Payments company Square, Inc. (NYSE:SQ) on Thursday released its second-quarter earnings. According to the update, the company’s crypto-friendly Cash App made $125 million in revenue from bitcoin this quarter, nearly doubling the revenue of the preceding quarter. The increase led to a $2 million gross profit from bitcoin alone, and the massive leap in sales is attributed to increased trading volume in bitcoin, largely due to the recent pump in price. For the last five quarters, Square’s bitcoin sales have been increasing and accelerating, in Q1, 2019, registering a record-high of $65.5 million in revenue and $832,000 in profit. “We love you, Bitcoin,” Jack Dorsey, head of Square and Twitter CEO, openly expressed in the earnings call to discuss the recent performance.
