Nasdaq is open to becoming cryptocurrency exchange, CEO says
纳斯达克首席执行官Adena Friedman表示，纳斯达克即将成为加密货币交易所
· Once the regulation is smoothed out and the space "matures", Nasdaq would consider becoming a digital currency exchange, the company's CEO says.
·Adena Friedman表示，一旦监管平稳并且市场“成熟”，纳斯达克将考虑成为数字货币交易所。
· "Certainly Nasdaq would consider becoming a crypto exchange over time," Nasdaq CEO Adena Friedman says.
·Adena Friedman表示：“纳斯达克当然会考虑随着时间的推移成为加密交易所。
· In the meantime, Nasdaq is supporting existing crypto exchanges, and announced a technology deal with Gemini Wednesday.
·与此同时，纳斯达克正在支持现有的加密交易所，并于周三宣布与Gemini签署技术协议。
"Certainly Nasdaq would consider becoming a crypto exchange over time," Nasdaq CEO Adena Friedman told CNBC's Squawk BoxWednesday. "If we do look at it and say 'it's time, people are ready for a more regulated market,' for something that provides a fair experience for investors."
Adena Friedman 周三接受CNBC的Squawk Box采访时说:“当然纳斯达克会考虑随着时间的推移成为一个加密交易所。如果我们看到并说'现在是时候了，人们已经准备好进入一个更加规范的市场'，因为这为投资者提供了一个公平的体验。”
A key roadblock for the Nasdaq and other institutional investors is regulation, which Friedman said needs to be ironed out before the company would add an exchange. But she was bullish on the future of digital assets.
纳斯达克和其他机构投资者碰到的一个主要障碍是监管，Adena Friedman表示需要在公司上交易所之前予以解决。但她对数字资产的未来充满信心。
"I believe that digital currencies will continue to persist it's just a matter of how long it will take for that space to mature," Friedman said. "Once you look at it and say, 'do we want to provide a regulated market for this?' Certainly Nasdaq would consider it."
Adena Friedman说:“我相信数字货币将继续坚持下去，只是这个市场需要多长时间才能成熟。一旦你觉得时间成熟并说'我们想为此提供一个受管制的市场吗?' 当然纳斯达克会考虑它的。”
In the meantime, the Nasdaq is supporting existing cryptoexchanges.
与此同时，纳斯达克正在支持现有的加密交易所。
On Wednesday, the company announced a collaboration with cryptocurrency exchange Gemini, founded by early bitcoin investors Tyler and Cameron Winklevoss. The deal gives Gemini access to Nasdaq's surveillance technology to help make sure the platform provides a fair and "rules-based marketplace," for their own participants, Gemini CEO Tyler Winklevoss said in a statement.
周三，该公司宣布与由早期比特币投资者Tyler和Cameron Winklevoss共同创立的加密货币交易所Gemini合作。Gemini首席执行官Tyler Winklevoss在一份声明中表示，这笔交易使Gemini能够获得纳斯达克的监控技术，以帮助确保该平台为其参与者提供公平和“基于规则的市场”。
While Friedman was optimistic about the future of cryptocurrencies she was less so on the fundraising process known as an initial coin offering, or ICO.
尽管Adena Friedman对加密货币的未来持乐观态度，但她对ICO并不乐观。
"ICOs need to be regulated," she said. "The SEC is right that those are securities and need to be regulated as such."
她说：“ICO需要受到监管。 美国证券交易委员会是正确的，那些证券类的令牌是需要进行监管。”
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission has cracked down on ICO fraud in 2018, and said in March it is looking to apply securities laws to everything from cryptocurrency exchanges to digital asset storage companies known as wallets. SEC Chairman Jay Clayton said the watchdog is devoting a "significant portion of resources" to the ICO market.
美国证券交易委员会在2018年已经打击ICO欺诈行为，并在3月份表示，它正在考虑将证券法应用于从加密货币交易所到被称为钱包的数字资产存储公司。美国证券交易委员会主席Jay Clayton表示，监管部门正在为ICO市场投入“巨大资源”。
The more than 1,300 percent rise of bitcoin prices last year certainly caught the attention of regulators. Bitcoin neared $20,000 in December before having its worst first quarter in history, dropping 48 percent in the first three months of this year. The cryptocurrency has recovered above $9,000 this week, and hit a high of $9,746.82 Wednesday, according to CoinDesk. The digital currency is up roughly 20 percent this week.
去年比特币价格上涨超过1,300％肯定引起了监管机构的关注。比特币在经历了历史上最差的第一季之前，在12月份接近20,000美元，今年前三个月下降了48％。根据CoinDesk的数据，本周加密电子货币已经恢复到9,000美元以上，周三触及高位9,746.82美元。数字货币本周上涨约20％。
