According to the financial report, Square’s fourth-quarter revenues from the sale of BTC totaled more than $ 52 million, exceeding the indications for the third quarter ($ 43 million) and the second ($ 37 million).
Square Cash began to support cryptocurrency (purchase and storage) from last year, and this service turned out to be very popular among American BTC holders. By the way, Dorsey recently hinted at the quick integration of more Bitcoin technologies into Square Cash. From the BTC trade in 4Q2018

CEO Twitter also took part in the Lightning Torch transaction relay, confirming his belief in Bitcoin as the underlying cryptocurrency. He added that he has no other coins in his briefcase, not even BTC hard forks.
