Jack Dorsey is ramping up his investments in 
Bitcoin mining while scaling back his "Web5" initiative at his company Block.
What's the Scoop?
- Bullish on Bitcoin: Dorsey's payment company, Block, is shifting its focus toward Bitcoin mining by developing mining hardware which will join his suite of Bitcoin products like their Bitcoin wallet, Bitkey
- Vision: Following Trump’s election victory and his pro-Bitcoin mining stance, Dorsey is betting on Bitcoin as a key part of Block's future.
Bankless Take:
Though Trump's pro-Bitcoin remarks might seem to be Dorsey's main motivation, there could be more behind this move. The post-election stock surge suggests investors are factoring in inflation expectations, which may be driving Dorsey's interest in Bitcoin mining as a hedge. With investors seeking assets that preserve value amid inflation, Bitcoin could soon see an influx of capital as a store of wealth.
