Özet

Digital asset infrastructure company BitGo reported a net loss of $19 million in the second quarter of 2026, despite an 80% year-over-year increase in revenue to $4.3 billion. The net loss narrowed from $60.7 million in Q1, while quarterly revenue grew 14.7%. The company attributed the shift to a loss from a year-ago profit primarily to an $18.8 million unrealized loss on digital assets, compared to a $55.8 million unrealized gain previously. CEO Mike Belshe stated results were below expectations, citing lower profitability due to reduced margins and an unfavorable revenue mix. He explained the margin pressure came from narrower spreads on certain spot trades and a smaller contribution from derivatives. BitGo approved a stock buyback program of up to $50 million and expects cost-cutting measures, including a roughly 15% workforce reduction in June, to yield about $15 million in annual cash savings. The company anticipates lower expenses in Q3. Following the earnings report, BitGo's stock fell 1.8% in after-hours trading to $4.90.

BitGo, a public digital asset infrastructure company, reported a net loss of $19 million in the second quarter of 2026, despite an almost 80% year-over-year increase in revenue to $4.3 billion.

BitGo (BTGO) reported on Wednesday that its net loss narrowed from $60.7 million in the first quarter, while revenue grew 14.7% compared to the previous quarter. The shift from profit to loss on a yearly basis largely reflects an $18.8 million unrealized loss on digital assets, compared to an unrealized gain of $55.8 million a year earlier.

BitGo CEO Mike Belshe said during the quarterly earnings call that the company's financial results for the second quarter were below expectations.

"While we managed to achieve revenue growth, profitability was impacted by lower margins and an unfavorable revenue mix," Belshe said. He attributed the margin decline to "tighter spreads on certain spot transactions" and a lower contribution from derivatives.

The company also approved a share repurchase program of up to $50 million and expects cost-saving measures to provide about $15 million in annual cash savings. BitGo anticipates lower expenses in the third quarter after cutting its workforce by approximately 15% in June.

BitGo shares fell 1.8% in after-hours trading to $4.90 after closing up 0.6% on Wednesday at $4.99, according to Yahoo Finance data.

Cryptocurrency Companies Urge AI Labs to 'Arm' Bitcoin Defenders with the Most Powerful Models

Over thirty Bitcoin and cryptocurrency companies have called on leading AI labs to provide open-source developers with early access to the most powerful cybersecurity models. In an open letter organized by the Bitcoin Policy Institute, signatories including Coinbase, Block, BitGo, Blockstream, ARK Invest, and Foundry argue that developers of critical financial infrastructure like Bitcoin Core are at a disadvantage, using less capable AI tools than potential attackers. They contend that the safety restrictions of public AI models can hinder legitimate vulnerability research. The letter requests that AI labs establish trusted access programs offering early model access, sufficient computing resources for audits, secure environments for private code analysis, and inclusion for small teams and independent developers. The signatories warn that the Bitcoin network secures over $1 trillion in assets, and infrastructure vulnerabilities pose significant risks. They cite recent incidents like the exploitation of a critical vulnerability in BTCPay Server and a major attack on Coldcard wallets, where a configuration error led to the theft of approximately 1,719 BTC ($111 million). The call comes amid a series of high-value crypto infrastructure attacks in 2026, including multimillion-dollar losses from protocols like Ostium, AFX, Summer.fi, and Bonzo Lend due to logic flaws and oracle manipulation. The companies believe advanced AI could strengthen defenses by analyzing large codebases, detecting atypical exploit scenarios, and helping developers identify issues before malicious actors can exploit them.
