Block contains more than a billion dollars in BTC
In the second quarter, Block Inc. by Jack Dorsey increased its Bitcoin Holdings by 108 BTC, adding around $ 12.6 million Bitcoin at current prices. This last purchase increases the total Bitcoin Block at 8,692 BTC, now estimated at more than $ 1 billion.
Block is now classified as the 13th largest public company holding Bitcoin, joining the growing trend in the adoption of the Bitcoin treasure following the microstrategy game book.
T2 benefits beat market expectations
Block recently published a solid report on profits in the second quarter with $ 6.05 billion in total income, and gross profit increasing from $ 2.2% to $ 2.54 billion. In particular, on the total block revenues, $ 2.14 billion came from Bitcoin sales via cash application, which gained gross profit of $ 66 million.
The company has outlined the estimates of Wall Street and increased its full -year profile forecasts to 10.17 billion dollars, highlighting its high growth trajectory.
Make bitcoin “daily money”
Growth was motivated by Cash App’s loan services, and stable payment activity via the Carré merchant network.
The company has recently taken several measures to integrate Bitcoin more deeply into its ecosystem:
- Increase in bitcoin withdrawal limits on cash application
- Allowed square sellers to accept BTC payments
- To launch a proto-Mine initiative next week aimed at “democratizing the mining ecosystem”
- Introduced Bitkey, a self-toilet portfolio product
While Block recorded an unrealized loss of $ 212 million on its Bitcoin holders due to recent price reductions, its long -term objective remains on the passable BTC in daily life.
On July 23, Block joined the S&P 500 index, which led to a 7% increase in the course of its action. This step reflects the growing influence of the company in the technological and financial sectors.
The CFO vision for the future of Bitcoin
In a recent interview with CNBC, Block’s financial director Amrita Ahuja, said “We think Bitcoin can be the open protocol that feeds the internet” and thinks that it can “move at the internet speed”. While many see Bitcoin as a simple “digital gold”, she says that she has the opportunity to go into currencies.
With 8 million users of species’ application exchanging Bitcoin, a BTC treasure of $ 1 billion and new initiatives aimed at accessibility, block is positioned at the forefront of the adoption of Bitcoin.
Block opens the way to make a practical part of daily life thanks to innovation and wider accessibility.
