Jack Dorsey’s casual appearance at Africa Bitcoin Conference sparks online reactions

Jack Dorsey, co-founder of Twitter and CEO of Block, attended the Africa Bitcoin Conference in Nairobi, Kenya, from December 9 to 11. He previously invested $2 million in a local bitcoin mining startup, Gridless, in 2022. Dorsey’s casual appearance, including a Satoshi Smiley T-shirt and flip-flops, drew attention online. Many users compared his look to that of a homeless person, with comments highlighting his relaxed style as unusual for a billionaire. Despite the criticism, Dorsey remains a prominent figure in the cryptocurrency space. Kenya has a significant number of cryptocurrency owners, ranking tenth globally.
