• Revenue diversification: Other revenue reached $75.2M in H1. Can subscriptions, payment infrastructure, transaction services and Arc develop into meaningful recurring revenue streams? The ARC presale contribution also needs to be separated from recurring business.

In H1 2026, Circle generated approximately $1.4B in revenue and reserve income, while $819M went to distribution partners and transaction costs. That's roughly 59 cents of every dollar.
A few things I'll be looking at in tomorrow's report:
• Reserve income and margins: How much is Circle retaining after distribution payments, particularly its Coinbase arrangement?
• Interest rates: How much pressure is lower reserve yields putting on income, and can USDC circulation growth compensate?
