Congressional Democrats invited Jack Dorsey, the founder of Block (formerly Square) and Twitter, to talk about bitcoin, The Block has learned.
According to two sources familiar with the matter, Dorsey briefed the Democrats of the House Financial Services Committee during a private Q&A session on March 31.
The Block has obtained notes taken by an attendee of the meeting, which was hosted by the committee but open to other Democratic members and their staffs.

Dorsey referenced changes in the energy mix that powers proof-of-work networks like Bitcoin, the transparency of blockchain-based transactions for investigators, and the growing userbase for crypto in payments outside of the Western world.
