Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2022, the staff of the SEC issued SAB 121, which provides guidance to entities that have obligations to safeguard crypto-assets held in custody on behalf of their platform users. SAB 121 states that the entity should recognize a liability representing its obligation to safeguard such crypto-assets accompanied by a corresponding asset on its balance sheet representing the platform users’ crypto-assets held in custody measured at fair value initially and at each subsequent reporting period. SAB 121 also states that accompanying disclosures should be considered regarding the entity’s obligation to safeguard crypto-assets for platform users. We adopted SAB 121 as part of the financial statements covering the interim period ended June 30, 2022, with retrospective application as of the beginning of fiscal year 2022. As a result of (and solely by virtue of) our adoption of SAB 121, we recognized an asset captioned “Asset related to user cryptocurrencies safeguarding obligation” and a liability captioned “User cryptocurrencies safeguarding obligation” on our consolidated balance sheets. As of December 31, 2022, the carrying value of each was $8.4 billion We also added disclosures to Note 1 - Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Note 8 - Investments and Fair Value Measurement.

In October 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update 2021-08, “Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers.” This guidance requires contract assets and contract liabilities from contracts with customers that are acquired in a business combination to be recognized and measured as if the acquirer had originated the original contract. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 on a prospective basis, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. As of December 31, 2022, the planned adoption of this guidance is not expected to have any impact on our financial statements.
