Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]  
Description of derivatives and related hedge accounting designation
The following outlines the Company’s derivatives:
Type of DerivativeDescription of DerivativeLocation of Host Contract and Derivative on Balance Sheets
Crypto asset borrowings
The Company borrowed crypto assets that resulted in the obligation to deliver a fixed amount of crypto assets in the future.

Crypto asset borrowings
Accounts and loans receivable denominated in crypto assets
Accounts receivable denominated in crypto assets: The Company provided services for which, under the contract, the customer pays in crypto assets. The amount of crypto assets are fixed at the time of invoicing.

Crypto asset loans receivable: The Company lends crypto assets to institutions. The amount of crypto assets are fixed at the time of loan origination.

In both of the above cases, the right to receive fixed amounts of crypto assets consists of a receivable host contract and an embedded forward contract to purchase crypto assets.

Accounts and loans receivable, net of allowance
Other payables denominated in crypto assets
The Company entered into arrangements that result in the obligation to deliver a fixed amount of crypto assets in the future.

Accrued expenses and other current liabilities
Crypto asset futures
The Company entered into short positions on futures contracts to minimize the exposure on the change in the fair value price of crypto assets held.

Accounts and loans receivable, net of allowance
Crypto assets pledged as collateral
The Company enters into certain borrowing arrangements that require the Company to post collateral in the form of crypto assets. If the lender has the right to use the crypto asset collateral, the Company presents the collateral pledged as a right to receive a fixed amount of crypto assets.

Prepaid expenses and other current assets
Foreign currency forward contractsThe Company entered into foreign currency forward contracts, with maturities of 12 months or less, to offset the foreign currency exchange risk of its assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies. These contracts are not designated as hedging instruments and reduce, but do not entirely eliminate, the impact of foreign currency exchange rate movements on the Company’s assets and liabilities.Prepaid expenses and other current assets/ Accrued expenses and other current liabilities

(1)    For risk management purposes, the Company applies hedge accounting using these derivative instruments in qualifying fair value hedges to primarily hedge the fair value exposure of crypto asset prices.
(2)    Derivative transactions are measured in terms of the notional amount; however, this amount is not recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheets and is not, when viewed in isolation, a meaningful measure of the risk profile of the derivative instruments. The notional amount is generally not exchanged, but is used only as the underlying basis on which the value of exchange payments or settlement under these contracts are determined.
