Previous report

Our business is exposed to risks inherent in digital-asset markets, multi-jurisdiction financial regulation, reliance on a limited number of liquidity providers and other third-party partners, and the security and resilience of our technology and safeguarding practices. Many of the risks below are interrelated—market downturns or regulatory actions can reduce trading volumes and liquidity, affect banking access, and increase compliance costs—which, individually or in the aggregate, could materially harm our revenue, liquidity, and results of operations. (Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Results of Operations — Digital Asset Segment” and “Notes — Concentrations of Risk.”)

Previous report

Our total revenue is substantially dependent on the volume of digital asset transactions conducted on our platform, which is in turn significantly affected by the prices of digital assets. If such prices or volumes decline, our business, operating results, and financial condition would be adversely affected, and the price of our common stock could decline.

Previous report

We generate a large portion of our total revenue from transaction fees on our platform in connection with the purchase, sale, and trading of digital assets by our users. The transaction price, represented by the trading fee, varies depending on the value of the transaction and/or the user’s transaction volume processed over the previous thirty-day period. Instant orders also incur a convenience fee that is typically calculated at a rate around 50 basis points above the market price. Declines in the volume of digital asset transactions, the price of digital assets, or market liquidity for digital assets generally may result in lower total revenue to us.

Previous report

The price of digital assets and associated demand for buying, selling, and trading digital assets have historically been subject to significant volatility. For instance, in 2017, the value of certain digital assets, including bitcoin, experienced steep increases in value. Value increases of certain digital assets, including bitcoin, from 2016 to 2017, and then again in 2021, were followed by a steep decline in 2018 and again in 2022. While the value of digital assets, including bitcoin, increased significantly in 2024, if the value of digital assets and transaction volume do not continue to increase or they experience a decline in the future, our ability to generate revenue may suffer, and user demand for our products and services may decline. These factors could adversely affect our business, operating results, and financial condition and cause the price of our common stock to decline. The price and trading volume of any digital asset are subject to significant uncertainty and volatility, depending on several factors, including:

Previous report

There is no assurance that any supported digital asset will maintain its value or that there will be meaningful levels of trading activities. If the price of digital assets or the demand for trading digital assets declines, our business, operating results, and financial condition would be adversely affected, and the price of our common stock could decline.

Previous report

A significant amount of the trading volume on our platform is derived from a relatively small number of institutional market makers, and the loss of these market makers, or a reduction in their trading volume, could have an adverse effect on our business, operating results, and financial condition.

Previous report

A relatively small number of institutional market makers have historically accounted for around half of the total trading volume on our platform. We expect significant trading volume and net revenue attributable to these market makers for the foreseeable future. As a result, while our business is not materially dependent on any single user, a loss of these market makers, or a reduction in their trading volume, and our inability to replace them, could have an adverse effect on our business, operating results, and financial conditions.

Previous report

Our operating expenses may increase in the future, and absent corresponding revenues, we may not be able to achieve profitability or positive cash flow from operations, which may cause our business, operating results, and financial condition to be adversely impacted.

Previous report

Our operating expenses may increase in the future as we continue to attract and retain talent, expand our sales and marketing efforts, develop additional products and services, expand our international business, and incur regulatory or compliance expenses. While we consistently evaluate opportunities to drive efficiency, we cannot guarantee that these efforts will be successful. Our operations may prove more expensive than we currently anticipate, and we may not succeed in increasing our net revenue sufficiently to offset these higher expenses. Our revenue growth may be further impacted by reduced demand for our offerings, increased competition, adverse macroeconomic conditions, a decrease in the growth or size of the digital asset industry, regulatory uncertainty or scrutiny, or changes that impact our ability to offer certain products or services, any failure to capitalize on growth opportunities, or failure of new products and services we develop to gain traction in the market. We cannot be certain that we will be able to achieve profitability or achieve positive operating cash flow in any period. If we are unable to effectively manage these risks and difficulties as we encounter them, our business, operating results, and financial condition may suffer.

Previous report

Our performance is subject to general economic conditions and their effects on the digital asset markets and our users. The United States and other key international economies have periodically experienced cyclical downturns in which economic activity declined, resulting in lower consumption rates, restricted credit, reduced profitability, weaknesses in financial markets, bankruptcies, and overall heightened economic uncertainty. Adverse general economic conditions have impacted digital assets, although the extent to which remains uncertain and dependent on a variety of factors, including market adoption of digital assets, global trends in the digital asset industry, central bank monetary policies, instability in the global banking system, and other events beyond our control. Geopolitical developments, such as trade wars and foreign exchange limitations, can also increase the severity and levels of unpredictability globally and increase the volatility of global financial and digital asset markets. For example, capital and credit markets have experienced extreme volatility and disruptions in the past, leading to significant declines in the value of digital assets. To the extent general economic conditions and digital assets markets materially deteriorate or the current decline continues for a prolonged period, our ability to generate revenue and to attract and retain users could suffer, and our business, operating results, and financial condition could be adversely affected. Moreover, even if general economic conditions improve, there is no guarantee that the digital asset industry will similarly improve.

Previous report

Further, in 2022, several blockchain protocols and digital asset financial firms, and in particular protocols and firms involving high levels of financial leverage, such as high-yield lending products or derivatives trading, suffered from insolvency and liquidity crises, including FTX, Celsius Networks, Voyager, and Three Arrows Capital. Some of these failures are alleged to have been held to be the result of fraudulent activity by insiders, including misappropriation of user funds, illicit activity, and failures in internal controls. In connection with these incidents, concerns were raised about the potential for a market condition where the failure of one company leads to the financial distress of other companies. If such a market condition were to become widespread in the digital asset industry, we could suffer from increased counterparty risk, including defaults or bankruptcies of major users or counterparties, which could lead to significantly reduced activity on our platform and fewer available digital asset market opportunities in general. Further, forced selling of digital assets by distressed companies could lead to lower digital asset prices and may lead to a reduction in our revenue. To the extent that conditions in the general economic and digital asset markets were to materially deteriorate, our ability to attract and retain users may suffer.

Previous report

Actual events involving limited liquidity, defaults, non-performance, or other adverse developments that affect financial institutions, transactional counterparties, or other companies in the financial services industry, or the financial services industry generally, or concerns or rumors regarding such events or other similar risks, have in the past and may in the future lead to market-wide liquidity problems. For example, in March 2023, Silvergate Capital Corp. announced it would wind down operations and liquidate Silvergate Bank. Soon after, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) was appointed as receiver for Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank. As a result of these developments and related issues with other financial institutions, the prices of fiat-backed stablecoins were temporarily impacted and may be similarly impacted again in the future. Instability in the global banking system could have negative ramifications, such as additional market-wide liquidity problems or impacted access to deposits and investments for users of affected banks and certain banking partners. Our business, operating results, and financial condition could be adversely affected as a result.

Previous report

Revenue generated and expenses incurred from our international operations are often denominated in the currencies of the local countries. Accordingly, changes in the value of foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar can affect our operating results reflected in our U.S. dollar-denominated financial statements. Our financial results are also subject to changes in exchange rates that impact the settlement of transactions in non-functional currencies. As a result, it could be more difficult to detect underlying trends in our business and operating results. To the extent that fluctuations in currency exchange rates cause our operating results to differ from expectations of investors, the market price of our common stock could be adversely impacted. From time to time, we may engage in currency hedging activities to limit the risk of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. To the extent we use hedging instruments to hedge exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, the use of such hedging instruments may not offset any or more than a portion of the adverse financial effects of unfavorable movements in foreign exchange rates over the limited time the hedges are in place, and may introduce additional risks if we are unable to structure effective hedges with such instruments.

Previous report

Our failure to safeguard and manage our and our users’ fiat currencies and digital assets could adversely impact our business, operating results, and financial condition.

Previous report

We hold fiat currencies and safeguard digital assets on behalf of our users. Our expanding number of regulated entities will rely on an increasing number of hot, MPC, and cold wallets, as well as an increasing number of omnibus bank accounts, which heightens the complexity of our operations, including fiat and blockchain reconciliations and the maintenance of our internal ledger and related accounting procedures. Subcustodial arrangements among our various regulated entities add to the operational complexity of our international operations. Delays, errors, or failures in these operations could result in investigations, regulatory and enforcement actions, or litigation, and adversely impact our reputation, business, operating results, and financial condition.

Previous report

Our ability to manage and accurately safeguard our users’ assets requires a high level of internal control. As our business continues to grow and we expand our product and service offerings, we must continue to strengthen our associated internal controls and ensure that our third-party service providers do the same. Our success and the success of our offerings require significant public confidence in our ability to properly manage users’ balances and handle large and growing transaction volumes and amounts of user funds. Any failure by us to maintain the necessary controls or to manage user digital assets and funds appropriately and in compliance with applicable regulatory requirements could result in reputational harm or significant financial losses, lead users to discontinue or reduce their use of our products, and result in significant penalties and fines and additional restrictions, which could adversely impact our business, operating results, and financial condition.

Previous report

We deposit, transfer, and custody user cash and digital assets in multiple jurisdictions. In each instance, we are required to safeguard users’ assets using bank-level security standards applicable to our hot and cold wallets and storage systems, as well as our financial management systems related to such custodial functions. In general, most digital assets on our platform are held in cold storage. Our security technology is designed to prevent, detect, and mitigate inappropriate access to our systems by internal or external threats. We believe we have developed and maintained administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to comply with applicable legal requirements and industry standards. However, it is nevertheless possible that hackers, employees, service providers, or others acting contrary to our policies could circumvent these safeguards to improperly access our systems or documents, or the systems or documents of our business partners, agents, or service providers, and improperly access, obtain, or misuse user digital assets and funds. The methods used to obtain unauthorized access, disable, or degrade service or sabotage systems are also constantly changing and evolving, and may be difficult to anticipate or detect for long periods of time.

Previous report

We also hold fiat currency and digital assets for administrative and operating purposes. We segregate such assets from our users’ assets by maintaining an internal ledger that distinguishes between customer assets, company assets, and those of affiliates or others. We perform monthly reconciliations between this ledger and on-chain balances, maintain an audit trail of all ledgers and trading activity. Despite these steps we take to segregate such assets from our user assets, any failure to properly safeguard, manage, or account for these funds could result in financial losses, regulatory scrutiny, reputational harm, or legal liability.

Previous report

The loss or destruction of a private key required to access our or our users’ digital assets may be irreversible. If we are unable to access our private keys or if we experience a hack or other data loss relating to the digital assets that we hold on behalf of users, our users may be unable to access their digital assets, which could harm user trust in us and our products and services and cause regulatory scrutiny.

Previous report

To own, transfer, and use a digital asset on an underlying blockchain network, a person must have a private and public key pair associated with a blockchain address, commonly referred to as a “wallet.” Digital assets are generally controllable only by the possessor of the unique private key relating to the wallet in which the digital assets are held. To the extent that any of the private keys or other necessary credentials relating to our wallets containing digital assets held for our own account or for our users are lost, destroyed, or otherwise compromised or unavailable, and no backup of the private key is accessible, we will be unable to access the digital assets held in the related wallet. Any loss of private keys or other credentials relating to, or hack or other compromise of, digital wallets used to store our users’ digital assets could adversely affect our users’ ability to access or sell their digital assets, require us to reimburse our users for their losses, and subject us to significant financial losses in addition to losing user trust in us and our products and services. As such, any loss of private keys or other digital wallet credentials due to a hack, employee or service provider misconduct or error, or other compromise by third parties could negatively impact our brand and reputation, result in significant losses, and adversely impact our business.

Previous report

Cyberattacks and security breaches—whether affecting our platform, our employees, our users, or third parties— could adversely impact our brand and reputation, as well as our business, operating results, and financial condition.

Previous report

Our business involves the collecting, storing, transmitting, and processing of confidential information such as user, employee, service provider, and other personal data, and information required to access user assets. We have built our reputation on the premise that our platform offers users a secure way to purchase, store, and transact in digital assets. As a result, any actual or perceived security breach affecting us or our third-party partners may:

Previous report

An increasing number of organizations, including large merchants, businesses, technology companies, financial institutions, and government institutions, have disclosed breaches of their information security systems and networks, some of which have involved sophisticated and highly targeted attacks on their third-party service providers’ websites, mobile applications, and infrastructure. Any actual or perceived breach or cybersecurity attack directed at other financial institutions or digital asset companies, whether or not we are directly impacted, could lead to a general loss of user confidence in the digital asset industry or in the use of technology to conduct financial transactions, which could negatively impact us and market perception of the effectiveness of our security measures and technology infrastructure.

Previous report

Attacks upon systems and networks across a variety of industries, including the digital asset industry, are increasing in their frequency, persistence, and sophistication, and, in many cases, are being conducted by sophisticated, well-funded, and organized groups and individuals, which include state actors. The techniques used to obtain unauthorized, improper, or illegal access to systems and information (including users’ personal data and digital assets), disable or degrade services, or sabotage systems are constantly evolving, may be difficult to detect quickly, and often are not recognized or detected until after they have been launched against a target. Such threats may see their frequency increased and effectiveness enhanced using artificial intelligence (“AI”). Further, these risks may be heightened in connection with ongoing global conflicts such as Russia’s invasion of Ukraine or the Israel-Hamas conflict. These attacks may occur on our systems and networks or those of our third-party service providers or partners. Certain types of cyberattacks could harm us even if our systems and networks remain undisturbed. Attacks may be designed to exploit operational vulnerabilities or other weaknesses in our processes or procedures, to deceive employees and service providers into releasing control of our systems or networks, or to introduce computer viruses and malware into our systems or networks with the intent of compromising confidential or proprietary data. Additionally, certain threats are designed to remain dormant or undetectable until launched against a target, and we may not be able to implement adequate preventative measures.

Previous report

Although we have not experienced a direct hack and we have developed systems and processes designed to protect the data we manage, prevent data loss and other security breaches, effectively respond to known and potential risks, and expend significant resources to bolster these protections, there can be no assurance that these security measures will provide absolute security or prevent breaches or attacks. We may, from time to time, experience future breaches of our security measures. These breaches may be due to human error, malfeasance, insider threats, system errors, system vulnerabilities and other irregularities. Unauthorized parties have attempted, and we expect that they will continue to attempt, to gain access to our systems and networks, as well as those of our users, partners, and third-party service providers, through various means, including hacking, social engineering, phishing, ransomware, denial-of-service attacks, and attempting to fraudulently induce individuals (including employees, service providers, and our users) into disclosing usernames, passwords, payment card information, and other sensitive information, which may in turn be used to access our information technology systems and users’ digital assets. Threats can come from a variety of sources, such as criminal hackers, hacktivists, state-sponsored intrusions, industrial espionage, and insiders. Certain threat actors may be supported by significant financial and technological resources, making them even more sophisticated and difficult to detect. We may also acquire other companies that expose us to unexpected security risks or increase costs to improve the security posture of the acquired company. Further, there has been an increase in such threat actor activities because of the increased prevalence of hybrid and remote working arrangements in recent years. As a result, our costs and the resources we devote to protecting against these advanced threats and their consequences may continue to increase over time. Any perceived or actual security breach—whether affecting our platform, our users, or third parties—may expose us to legal risk and potential liability, including governmental or regulatory investigations and class action litigation.

Previous report

While we generally perform cybersecurity diligence on our key third-party service providers, we do not control our third-party service providers, and our ability to monitor their cybersecurity measures is limited. Some of our third-party service providers may store or have access to our data and may not have effective controls, processes, or practices to protect our information from data breaches or other cybersecurity incidents. A vulnerability in a third-party service provider’s software or systems, a failure of our third-party service providers’ safeguards, policies, or procedures, or a breach of a third-party service provider’s software or systems could result in the compromise of confidentiality, integrity, or availability of our systems or the data housed in our third-party solutions. Due to applicable laws and regulations or contractual obligations, we may be held responsible for data breaches or other cybersecurity incidents attributed to our service providers as they relate to the information we share with them. Such incidents could expose us to significant financial and legal liabilities, including regulatory fines, penalties, litigation, and remediation costs.

Previous report

Although we maintain insurance coverage, it may be insufficient to protect us against all losses and costs stemming from security breaches, cyberattacks, other types of unlawful activity, or resulting disruptions, data theft, and loss from such events. We cannot be certain that our insurance coverage will continue to be available to us on economically reasonable terms, if at all, or that any insurer will not deny coverage as to any future claims. Outages and disruptions of our platform, including any caused by cyberattacks, may harm our reputation and our business, operating results, and financial condition.

Previous report

Custody services, and any blockchain technology on which they rely, may be the target of cyberattacks or may contain exploitable flaws in their underlying code, which may result in security breaches and the loss or theft of digital assets that are held or deposited.

Previous report

Custody services, their structural foundation, and the software applications and other interfaces or applications upon which they rely (including blockchain technology) are based on relatively new technologies, and there can be no assurances that custody services are or will be fully secure, which may result in losses of users’ digital assets and an unwillingness of market participants to access, adopt, and utilize digital assets or the custody services. Examples of the above include, but are not limited to:

Previous report

While we will take steps to ensure security and protection against such incidents, no assurance can be given that our custody services are or will be fully secure and protected from attack, and any failure in this regard could result in enforcement actions, litigation, significant costs being incurred, fines, and other penalties, thereby adversely affecting our reputation, business, operating results, and financial condition. The impact of such attacks could also negatively impact the utilization of digital assets and potentially result in a decline in the broader market price of the affected digital assets.

Previous report

Any significant disruption to our products and services, information technology systems, or the blockchain networks we support could result in a loss of users or funds and adversely impact our brand and reputation, as well as our business, operating results, and financial condition.

Previous report

Our reputation and ability to attract and retain users and grow our business depend on our ability to operate our service at high levels of reliability, scalability, and performance, including the ability to process and monitor a large number of transactions that occur at high volume and frequencies across multiple systems daily. Our digital asset exchanges and the ability of our users to trade digital assets are dependent on our ability to access the blockchain networks underlying the supported digital assets, for which access is dependent on our systems’ ability to access the internet. Further, the successful and continued operations of such blockchain networks will depend on a network of computers, miners, or validators, and their continued operations, all of which may be impacted by service interruptions.

Previous report

Our systems, the systems of our third-party service providers and partners, and certain digital asset and blockchain networks have experienced, from time to time, and may experience in the future, service interruptions or degradation. This can be due to hardware and software bugs, defects, or malfunctions, distributed denial-of-service and other cyberattacks, insider threats, break-ins, sabotage, human error, vandalism, earthquakes, hurricanes, floods, fires, and other natural disasters, power losses, disruptions in telecommunications services, fraud, military or political conflicts, terrorist attacks, computer viruses or other malware, or other events. In addition, extraordinary trading volumes or site usage could cause our computer systems to operate at an unacceptably slow speed or even fail. Some of our systems, including systems of companies we have acquired, or the systems of our third-party service providers and partners, are not fully redundant, and our or their disaster recovery planning may not be sufficient for all possible outcomes or events.

Previous report

If any of our systems or networks, or those of our third-party service providers, are disrupted for any reason, as has happened in the past, our products and services may be interrupted or even fail, potentially resulting in unanticipated disruptions, slower response times and delays in our users’ trade execution and processing, failed settlement of trades, delays in withdrawing stakes assets, incomplete or inaccurate accounting, recording, or processing of trades, unauthorized trades, loss of user information, increased demand on limited user support resources, user claims, complaints with regulatory organizations, lawsuits, or enforcement actions. A prolonged interruption in the availability or reduction in the availability, speed, or functionality of our products and services could harm our operations, including our exchange and custody businesses. Significant or persistent interruptions in our services could cause current or potential users or partners to believe that our systems are unreliable, leading them to switch to our competitors or to avoid or reduce the use of our products and services, and could permanently harm our reputation. Moreover, to the extent that any system failure or similar event results in damage to our users or their business partners, these users or partners could seek significant compensation or contractual penalties from us for their losses, and those claims, even if unsuccessful, would likely be time-consuming and costly for us to address. Problems with the reliability or security of our systems would harm our reputation, and the cost of remedying these problems could negatively affect our business, operating results, and financial condition.

Previous report

Our data processing systems, or other operating systems and facilities, and those of our third-party service providers, may stop operating properly or become disabled or damaged because of a number of factors, including events that are wholly or partially beyond our and our third-party service providers’ control. While we have business continuity, disaster recovery and other policies and procedures designed to prevent or limit the effect of the failure, interruption, or security breach of our information systems, there can be no assurance that any such failures, interruptions or security breaches will not occur or, if they do occur, that they will be adequately covered or addressed by such policies and procedures. Furthermore, if such failures, interruptions, or security breaches are not detected immediately, their effect could be compounded. Our risk and exposure to these matters remain heightened because of the evolving nature of these threats and our use of third-party service providers with access to our systems and data.

Previous report

Because we are a regulated financial institution in certain jurisdictions, interruptions may result in regulatory scrutiny, and significant or persistent interruptions could lead to significant fines and penalties, and mandatory and costly changes to our business practices, and ultimately could cause us to lose existing licenses or banking relationships that we need to operate or prevent or delay us from obtaining additional licenses that may be required for our business.

Previous report

Our platform may be exploited to facilitate illegal activity such as fraud, money laundering, terrorist financing, proliferation financing, tax evasion, and scams. If any of our users use our platform to further such illegal activities, our business could be adversely affected.

Previous report

Our platform may be exploited to facilitate illegal activity, including fraud, money laundering, terrorist financing, proliferation financing, tax evasion, and scams. The use of our platform for illegal or improper purposes could subject us to claims, individual and class action lawsuits, government and regulatory investigations, prosecutions, enforcement actions, inquiries, or requests that could result in liability and reputational harm for us. Moreover, certain activities that may be legal in one jurisdiction may be illegal in another jurisdiction, and certain activities that are at one time legal may in the future be deemed illegal in the same jurisdiction. As a result, there is significant uncertainty and cost associated with detecting and monitoring transactions for compliance with local laws. If a user is found responsible for intentionally or inadvertently violating the laws in any jurisdiction, we may be subject to governmental inquiries, enforcement actions, or prosecution, or otherwise held secondarily liable for aiding or facilitating such activities. Changes in law have also increased the penalties for money transmitters for certain illegal activities, and government authorities may consider increased or additional penalties from time to time. Owners of intellectual property rights or government authorities may seek to bring legal action against money transmitters, including us, for involvement in the sale of infringing or allegedly infringing items. Any threatened or resulting claims could result in reputational harm, and any resulting liabilities, loss of transaction volume, or increased costs could harm our business.

Previous report

Moreover, while fiat currencies can be used to facilitate illegal activities, digital assets are relatively new and, in many jurisdictions, may be lightly regulated or largely unregulated. Many types of digital assets have characteristics, such as the speed with which digital currency transactions can be conducted, the ability to conduct transactions without the involvement of regulated intermediaries, the ability to engage in transactions across multiple jurisdictions, the irreversible nature of certain digital asset transactions, and encryption technology that anonymizes these transactions, that make digital assets susceptible to use in illegal activity. U.S. federal and state and foreign regulatory authorities and law enforcement agencies, such as the Department of Justice, SEC, Commodity Futures Trading Commission (the “CFTC”), the FTC, or the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”), and various state securities and financial regulators have taken and continue to take legal action against persons and entities alleged to be engaged in fraudulent schemes or other illicit activity involving digital assets. We also support digital assets that incorporate privacy-enhancing features and may, from time to time, support additional digital assets with similar functionalities. These privacy-enhancing digital assets obscure the identities of sender and receiver and may prevent law enforcement officials from tracing the source of funds on the blockchain. Facilitating transactions in these digital assets may cause us to be at increased risk of liability arising out of anti-money laundering (“AML”) and economic sanctions laws and regulations.

Previous report

While we believe that our risk management and compliance framework is designed to detect significant illicit activities conducted by our potential or existing users, we cannot ensure that we will be able to detect all illegal activity on our platform. Illegal activity, the appearance of illegal activity, or government inquiries into the potential for illegal activity may have an adverse impact on our business, operating results, and financial condition. Further, any efforts to identify and remedy such illegal or fraudulent activity may be costly, time-consuming, and ultimately may not be successful. If any of our users use our platform to further such illegal activities, our business and reputation could be materially and adversely affected.
