Quick Take

  • Jack Dorsey’s Block saw nearly $2 billion in bitcoin revenue, accounting for nearly a third of its total revenues.
  • The firm’s stock, ticker XYZ, was down in after market hours after missing some key expectations.
Block, Inc. (ticker XYZ), Jack Dorsey’s fintech and digital-payments giant with a significant BTC footprint, reported third-quarter earnings of $461.5 million on revenue of $6.11 billion in the period, according to its 10-Q filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
“Block grew gross profit 18% year over year in the third quarter, with 24% year-over-year growth in Cash App and 9% year-over-year growth in Square,” Dorsey wrote in a shareholder letter.
Shares of XYZ were down 3.7% to $70.94 at market close and down 9.6% to $64.10 after hours, according to The Block’s price page and the Wall Street Journal.
I hear a lot of good things coming from square, like allowing bitcoin payments through their point-of-sale terminals. This is a positive for those looking stack bitcoin by providing goods or services.

i can't square (pun intended 😁) these big numbers with how rarely I see people in the real world using Bitcoin.
Assuming this is from Blocks comission of transactions, which must be small margin. Is it?
Go block go!
