Bitcoin’s Bull Run Sends Square’s Revenue Flying Through Roof

Jack Dorsey’s payments solution company, Square (NYSE: SQ), is currently making a killing in the Bitcoin (BTC) rally as a result of its affiliation with the cryptocurrency. This surge is evident in its stock performance and it has just released its Q3 investors’ letter.

The company has registered a whopping $1.3 billion in revenue in its third-quarter thanks to its Bitcoin sales. This report is coming at a time when the company just clocked $3.03 billion in net revenue and about $800 million in profits.

A researcher at Messari, Ryan Watkins, has sketched out a comparison of the company’s performance from last year to the last quarter. He mentions that Square is setting a good example for other top financial institutions to follow and begin offering BTC and cryptocurrency services to their customers. The company attributed the massive spike in BTC volume to its Bitcoin sales.

Also, worth mentioning is that the company currently holds about $50 million worth of Bitcoin in a purchase last month to show its dedication to the cryptocurrency.

Meanwhile, the company made $875 million from Bitcoin sales in Q1 2020 alone $306 million in the preceding quarter.

Square pulled in $32 million in profits from its BTC sales in Q3, which represented 4% of the company’s net profits, and $17 million in Q2 2020, which represented a measly 2.84% of the total profits. Overall, the company reached a revenue of $3.03 billion in the third quarter as opposed to $1.92 billion in the second quarter and $1.3 billion in the first quarter.
