Mark Your Calendars: Elon Musk, Jack Dorsey To Talk About Bitcoin July 21
Bitcoin fans are in for an interesting presentation at The B Word event as both Elon Musk and Jack Dorsey have agreed to discuss the cryptocurrency with each other on July 21.
The two tech billionaires came to an agreement to a sit down on Thursday in a Twitter exchange after Dorsey posted about the event, which is a “Bitcoin focused initiative that aims to demystify and destigmatize mainstream narratives about Bitcoin.”
Musk started the exchange between the two by saying in reply to Dorsey, “Bicurious?”
The Twitter co-founder replied, “Bizarre! Let’s you and I have a conversation at the event. You can share all your curiosities...”
Musk agreed, saying in response, “For the Bitcurious? Very well then, let’s do it,”
Dorsey replied, “Done! Will set up.”
According to the website, The B Word event is being held on July 21, where it will offer, “a live experience and a library of content to the investor community, enabling a more informed discussion about the role Bitcoin can serve for institutions across the globe.”
The news that Musk is looking to discuss Bitcoin comes after he announced in early June that he was seemingly breaking up with the currency by no longer offering it as payment for Tesla EVs due to the global impact of mining the cryptocurrency.
However, Musk said at the time that Tesla would hold on to the $1.5 billion in Bitcoin that it bought as part of the venture to begin accepting as payment back in March. Musk held true to the promise thus far, posting a diamond hands emoji on Twitter in May, as proof that he would not sell despite the losses the currency was experiencing until a more efficient mining solution was found.
But Musk has been a proponent of Dogecoin, often tweeting about the currency, which frequently sends the price soaring.
