On Wednesday, November 19, Bullish posted its third-quarter 2025 results, which reflected its expanding offering in the U.S. Bullish, trading under the ticker BLSH on the New York Stock Exchange, reported an adjusted revenue of $76.5 million for Q3, a 71% increase from $44.6 million a year ago.

“Bullish continues to win. After posting record SS&O revenue and record profitability in the third quarter, we are continuing to see strong momentum in the fourth quarter,” said David Bonanno, Bullish CFO.

During the quarter, Bullish also made two strategic expansions. For one, the exchange launched crypto options trading, which already surpassed $1 billion in cumulative volume.
