Bullish exchange announces 2Q figures, reports 3X increase in ADV since 1Q

Total trading volume since launch reaches over US$80B in July 2022, gains significant market share for BTC/USD

CAYMAN ISLANDS — July 26, 2022 — Bullish, a technology company that operates Bullish exchange, one of the fastest growing cryptocurrency exchanges in the world, today announced key milestones for the second quarter of 2022, continuing strong momentum in its early months of operation.

Key figures reported in the business update released today include:

 

 

The average daily volume (ADV) on the exchange for 2Q’22 was US$522 million, up from US$167 million in 1Q’22. Bullish saw accelerated growth as ADV reached US$857 million in the month of June 2022.

 

 

The total trading fees and spreads earned in 2Q’22 were US$64 million, up from US$19 million in 1Q’22. For the month of June, the fees and spreads earned were US$37 million.

 

 

The total cumulative trading volume since the exchange launched reached over US$80 billion in July 2022.

The regulated platform, which opened in permitted jurisdictions to select institutional customers in November 2021, and to the public in late December 2021, now has the world’s deepest liquidity for the BTC/USD trading pair. Bullish is also overtaking more established platforms in BTC/USD spot volume, making Bullish a top three exchange by volume for this pair.

“Just over six months since launching, the talented and committed global workforce at Bullish has placed the Bullish exchange firmly on the map,” said Thomas Farley, Chairman and CEO of Far Peak Acquisition Corporation (NYSE: FPAC), a special purpose acquisition company, who will serve as the CEO of Bullish upon the completion of the pending business combination between Bullish and FPAC. “We continue to be excited about the Bullish-Far Peak merger and the promising future of the business following a successful closing.”


“Bullish liquidity pool technology has proven itself as a core component of crypto financial markets in a very short period of time,” said Brendan Blumer, Chairman of Bullish. “We believe that further enhancements will continue to widen the gap between Bullish and legacy exchange designs.”

Bullish recently introduced proprietary range-bound liquidity pool technology on the platform, which allows the capital within a liquidity pool to be condensed in range closer to the current market price — creating greater bid-offer depth and increased capital efficiency. The exchange continues to innovate on its liquidity pool technology, working to create increasingly efficient and customizable liquidity pools.

The Bullish exchange, which is operated by Bullish (GI) Limited, is regulated by the Gibraltar Financial Services Commission. It has been launched in 40+ select jurisdictions in Asia Pacific, Europe, Africa and Latin America.

The platform brings together the most trusted elements of traditional centralized exchanges with the best, proven innovations of decentralized finance to create a new breed of exchange that benefits both asset holders and traders.

As announced on July 8, 2021, Far Peak Acquisition Corporation (NYSE: FPAC), a special purpose acquisition company, and Bullish entered into a Business Combination Agreement (the “Agreement”) providing for a business combination in which Bullish would become publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange. The combination is anticipated to close in the third quarter of 2022.

Bullish Business Update – Q2’ 2022 Disclaimer and risk factors Certain Risks Applicable to Bullish Bullish is subject to a broad spectrum of risks and uncertainties that may lead to actual events, results or performance to differ materially from what is represented in this presentation. Key risk factors include: • Risks related to the timing and likelihood of completing the transaction due to closing conditions not being satisfied or failure to obtain the necessary approvals. • As an early-stage company entering a highly competitive market with a limited operating history, the operations of Bullish are nascent, unproven and subject to material legal, regulatory, operational, reputational, tax and other risks. • If Bullish fails to attract customers, its business, operating results and financial condition may be significantly harmed. • The future development and growth of crypto assets is subject to a variety of factors that are difficult to predict and evaluate. If crypto assets do not grow as Bullish expects, Bullish’s business, operating results and financial condition could be adversely affected. • The assets and revenues of Bullish are substantially correlated to the prices and volatility of crypto assets. If such price declines, Bullish’s business, operating results, and financial condition would be adversely affected. • Bullish’s business may require regulatory licenses and qualifications that Bullish does not currently have and that may be costly and time-consuming to obtain and, even if obtained, may subsequently be revoked. • Bullish considers many factors in determining in which markets to offer services, and financial penalties and regulatory censure may be among the risks relating to any particular market. • Bullish relies heavily on the use of innovative technology to service its business, however it may not be successful in developing and deploying the necessary technology. • Cyberattacks and security breaches of Bullish’s platform, or those impacting Bullish’s customers or third parties, could adversely impact Bullish’s brand and reputation and its business, operating results and financial condition. • Bullish’s failure to safeguard and manage its customers’ fiat currencies and crypto assets could adversely impact its business, operating results and financial condition. • The loss or destruction of private keys required to access any crypto assets held in custody for Bullish’s own account or for its customers may be irreversible. If Bullish is unable to access its private keys or if Bullish experiences a hack or other data loss relating to its ability to access any crypto assets, it could cause regulatory scrutiny, reputational harm, and other losses. • Legal, regulatory and accounting rules, standards and practices relating to cryptocurrencies and Bullish products are uncertain and still developing. Changes and developments in these or a failure to properly characterize or assess accounting treatment may adversely affect our business, operating results, and financial condition and may, in some cases, lead to licensing requirements, regulatory scrutiny, investigations, fines, restatements, and other penalties. • Bullish’s business will rely on Block.one and other third-party vendors and service providers for material aspects of its operations, requiring entering appropriate contracting arrangements. • Accounting and tax treatment of Bullish activities in different jurisdictions may change or be uncertain. If such accounting and tax treatment changes or such activities are not properly characterized for accounting or tax purposes, Bullish’s financial position and performance could be adversely affected. • Industry data, projections and estimates contained in this presentation are inherently uncertain, subject to interpretation and may not have been independently verified. • Bullish’s business requires a significant deployment of compliance programs and internal controls directed at dealing with extensive regulatory obligations. Such programs and controls are in general still developing in the crypto industry and if Bullish’s programs and controls are not effective or a regulator considers them insufficient the consequences may include reputational harm, regulatory enforcement action and affect Bullish’s ability to conduct business. The foregoing summarizes certain of the general risks related to the business of Bullish, and such list is not exhaustive. The foregoing list has been prepared solely for purpose of assisting interested parties in making their own evaluation with respect to the Business Combination and not for any other purpose. You should carefully consider these risks and uncertainties together with the other available information and should carry out your own diligence and consult with your own financial and legal advisors. A more expansive description of the key risk factors is included in the Registration Statement and in subsequent filings with the SEC, and such risk factors will be more extensive than, and may differ significantly from, the above summary. 04 © Bullish 2022, proprietary
