Gemini's Q1 revenue increased by 42%, with after-hours stock price surging up to 30%
Odaily reported that crypto exchange Gemini has released its first-quarter financial results, with revenue reaching $50.3 million, a 42% increase from $35.3 million in the same period last year. This drove its stock price up by as much as 30% in after-hours trading.
The company stated that the growth was mainly driven by its service business, OTC trading, and crypto-related credit card services such as the Gemini Credit Card. Revenue from the credit card segment grew approximately 300% year-over-year, now accounting for nearly half of total revenue.
Gemini also disclosed its prediction market business data for the first time. Since its launch in December last year, the business has attracted over 20,000 users to trade contracts, with cumulative contracts traded exceeding 100 million, contributing approximately $400,000 in revenue. The company noted that trading volume in April increased by a further 78% compared to the previous month.
Gemini CEO Tyler Winklevoss stated that the company is gradually transitioning from a crypto trading platform into a broader "market company." Previously, Gemini had obtained a CFTC derivatives clearing organization license, which supports its expansion into derivatives and prediction market businesses.
