Overall revenue in the second quarter of 2024 was $21.0 million, compared to $13.4 million in Q3 2023 (+57%), Â driven by higher transaction volumes on the Bitcoin Portal. Revenue from the Company's Online segment grew to $15.1 million in Q3 2024 from $4.9 million last year, an improvement of 209%. On a year-to date basis, revenue increased to $60.5 million, compared to $40.9 million in the first nine months of 2023 (+48%). Revenue from the Online segment grew to $41.4 million for the nine-month period from $16.6 million last year, marking growth of 148% YoY.
"We are proud of the growth of the Bitcoin Portal," said Adam O'Brien, founder and CEO of Bitcoin Well. "We have been working hard to create the best bitcoin platform which empowers our customers to take and use bitcoin in self custody. Our growth is a symbol that we have achieved product market fit. Now we are focused on exponential growth by tapping into the toughest and most resilient community in the world; the bitcoin community."
Overall gross profit declined to $0.9 million in Q3 2024 from $1.1 million last year (-18%) and for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 declined to $2.8 million from $3.4 million last year (-19%). The decline is primarily driven by a change in sales mix, with lower margin online transactions now making up a larger proportion relative to the high margin Bitcoin ATM sales. The Company sees this as a necessary stepping stone to successfully transition the business into a highly scalable online bitcoin platform.
The Company is experiencing a significant rate of growth on its Bitcoin Portal, which has now exceeded 27,000 unique signups as at November 4, 2024. This represents user growth of 23% from June 30, 2024 and 127% from December 31, 2023.
In addition, the Company's initiatives to increase the gross profit on the Bitcoin Portal have been successful. Gross profit from the Bitcoin Portal was $0.2 million for the 3-months ended September 30, 2024 (Q3 2023: $15 thousand, +1,198%) and $0.5 million for the 9-months ended September 30, 2024 (2023: $0.3 million, +86%).
Further, gross margin has improved to 1.3% in Q3 2024 from just 0.3% in the same quarter last year (+313% improvement), and these initiatives continue. This includes building products such as Lite Accounts and Cash Vouchers, and in the future, the ability to buy gift cards to popular merchants and stores with bitcoin.
Adjusted EBITDA declined to negative $0.6 million in Q3 2024 from negative $0.1 million in Q3 2023 and to negative $1.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 from negative $0.6 million last year. These declines were primarily due to higher marketing expenses and professional fees.
Year-to-date in 2024, the Company has made significant investments in marketing and advertising initiatives to promote usage of the Bitcoin Portal. Marketing and advertising expenses in Q3 2024 were $0.5 million, reflecting a $0.3 million increase from Q3 2023 (nine months ended September 30, 2024 - increased to $0.9 million from $0.3 million last year). The higher professional fees in 2024 was due to non-recurring legal fees incurred to vigorously litigate against Rapid Cash ATM Ltd. due to their alleged breach of contract in October 2023.
This news release should be read in concert with the full disclosure documents. The Bitcoin W ell condensed consolidated interim financial statements and MD&A for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 will be available on the Bitcoin Well website ( www.bitcoinwell.com ), via SEDAR+ ( www.sedarplus.ca ) or can be requested from the Company.
The Company uses certain terms in this news release, such as ‘Adjusted EBITDA' and ‘Adjusted Cash Flow', which do not have a standardized or prescribed meaning under International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), and accordingly, these measurements may not be comparable with the calculation of similar measurements used by other companies.

Troy Minerals Inc. ("Troy" or the "Company") (CSE:TROY)(OTCQB:TROYF)(FSE:VJ3) is pleased to announce a significant milestone in its ongoing development of the Tsagaan Zalaa Silica Project in Mongolia. With the next phase of drilling now underway, the Company aims to complete the minimum 1,000 meters cumulative drill program, the required threshold for its mining license submission. It should be noted that the silica mineralization at Tsagaan Zalaa is either outcropping or sub-outcropping, resulting is relatively shallow drilling campaigns. The Company expects to complete drilling before year-end, setting the stage for Troy's mining license submission
Located strategically near the Mongolian-Chinese border, the Tsagaan Zalaa Silica Project continues to present robust opportunities for growth in the silica sector, driven by rising demand from green technology and other high-tech industries. The Company remains focused on delivering the necessary operational milestones, aligning with its commitment to achieving first production in the coming year.
"This additional drilling is a critical step in advancing Tsagaan Zalaa to the production stage," said Rana Vig, President and CEO of Troy Minerals. "By meeting the requirements for our mining license, we will continue progressing towards our goal of production in 2025, ultimately generating substantial value for our stakeholders and contributing to the global supply of high-purity silica for green technologies."
Project Development Milestones:
Drilling Completion: The completion of the 1,000 meters drill program is expected to be reached by the end of 2024, with this phase concluding the final project technical geological studies essential for license submission.
Environmental Studies Completed: Project environmental field studies, inclusive of archaeological and paleontological studies have successfully been completed in October 2024. Thus, final environmental reports are in progress.
Mining License Application: Completion of this targeted drilling in association with already completed trenching, sampling and geological mapping, will facilitate the mining license application, anticipated to be submitted promptly, allowing Troy to transition into the production stage within 2025.
Strategic Project Positioning: The Tsagaan Zalaa project's proximity to a Japanese-operated silica mine underscores its favorable location to supply Asia's burgeoning high-purity silica market.
With these advancements, Troy Minerals reaffirms its commitment to establish itself as a leading supplier in the silica industry, serving the needs of rapidly growing green energy and advanced technology sectors. The Company's operational focus on Tsagaan Zalaa strengthens its strategic objective to establish itself as a supplier of high-purity silica and target production by H2 2025.
