Square's gross payment volume rose 14% to $76.4 billion, with international volume growing 26%. Cash App monthly transacting users reached 60 million in September, up 4%. Bitcoin Ecosystem gross profit fell 50% to $52 million, primarily because of lower fees on certain Cash App bitcoin transactions.
