Jack Dorsey, former Twitter boss and founder of Block, Inc. (NYSE:XYZ), has a gentle one-word reminder for Elon “Kill Bill” Musk as President Donald Trump’s confidante goes after his “big, beautiful bill.”
Dorsey’s Block is the company behind Cash App and Bitkey that have integrated Bitcoin into their platforms. He recently revealed that he made a purchase in BTC worth $100 at the popular burger chain Steak ‘n Shake. As previously reported, Dorsey himself encouraged the chain to adopt Bitcoin payments.
As Dorsey embraces Bitcoin, he seems to be reminding the current X boss about his onetime love for the cryptocurrency that doesn’t reflect too often of late.
But even Musk seems to be coming to the realization that Bitcoin could be the future of the economy, given the perceived threat of rising debt due to the upcoming bill.
Musk, who recently exited the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), a department tasked with slashing government expenditure, believes Trump’s bill undoes the efforts of DOGE.
The bill that extends the major provisions of Trump’s 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act had Musk reacting to it:
“I think a bill can be big or it can be beautiful but I don’t know if it can be both.”
Elon “Kill Bill” Musk’s tirade against the bill is rooted in his criticism of it as “a Debt Slavery Bill.”
As per the non-partisan Congressional Budget Office, the legislation could add up to $3.8 trillion to the already soaring national debt of $36.9 trillion over the next ten years.
Bitcoin, which many are touting to be the hedge against excessive spending, was trading at $105,463.30, as per Kraken.
