However, the enthusiasm of bitcoin bullies may be inhibited.
There are some key details in the two messages that may leave investors stunned. Goldman Sachs is not buying and selling real Bitcoin. According to a person familiar with the matter, the company is working hard to explore long-term disclosure of encrypted transactions and plans to start small-scale deals by providing a limited number of derivatives.
This reminds people that many traditional financial institutions are subject to a long list of rules of the regulatory agencies and there is still a long way to go before they figure out how to handle cryptocurrency directly.
At the same time, Square's first disclosure of Bitcoin’s financial contribution to its finances is not as optimistic as it is about bullish Bitcoin. Although the $34.1 million in revenue comes from the sale of Bitcoin to its Cash App users, the company spent $33.9 million to purchase the bitcoins, which means the company only made about $200,000.
Despite this, some people say that the company’s enthusiasm for cryptocurrency and blockchain technology is a sign of progress in emerging industries.
