Share gains compound into a recovering tape while the cost reset holds, so operating leverage returns faster than revenue does. The six points of margin here are about a third of the nineteen-point gap between the 65.3% of revenue this model spends on overhead and the 46% the company own cost plan implies at a recovered revenue base. What this case does not reach is the December 2024 peak revenue of $2,272M in a quarter, and it does not assume US perpetuals or unified Deribit liquidity are live and monetised.

Retail order flow: consumer crypto spot volume times a take rate. The take rate has risen five straight quarters to 1.75% because prediction-market and consumer perpetuals fees land in this line while their contract volume is not counted inside crypto spot volume.

Assumptions & reasoning

  • One unit is $1M of consumer crypto spot volume: 25,800 units in 2026 Q2 at $17,507 of revenue each is the disclosed $25.8B of volume at the derived 1.7506% take rate.
  • The take rate is a blend, not a fee schedule. Prediction markets crossed $100M of annualised net revenue in 2026 Q2 and more than doubled sequentially, which is why the rate rises while spot volume falls.
  • The deck reports about $130M of transaction revenue in the first 26 days of 2026 Q3, which a naive extrapolation would turn into roughly $460M for the quarter against the $571M of total transaction revenue this model projects. The deck says in terms not to extrapolate it, and this model does not.
  • Volume history is a cycle, not a season: with six quarters of filed line detail a centred four-quarter moving average yields ratios for 2025 Q3 (1.103) and 2025 Q4 (1.089) only, and none at all for Q1 or Q2, so no seasonal factor can be derived and none is applied.
