    Why Bullish (BLSH) Is Getting Attention Now

    Listen to the news

    Why Bullish earnings grabbed the market’s attention

    Bullish (BLSH) reported second quarter 2026 results on August 13, with sales of $15.53 million and a net loss of $270.19 million from continuing operations, a sharp swing from profit a year earlier.

    See our latest analysis for Bullish.

    Against that backdrop, Bullish shares trade at $24.62, with a 30 day share price return of 9.86% that sits against a much weaker 90 day share price return and a 1 year total shareholder return that declined 58.63%. This suggests that recent momentum has not yet reversed the longer downturn in investor sentiment following the widened losses.

    If this earnings reaction has you reassessing your exposure to digital asset platforms, it can help to widen the opportunity set. One way to do that is by scanning 20 cryptocurrency and blockchain stocks

    Bullish now trades at a steep discount to analyst targets after a sharp swing into heavy losses and a weak 1 year return. Is that discount compensating you for the risks, or is it reflecting caution that still makes sense?

    Preferred price to sales multiple of 12.4x for Bullish: Is it justified?

    Bullish closed at $24.62, and the stock currently trades on a P/S ratio of 12.4x, which looks expensive compared with both peers and the wider US Capital Markets industry.

    The P/S ratio compares the company’s market value to its revenue. For a business like Bullish that is currently loss making and forecast to remain unprofitable over the next 3 years, revenue based metrics often become the main shorthand investors use. A higher P/S can signal that the market is placing a premium on future revenue growth potential rather than current earnings.

    In this case Bullish’s P/S of 12.4x is far above the US Capital Markets industry average of 3.5x and the peer average of 4.2x. It is also well ahead of the estimated fair P/S ratio of 4.1x that regression analysis suggests the market could move toward for a company with similar characteristics. That combination points to a valuation that is rich compared with both direct peers and the level implied by the SWS fair ratio framework.

    Result: Price-to-sales of 12.4x (OVERVALUED)

    However, Bullish still faces risks if heavy losses continue or if sentiment toward digital asset platforms weakens again, which could pressure both revenues and valuation.
