Full story
It’s time for quarterly results!
ICYMI, yesterday we mentioned that Coinbase’s earnings report was about to be released; and it turns out they crushed it in Q2.
(Meanwhile, the US government is $37 trillion in debt – that’s a T for “trillion” people).
Another company whose quarterly results were released yesterday was Block Inc., founded by Jack Dorsey.
They also crushed it, reporting a total of $5.5 billion in net income in the second quarter, $2.4 billion of which came from Bitcoin.
Block’s ‘Cash App’ uses the BTC Lightning Network to let users make small and quick payments between each other, in crypto.
They charge a small fee for each transaction, just like American Express charges a small fee for using their credit cards.
Turns out many small fees can turn into:
-
a lot of people included in Web3.
-
Billions of dollars (or $2.4 billion in the quarter to be exact).
Two thumbs up, we’d love to see it!
