ÂÂ The Company's overall revenue in the fourth quarter of 2024 showed a substantial 121% increase, reaching $30.1 million compared to $13.6 million in Q4 2023. This growth was primarily driven by increased transaction volumes on the Bitcoin Portal, including from Bitcoin Well Infinite - which provides large bitcoin transactions to high net worth individuals. Â
ÂÂ The Company also debuted Bitcoin Well Infinite in the USA through a strategic partnership in Q4. Volume in the USA through the first couple months exceeded $3,000,000 and is expected to grow in Q1 2025. Â Both the Bitcoin Portal and Bitcoin Well Infinite have a lower gross profit margin than the Bitcoin ATMs, but are more scalable and cost less to expand making them the optimal growth business unit. Â
ÂÂ "I am happy to report these revenue numbers!" said Bitcoin Well Founder and CEO Adam O'Brien, "I am more certain of the Bitcoin Portal's product-market fit than ever before. The addition of Bitcoin Well Infinite offering large bitcoin transactions directly to self custody looks like a recipe for success and we are excited to continue growing this service line. I'm confident our increased scale will outpace the costs of growth soon." Â
ÂÂ Gross profit decreased to $1.2 million in Q4 2024 from $1.4 million last year due to a lower overall gross margin. This was primarily caused by a shift in sales mix, with lower margin online transactions now representing a larger share compared to high margin Bitcoin ATM sales. The Company views this shift as a necessary step in the successful transition to a highly scalable online bitcoin platform. Â
ÂÂ During Q4 2024, the Company's online segment's gross margin increased to 1.7%, from 1.3% in Q4 2023, +30% improvement Â
