<p class="p1" style="text-align: justify">The revenue generated from Block’s Bitcoin holdings accounted for approximately 43% of the company’s total revenue of $5.6 billion. Strong consumer demand and positive spending contributed to the growth of fintech companies in the third quarter.</p>

Block stated that there has been no depreciation in the value of its Bitcoin holdings since the second quarter of 2023. As of September 30, 2023, Block’s Bitcoin investment was valued at $102 million.
