XRP 在增長路徑上 Ripple 考慮購買現金拮据的公司Celsius的資產
Ripple, the blockchain payments company behind the XRP cryptocurrency, is reportedly considering acquiring assets belonging to beleaguered crypto lending firm Celsius.
According to a Reuters report, a spokesperson from Ripple disclosed that the firm was “interested in learning about Celsius and its assets,” in addition to assessing whether any of them could be relevant to their business. The move was informed by Ripple’s continued growth and desire to expand its business despite the hurdles facing the crypto market at large. Ripple “正在積極尋找併購機會，以戰略性地擴大公司規模，” 發言人說。
此舉是在攝氏之後 申請破產 1.2 月，以“極端市場條件”為由，並承認其資產負債表存在 XNUMX 億美元的漏洞。 然而，Celsius 對收購要約持開放態度，儘管它正在為一直在對其施加壓力的債權人探索救助途徑。
The June chapter 11 bankruptcy filings disclosed that Celcius holds a variety of possessions including digital assets held in custody accounts, loans, the company’s own CEL token, Bank cash and a bitcoin mining business. Last week, Ripple lawyers made an application seeking to be enjoined in the bankruptcy proceedings despite not being a major creditor for Celcius.
雖然 Ripple has not done any major acquisition deals previously, some pundits believe Celsius’s attractive legal background could be the key reason for Ripple’s increased interest in the firm, especially given its 混戰 與證券交易委員會。
“我們知道 Ripple is trying to buy Celsius. Why? Celsius marketed itself as a type of crypto bank,” 貝萊德數字產品經理 Lisa Daly 說， “Celsius 網絡是一個受監管的、‘符合 SEC 標準’的借貸平台，它使用戶能夠獲得所存加密貨幣的利息或獲取加密貨幣抵押貸款。”
Celsius 由首席執行官 Alex Mashinsky 於 2017 年創立，由於其對用戶具有吸引力的利率而迅速增長，去年估值為 3.5 億美元。 然而，該公司發現自己陷入了流動性危機，儘管其債務利率仍然居高不下，但其大部分加密資產與廣泛的加密市場一起貶值。 金融管理不善和 Terra 引發的穩定幣內爆風暴給幾家著名的行業參與者造成了廣泛的損失，後來讓攝氏公司屈服了。
That said, while a favourable outcome could come out of Ripple’s quest, it is unclear if the firm seeks to acquire Celsius altogether. In June, a source revealed that FTX “was interested in making a deal with Celsius but walked away” because of the irredeemable state of its finances, instead settling on BlockFi.
