Many of us might be aware about Jack Dorsey (CEO of twitter and bitcoin enthusiast) and Elon Musk ongoing twitter buzz which all started with Musk responding to one of the Jack's tweet about Bitcoin related event.But this did not end up here and Jack invited Musk for Bitcoin related discussion on the event. After that people start trolling Musk and many funny comments were made and now Musk had accepted the invitation and it would be really interesting how they both will try to put their thoughts about bitcoin.Most probably Musk is going to announce that Tesla will accept btc now after the event ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) . Read the full details here: Musk vs Dorsey tweet battleWhat do you think of this and who's gonna drop the mic?

When is this event scheduled for? I read the article but couldn't find the date of the event.
This conversation is going to be hilarious too. Also, this might be a landmark event (or am i just imagining) where two tech giants would discuss on Bitcoin and hopefully come to the consensus that Bitcoin is what is needed for the future!
Am I buying more Bitcoin? Hell yea!!

What is certain is that this person has made a great contribution. because the two of them have started discussing quite seriously, it would be nice if we waited for the good news from the results of their discussion. which I hope will have a major impact on Bitcoin growth, including that other altcoin should be included in the discussion.

Based on their Tweets, since Jack said " Let’s you and I have a conversation at the event" safe to assume that they're going to talk at the "The B Word" event which was the main thread post they were conversing at. The event will take place at the 21th next month, as per the website[1]. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2Flf5aLEW.png&t=665&c=JhADCwpIlQdfBQ) The main Twitter post where the conversation happened: https://twitter.com/jack/status/1408102135040970759

This is crazy but will bring a good exposure regarding some important factors about bitcoin problems and adoption including environmental issues etc. Jack Dorsey is undeniably a Bitcoin supporter and Mr Elon Musk is also a supporter but the difference is Mr. Musk is playing an experiment involving Dogecoin and Bitcoin so if that works as intended then it will bring the hype back on Bitcoin and the market hopefully.

[1] https://www.thebword.org/c/the-b-word Thanks for mentioning the date @mk4 for the BTCword event which focus on mainstream of Bitcoin.The featured speakers for this event are : 1) Cathie Wood Founder, CEO and CIO of ARK Invest 2) Jack Dorsey CEO of Square, Inc. 3) Adam Back Co-Founder and CEO of Blockstream 4) Michael Morell Senior Counselor of Beacon Global Strategies, Former Acting and Deputy Director of the Central Intelligence Agency 5) John Newbery Director of Brink
This is a great initiative and have 5 different tracks aiming for various matters related to bitcoin adoption, security,network and others.The live talk between two would really be interesting and people have already take the twiiter to make their presence for the event and stated it as the best crossover discussion of this time.Let's wait for 21st July till then.

This is news to me, but certainly news I am glad to hear. I think this shows Elon understanding that all of the trolling and shitposting he has been doing in regards to bitcoin was not a very wise move on his behalf. Personally I have come to realize the truth about Elon. Yes he's a genius businessman, BUT, he is not a genius in general. He didn't create any of his companies ( sans Space X) such as Tesla and PayPal, rather he came in a pushed others out as the cancer he is.
I am very curious as to when this is actually going to be held?

This is an overall positive. Elon tried to troll Jack like a 15-year old with that "Bicurious" comment. Jack kept his cool like what you'd expect from a billionaire who heads the most influential social media tool in the world today. To the Bitcoiner in me tired of Musk's childish statements, Jack's mature and simple invitation was a perfect contrast to his increasingly foolish behavior.
Lets us hope that Jack can get the Man-child Musk to understand the importance of PoW and Bitcoin network. If nothing else, the event may well be a great chance to uncover Musk's shallow understanding of Bitcoin.

Elon Musk doesn't give that big impact that much when he leave bitcoin behind and fool the market.
Maybe Jack Dorsey will somehow give huge impact in bitcoin at the certain time and we need to wait what will happen next when the collide.
These people are really powerful enough to make the market moves when one of them tweets about a coin.

The problem with debates is that they're not decisive, and this isn't even going to be a proper debate. I'm sure that Jack will come prepared and will offer good points about Bitcoin. But if Musk wants to believe that Bitcoin is unsustainable, he'll keep believing it. I think he's going to talk to Jack because he enjoys attention, but I don't think he'll be convinced ultimately by Jack. If people have strong opinions, it's almost impossible to change them, especially by presenting facts and other relevant data. People react better to appeals to common experience and values and slowly moving towards negotiations about differences.

They've already talked before about the clean energy usage of bitcoin. And whatever they're coming up together this time, I find it positive. As long as Elon stops trolling the market and he's giving his genuine thoughts about bitcoin. He must understand and learn first about bitcoin and I guess Jack is going to give him some tutorial and lessons. ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif)

This news reminds about Justin Sun wanting to have a dinner with Warren Buffet and trying to convince him about the advantages of Bitcoin(or a shitcoin that Sun was promoting,I don't remember).This happened 2 years ago.Buffet remained a true Bitcoin Hater and Sun got a lot of hate for trying to take over the Steemit blockchain. Anyway,I don't think that anything important will happen in the crypto world,after the meeting between Elon Musk and Jack Dorsey.

Jack Dorsey and Twitter are trying to be a digital dictator and want to govern Twitter with their own rules. I don't agree with what Elon does but I don't agree with what Jack and Twitter did with Trump and sure after Trump will be others [1]. Perhaps Elon Musk will be the next one but at least he has yet broken any serious things per rules of Twitter. It is why Elon try to challenge Jack with his tweets.

Most probably Musk is going to announce that Tesla will accept btc now after the event ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) . What do you think of this and who's gonna drop the mic? As per previous tweet from Elon, tesla will resume transection on bitcoin. But hopefully, it'll be boost up again if elon talk about that again. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) Both will try their best and especially Elon will try to push dogecoin along with bitcoin. But this time, Elon's opinion won't matter for anyone as per his tweets. So, Jack will be on top in this discussion. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

Sure he's the CEO, but he's not a majority shareholder, and he's definitely not some Twitter overlord that gets to call literally all the shots. Executive committees and company board of directors has significant power over public companies.

You are right I was researching about this and found some interesting stuff: Most people probably assume that Jack Dorsey is the primary founder and only CEO that Twitter has ever had. In reality, Jack is a co-founder. He launched Twitter in 2006 alongside Biz Stone, Evan Williams and Noah Glass. Jack served as the company's first CEO but was reportedly forced to step down in 2008 by his co-founders and their venture capitalist backers because he was spending too much time on extracurricular hobbies like yoga and meditation retreats. Seriously. Evan Williams served as CEO from 2008 to 2010. A guy named Dick Costolo served as CEO from 2011 to 2015, at that point Dorsey rode back in as CEO, a position he still holds today. ... Because Jack Dorsey doesn't own all that much Twitter stock. Jack owns around 2% of the company. By comparison, Mark Zuckerberg owns 30% of Facebook. The Google founders both own around 14% of Alphabet. Elon Musk owns 22% of Tesla. https://www.celebritynetworth.com/articles/billionaire-news/jack-dorsey-twitter-fall/Jack looks like a smart guy. He became a billionaire and he spent more time with extracurricular hobbies (like yoga and meditation). Lol that's amazing! That's certainly an important thing to do as a billinaire. If I were a billionaire I would certainly avoid those endless meetings that a CEO job requires... Anyway, CEO has some powers, but he has only 2% of shares. He cannot rule Twitter as he wants.

It's a frustrating very common misconception. A lot of people think "CEO" is synonymous to "owner" or worse — a sort of company dictator, which is definitely not the case. I was really annoyed when Jack was heckled by this woman in the Bitcoin 2021 conference because her account got banned: https://mobile.twitter.com/TrumpJew2/status/1400867162684891139

The only reason for Elon Musk's actions is trying to remain in the spotlight and then use that publicity to make a lot of money. Take a look at how he pumped and dumped a shitcoin called DOGE. So essentially whenever you create a topic about him or there is a "discussion" involving him and another public figure, you are all playing into his hand and fueling his future scams.

A while ago notice that news and wondered to share but seems OP already made it. To be honest nothing surprising to me. Most probably Jack Dorsey's motive is good for Bitcoin, but I doubt about Elon Musk's motives. He always looks for his own benefits. His recent behaviors don't indicate that he has any motive to make the crypto-friendly environment at all. Who knows if he accumulated more Bitcoin in dip and now he wants to pump it back? I don't like to see new drama again and again. Elon only wants to take advantage of the pump dump, we already know about Doge, and seems he is moving to Shib as well to pump it. So don't expect too much from him.

You can also add to that their knowledge behind bitcoin. We all know that Elon's just suddenly burst into the scene, with the motive to make more money out of bitcoin noobs, but Jack has been promoting bitcoin even during the bear market. Going as far as Africa to lecture and tells the government about the benefits of crypto in their country. So it's pretty obvious for me that Jack Dorsey has the capability to explain further anything about BTC. Elon Musk should listen to this guy.
