$SQ Earnings Q4 2020 Ramblings
Interesting things to note:

  • The respective ecosystems are the key. Cash App + Sellers
  • BTC clean energy initiative; reinvest gains in funds
  • Carbon Free from 230
  • $170M purchase in BTC. Believe BTC has highest probability of being internet currency (bought 50M). Could be the future of internet currency

Sellers;
  • Focus and expansion on sales to improve mid-market/large cohort based on ML learnings.
  • Growth in the omni-channel
  • Strong cohort growth. 5 quarter payback, 3X return YoY.

Cash App;
  • 8% growth from 2020 versus 2019 from sellers growth
  • Growing engagement and monetization in Cash App. 162% YoY.
  • 36M transaction customers 50% YoY
  • Cash Apps boost experiments. Huge upside for personalization and local activation based on locations. Upside for combination for seller/cash app ecosystem. Could these reward boosts be used for future advertising on the advertiser side? Could boost be the precursor to merge the entire Square ecosystem?

Final Thoughts:
Sellers
  • Businesses that have been started in COVID and have been able to maximize operations are likely going to grow with SQ and extend LTV.
  • SQ currently only has 1% penetration in mid/large size markets. Big upside
Cash App
  • More expansion of frictionless experience for increased daily utility
  • Focus is on the customer experience. Still lots to improve
