Dorsey isn’t exactly new to the cryptocurrency scene. His financial payments startup, Square, was one of the first Silicon Valley companies to embrace cryptocurrency. Square began accepting Bitcoin almost five years ago.
Bitcoin has had a rough twelve months. In December 2017, Bitcoin’s price hovered around $20,000. The price of a single Bitcoin has been on a dive since then. This month, Bitcoin’s price has hovered slightly over $3,000.
