Twitter Reportedly Testing Bitcoin Tipping OptionTwitter Inc. (NYSE: TWTR) is reportedly testing a bitcoin tipping feature. This development followed CEO Jack Dorsey hinting in July that bitcoin may be integrated into several products, including Tip Jar. Macrumors reported Tuesday:
Twitter’s latest beta update introduces support for providing content creators with bitcoin tips using the ‘Tip Jar’ feature that Twitter introduced earlier this year.
Dorsey said in July that bitcoin is a big part of Twitter’s future, noting that bitcoin is the best candidate for the native currency of the internet. He opined at the time: “If the Internet has a native currency, a global currency, we are able to move so much faster with products such as Super Follows, Commerce, Subscription, Tip Jar, and we can reach every single person on the planet because of that instead of going down on market-by-market approach.”
