Expert Statements
Charles Allen, Chief Executive Officer of BTCS
“The third quarter was a breakout quarter for BTCS and Imperium. BTCS delivered a record $3.5 million in gross profit at an 86% gross margin, surpassing our full-year gross profit target of $6 million with a full quarter remaining in 2026. That performance was driven by Imperium, where we grew our paired liquidity pool positions from approximately $8 million to approximately $41 million and expanded into a multi-chain strategy with the integration of Base. Looking to the fourth quarter, we intend to keep scaling Imperium, and we expect it to remain the leading driver of our business.”
Michael Prevoznik, Chief Financial Officer of BTCS
“This quarter showed what Imperium can do at scale. Gross profit more than doubled quarter-over-quarter and our gross margin expanded to 86%, as DeFi revenues grew to represent the large majority of our total revenue. Reaching our $6 million gross profit target in nine months is a meaningful milestone, and we remain focused on scaling revenue and gross profit while managing our balance sheet with discipline.”
Ben Hunter, Chief Technology Officer of BTCS
“Integrating Base was a major milestone for our engineering team this quarter. Expanding Imperium beyond Ethereum mainnet gave us access to another deep pool of on-chain activity, and our team built and deployed the strategies needed to operate there. We are continuing to refine our existing strategies while evaluating additional networks and opportunities that we believe could further scale Imperium.”
Charles Allen, Chief Executive Officer of BTCS
“Hitting our gross profit target a quarter early reflects the strategy we have been building toward and the hard work from our team”
Charles Allen, Chief Executive Officer of BTCS
“We believe Imperium gives BTCS a differentiated way to generate revenue from Ethereum’s on-chain economy, and with a multi-chain approach, we believe we have substantial room to grow. Looking ahead, I remain optimistic about continued institutional adoption of digital assets and see two major drivers shaping the future of on-chain finance: the tokenization of real-world assets and the rise of agentic AI. Tokenization has the potential to bring a broader range of financial assets on-chain, while AI agents could increasingly use these same rails to transact and make payments autonomously. We believe both trends could expand the scale and scope of activity on-chain, creating greater demand for accessible liquidity. Through Imperium, we are building the capabilities to help meet that demand and position BTCS for these emerging opportunities.”
