CryptoStar isn't currently profitable, so most analysts would look to revenue growth to get an idea of how fast the underlying business is growing. When a company doesn't make profits, we'd generally expect to see good revenue growth. That's because it's hard to be confident a company will be sustainable if revenue growth is negligible, and it never makes a profit.
CryptoStar actually shrunk its revenue over the last year, with a reduction of 46%. Despite the lack of revenue growth, the stock has returned a solid 11% the last twelve months.
