Twitter’s Jack Dorsey Supports Adoption of Bitcoin

Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey recently expressed his interest in cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin and said that he would like to see it adopted as global means of payment.

Dorsey, who is also CEO of Square, said that he believes Bitcoin, or another cryptocurrency, will become the internet’s native currency. It is said that Dorsey wants to have his company at the forefront of cryptocurrency adoption as it would lower the barrier for Dorsey’s payments company to enter new markets.

According to Nomura Instinet, Square’s mobile payment app, which was launched in January, is growing faster than PayPal’s Venmo partly due to it allowing transactions in bitcoin.
