Elon Musk, Jack Dorsey At “B Word”

Influential CEOs Elon Musk of Tesla and Jack Dorsey of Square have agreed to discuss Bitcoin at “The ₿ Word” event on July 21. The conversation was apparently confirmed in a Twitter thread, which started with a tweet from Dorsey promoting the event.

“The #bitcoin development community above all else,” Dorsey tweeted, linking to the event, for which he is a featured speaker. “As more companies and institutions get into the mix, we all want to help protect and spread what makes #bitcoin open development so perfect. This day is focused on education and actions to do just that.”

Musk, in turn, replied “Bicurious?” referring to the “B Word” aspect of the event title and prompting Dorsey to invite him for a talk at the event — to share all of his curiosities. Musk accepted the invitation, and Dorsey said he would set it up for the upcoming event.

The ₿ Word is a Bitcoin-focused initiative that seeks to demystify and destigmatize the many misconstrued mainstream narratives around Bitcoin. It also aims to discuss how institutions can benefit from Bitcoin, explaining how and why they should embrace it. Additionally, the event seeks to raise awareness on the areas of the network currently in need of support.
