Brian Armstrong이 말하는 Coinbase의 보안 토큰 미래

최근 보안 토큰의 미래에 대해 이야기한 사람은 Brian Armstrong였습니다. TechCrunch가 주최한 2018년 샌프란시스코 Disrupt는 Armstrong이 이 새로운 자산 클래스에 대한 미래 비전을 전달하기에 완벽한 플랫폼을 제공했습니다.

During his time on stage, Armstrong touched on various aspects of the industry.

시장 정서

When asked about Bitcoin price actions, Armstrong was quick to convey that he is not concerned with the short term. The market is still emerging and he encourages investors to think long term. Due to the cyclical nature of the market, this current slump will be looked back upon as a minor bump in the road.

미래 확장

Not content with the status quo, Brian Armstrong laid out his vision for the future of Coinbase (COIN ). Here are a few key takeaways from his time on the mic:

• Armstrong은 대부분의 기술 스타트업이 몇 년 내에 토큰화될 것으로 예상합니다.
• Coinbase는 증권을 호스팅하고자 하며 이를 위해 라이선스를 취득하려는 움직임을 보이고 있습니다.
• 수백 개의 토큰이 몇 년 내에 플랫폼에 올라올 것으로 예상됩니다.

These points were made, keeping in mind where the market currently is. Armstrong indicated he believes we are moving from an investment phase in crypto, to a utility phase. A utility phase is a point in time where consumers begin actually using platforms and services for their intended purposes.
He describes the state of the internet as being in its third phase.

• Web 1.0 – 정보 게시
• Web 2.0 – 상호작용 / 메신저
• Web 3.0 – 가치 이전

With the internet transitioning into this 3.0 era, Armstrong believes that most any charity, start-up, fund, or Dapps will benefit through the issuance of a security token. Coinbase plans to facilitate this progression.

Keystone Capital

It is no secret that Coinbase will eventually offer security tokens. Beyond simply voicing this decision, the wheels were already set in motion earlier this year. Announced in June, Coinbase acquired securities broker/dealer Keystone Capital.
By acquiring an existing securities dealer, Coinbase immediately inherits a wealth of experience in the sector. This will be crucial in the coming months/years as Coinbase looks to work with the SEC and eventually offer tokenized securities itself.

Coinbase

Based out of Seattle, Coinbase was founded in 2012. Since its inception, it has gone on to become an industry leader. This has been made possible through a constant improvement of their platform and expansion of services offered. We have seen growth from a simple wallet to a self-described tech company offering index funds, custodial services, and more.

Closing out his time at Disrupt, Armstrong did not rule out a future where Coinbase goes public. He indicated that it would be very ‘on-mission’ if they were to do so via blockchain. Coinbase as a tokenized security – although years away (if ever), is a tantalizing idea.
