membeli FTX US, afiliasi FTX Amerika, yang bukan merupakan bagian dari kesepakatan Binance, menurut Armstrong. Dia mengatakan ada alasan mengapa akuisisi itu tidak masuk akal bagi perusahaannya, tetapi dia tidak akan memberikan rinciannya.
Armstrong mengatakan bahwa dia berharap masalah keuangan yang dihadapi oleh FTX tidak akan "mencemari" pandangan regulator tentang industri crypto, tetapi mencatat bahwa persepsi mereka tentang Chief Executive Officer FTX Bankman-Fried kemungkinan besar akan berubah. Pria berusia 30 tahun ini telah hadir secara aktif di Washington dalam hal melobi regulasi industri.
"Mungkin ada banyak orang di DC saat ini yang sedang menggaruk-garuk kepala," kata Armstrong.
