“# Despite strong security token growth, tZERO continues to lose money <\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

Despite explosive third-quarter growth in the security token sector, Overstock\u2019s Q3 2020 earnings report reveals that its tZERO alternative trading system (ATS) has continued to lose money.<\/p>\n

The ATS specializes in security tokens, consistently hosting more than 95% of the sector\u2019s monthly trade volumes. tZERO saw dramatic growth in recent months, with monthly volume growing from less than $1 million in May to push $21.8 worth of trade in August \u2014 before sliding back to $9 million in September.<\/p>\n

Although tZERO\u2019s net revenue increased 97% year-over-year to $11.1 million, Overstock’s latest earnings report<\/a> shows tZERO lost $12.4 million before taxes for the third quarter overall. <\/p>\n

Looking at its performance over nine months ending on Sep. 30, tZERO posted a loss of $35.5 million despite net revenue of $34.1 million. Over the same period in 2019, tZERO netted $15.7 in revenue but lost $38.7 million.<\/p>\n

In 2013, Overstock, then a successful online retail firm, became one of the first major mainstream businesses to support<\/a> Bitcoin. Despite announcing it would shift away from retail to focus on blockchain and cryptocurrency technology<\/a> in 2018<\/a>, retail is the only segment of Overstock\u2019s business that is currently profitable \u2014 driving $43 million in revenue last quarter.<\/p>\n

Overstock conducted a $134 million initial coin offering (ICO) for tZERO in mid-2018.<\/p>\n

Overstock venture arm Medici Ventures Inc, which provides ongoing support to the development of tokenization protocol Ravencoin (RVN<\/a>), netted only $2.8 million in Q3 to post a quarterly loss of nearly $6.6 million overall.<\/p>\n

On Oct. 28, Medici Ventures announced<\/a> it had made an $8 million equity purchase in the Caribbean-focussed blockchain technology provider Bitt. Medici previously purchased $4 million of Bitt equity in 2016, followed by a $3 million equity purchase in 2018.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
