Gemini, the crypto exchange founded by the Winklevoss brothers, saw its shares surge after Winklevoss Capital Fund invested $100 million. The investment, made at $14 per share in bitcoin, coincided with Gemini's first-quarter financial update, where it reported a narrower loss of 93 cents per share and revenue of $50.3 million, exceeding expectations. Despite a 27% drop in exchange revenue, credit card revenue surged nearly 300%. The company aims to transition from a crypto-focused entity to a broader markets company, amidst challenges since its IPO.
