Tech companies have to keep the computers turned on, and I'm bothered by your question dodge.
Are you making interest from your users' credit card debt?
Are you lending out users' shares to short sellers? Do you allow your users to short sell?

We don't offer credit cards and don't have short selling. Stock loan is another traditional line of business we do not currently use but will as we grow.
As we scale, we keep the lights on from the outside capital we have raised while we prove product market fit.
