Voyager Digital Reports Revenue of US$175 Million for Fiscal 2021 and Provides Business Update

 

Voyager Digital Ltd. (“Voyager” or the “Company”) (TSX: VOYG; OTCQX: VYGVF; FRA: UCD2), one of the fastest-growing, publicly traded cryptocurrency platforms in the United States, today announced it has filed its full-year consolidated financials for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021 and is pleased to provide shareholders with a business and operational update.
 
“Fiscal 2021 was a breakout year for Voyager, positioning our platform to be a leading player in the digital asset arena as crypto and related blockchain technologies are increasingly embraced by the mainstream,” said Steve Ehrlich, Voyager’s CEO and Co-founder. “Voyager continues to deliver noteworthy performance through verified user and funded account growth punctuated by providing users with a transparent, safe, secure and trusted personal cryptocurrency platform. We continued to see significant net new funded accounts and net new asset inflows on the platform and as we add more product extensions, we believe the ability to leverage our growing user base will accelerate our revenue growth and provide diversification to our revenue mix.”
 
Fiscal Year 2021 Financial and Business Milestones:
All figures are in U.S. dollars unless otherwise noted.

  • Total revenue increased to $175 million, from $1 million in FY20
  • Operating Income of $56 million, compared to an Operating Loss of $11 million in FY20
  • Total Verified Users grew to 1.75 million, up from 86,000 at June 30, 2020
  • Total Funded Accounts grew to 665,000 from 23,000 at June 30, 2020
  • Total Assets Under Management grew to $2.6 billion from $35 million at June 30, 2020
  • Added to our leadership team in key areas
  • Increased our headcount to 141 at June 30, 2021, from 36 at June 30, 2020
  • Invested in and developed a strategic partnership with Blockdaemon to deliver enhanced staking capabilities

 
“We are seeing industry volumes rebound off extreme midsummer weakness, and are excited about the prospects ahead,” continued Ehrlich. “As we started to see lower than expected volumes in the summer months, we turned our attention to enhancing our rewards programs as a customer acquisition and retention tool. In the September quarter, we started focusing on account acquisition as our key performance metric.  Voyager remains dedicated to growth in funded accounts and deposits and you can expect we will be more aggressive with both our marketing spend as well as our rewards offerings to accelerate growth. As we diversify our revenue streams to enhance the long-term value of each customer and expand our market opportunity internationally, we believe the best is yet to come for the Voyager platform.”
 
Voyager will be announcing the results of its first quarter ending September 30th on or about November 15th, and will provide further commentary on its second quarter ending December 31st based on current trends and a very robust October which validates its strategy of total focus on account and deposit growth.
 
For more detailed information, the Company encourages investors to read its audited financial statements and related Management Discussion & Analysis (“MD&A”) for the three and twelve months ended June 30, 2021, which were filed with SEDAR yesterday.

Strategic partnership will focus on execution, asset management, and broader crypto initiatives

NEW YORKOct. 28, 2021 /PRNewswire/ – Voyager Digital Ltd. (“Voyager” or the “Company”) (TSX: VOYG) (OTCQX: VYGVF) (FRA: UCD2), one of the fastest-growing, publicly traded cryptocurrency platforms in the United States, today announced a $75 million investment from Alameda Research (“Alameda”).

“We are excited to enter into a strategic alliance with Alameda, a clear pioneer in the crypto industry,” said Steve Ehrlich, CEO and Co-founder of Voyager. “Alameda is one of the largest crypto market makers in the world, and we believe there are significant opportunities in working together. While the immediate opportunity is on the order flow and asset management front, we are tremendously excited about potential future synergistic opportunities in the continuously evolving crypto industry. These opportunities include NFTs and crypto derivatives through Alameda, as well as the creation of thought leadership as we work with lawmakers on shaping regulation.”

“We are thrilled to be partnering with Voyager as they have emerged as a key player in the retail crypto market,” commented Caroline Ellison, Co-CEO of Alameda. “As a public company, we have admired Voyager’s transparency in the industry and believe the management team has laid the groundwork to succeed at scale as evidenced by their explosive growth this past year. Through our strategic partnership, we believe there are endless mutually beneficial opportunities to grow both our businesses.”

Alameda Research trades over $5 billion per day across thousands of products including all major coins and altcoins, as well as their derivatives. Alameda has a full-scale global operation with the ability to trade on all major exchanges and markets. Alameda’s market making abilities and sophisticated market neutral algorithms are a perfect fit to be a core lending partner of Voyager and will allow Voyager to further expand the breadth of its rewards program.

New Uses for Smart Glasses

Can Facebook’s Smart Glasses be Smart About Security and Privacy?

Facebook’s global project, referred to as Ego4D is out researching new uses for so-called smart glasses.

In September, Facebook unveiled its Ray-Ban Stories glasses, which have two cameras and three microphones built-in. The glasses capture audio and video so wearers can record their experiences and interactions.

The research project aims to add augmented reality features to smart glasses using artificial intelligence technologies that could provide wearers with a wealth of information, including the ability to get answers to questions like “Where did I leave my keys?” Facebook’s vision also includes a future where the glasses can “know who’s saying what when and who’s paying attention to whom.”

Several other technology companies like Google, Microsoft, Snap, Vuzix and Lenovo have also been experimenting with versions of augmented or mixed reality glasses. Augmented reality glasses can display useful information within the lenses, providing an electronically enhanced view of the world. For example, smart glasses could draw a line over the road to show you the next turn or let you see a restaurant’s Yelp rating as you look at its sign.

However, some of the information that augmented reality glasses give their users could include identifying people in the glasses’ field of view and displaying personal information about them. It was not too long ago that Google introduced Google Glass, only to face a public backlash for simply recording people. Compared to being recorded by smartphones in public, being recorded by smart glasses feels to people like a greater invasion of privacy.

This article was republished with permission from  The
Conversation
, a news site dedicated to sharing ideas from academic experts. It represents the research-based findings and thoughts of 
Apu Kapadia, Professor of Computer Science, Indiana University

As a researcher who studies computer security and privacy, I believe it’s important for technology companies to proceed with caution and consider the security and privacy risks of augmented reality.

Smartphones vs. Smart Glasses

Even though people are now used to being photographed in public, they also expect the photographer typically to raise their smartphone to compose a photo. Augmented reality glasses fundamentally disrupt or violate this sense of normalcy. The public setting may be the same, but the sheer scale and approach of recording has changed.

A Pair of Sunglasses

Facebook’s Ray-Ban Stories glasses capture photos and video and play audio, but the company has much bigger plans for smart glasses, including AI that can interpret what the wearer is seeing. Courtesy Facebook

Such deviations from the norm have long been recognized by researchers as a violation of privacy. My group’s research has found that people in the neighborhood of nontraditional cameras want a more tangible sense of when their privacy is being compromised because they find it difficult to know whether they are being recorded.

Absent the typical physical gestures of taking a photo, people need better ways to convey whether a camera or microphone is recording people. Facebook has already been warned by the European Union that the LED indicating a pair of Ray-Ban Stories is recording is too small.

In the longer term, however, people might become accustomed to smart glasses as the new normal. Our research found that although young adults worry about others recording their embarrassing moments on smartphones, they have adjusted to the pervasive presence of cameras.

Smart Glasses as a Memory Aid

An important application of smart glasses is as a memory aid. If you could record or “lifelog” your entire day from a first-person point of view, you could simply rewind or scroll through the video at will. You could examine the video to see where you left your keys, or you could replay a conversion to recall a friend’s movie recommendation.

Our research studied volunteers who wore lifelogging cameras for several days. We uncovered several privacy concerns – this time, for the camera wearer. Considering who, or what algorithms, might have access to the camera footage, people may worry about the detailed portrait it paints of them.

Who you meet, what you eat, what you watch and what your living room really looks like without guests are all recorded. We found that people were especially concerned about the places being recorded, as well as their computer and phone screens, which formed a large fraction of their lifelogging history.

Popular media already has its take on what can go horribly wrong with such memory aids. “The Entire History of You” episode of the TV series “Black Mirror” shows how even the most casual arguments can lead to people digging through lifelogs for evidence of who said exactly what and when. In such a world, it is difficult to just move on. It’s a lesson in the importance of forgetting.

Psychologists have pointed to the importance of forgetting as a natural human coping mechanism to move past traumatic experiences. Maybe AI algorithms can be put to good use identifying digital memories to delete. For example, our research has devised AI-based algorithms to detect sensitive places like bathrooms and computer and phone screens, which were high on the worry list in our lifelogging study. Once detected, footage can be selectively deleted from a person’s digital memories.

 

 

X-ray Specs of the Digital Self?

However, smart glasses have the potential to do more than simply record video. It’s important to prepare for the possibility of a world in which smart glasses use facial recognition, analyze people’s expressions, look up and display personal information, and even record and analyze conversations. These applications raise important questions about privacy and security.

We studied the use of smart glasses by people with visual impairments. We found that these potential users were worried about the inaccuracy of artificial intelligence algorithms and their potential to misrepresent other people.

Even if accurate, they felt it was improper to infer someone’s weight or age. They also questioned whether it was ethical for such algorithms to guess someone’s gender or race. Researchers have also debated whether AI should be used to detect emotions, which can be expressed differently by people from difference cultures.

Augmenting Facebook’s View of the Future

I have only scratched the surface of the privacy and security considerations for augmented reality glasses. As Facebook charges ahead with augmented reality, I believe it’s critical that the company address these concerns.

I am heartened by the stellar list of privacy and security researchers Facebook is collaborating with to make sure its technology is worthy of the public’s trust, especially given the company’s recent track record.

But I can only hope that Facebook will tread carefully and ensure that their view of the future includes the concerns of these and other privacy and security researchers.

Flying Electric Cars That Fit in Your Garage


Image Credit: XPeng Motors Twitter

The Era of Flying Cars May Have Just Dawned

 

Some electric vehicle (EV) companies are not limiting their vehicles to the road. Yesterday (October 19), XPeng Motors ($XPEV), a Chinese company with the slogan “Pioneering mobility, Exploring technology,” announced a $500 million investment in a company that designs flying cars — they already have a prototype.

XPeng announced the half-billion $US dollar investment in Chinese urban air mobility company HT Aero in a news release. HT Aero is an eight-year-old company that is in the flying car business. The company has built prototypes and brought one it calls the “X2” to a Chinese air show in September.

While many have dreamed for decades of the day they could have a “car” in the garage that would easily fly over traffic and gain access to areas past where the road ends; the vision may have been very different than the current HT Aero prototypes. The X2 is all-electric, has vertical take-off and landing, and incorporates XPeng’s charging technology. There is an overlap with the autonomous driving technology incorporated for both on and off-road. The thought is the average operator will need some help operating an aircraft without advanced pilot training.

In the news release, Xpeng Motors expressed: “What we are seeing is the integration of the three driving forces of smart mobility–disruptive technology, new sources of energy, and mass production. We will embrace this opportunity, which is unprecedented in the history of modern transportation.”

 

Plans for a Domestic Flying Car?

Joby
Aviation
which is headquartered in Santa Cruz, California is building an urban air-mobility business. It has been described as a Tesla plus Uber, in the skies. Joby plans to merge with a SPAC sponsored by LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman.

Elon Musk had once been asked at a shareholder meeting if flying vehicles were on his “to-do” list, “Electric planes, yes, I’ve been dying to do that for a decade, honestly,” Musk continued to express that there are no immediate plans as he has a lot on his plate already.
