Twitter Inc TWTR co-founder and its former CEO Jack Dorsey is planning to create a new decentralized web that will be centered on Bitcoin BTC/USD.
With his Block Inc SQ subsidiary TBD, Dorsey aims to build Web5 based on Bitcoin and believes it will play an integral part in the evolution of the internet.
Following Dorsey’s announcement, Twitter is upbeat talking about the idea. One of his followers, @Namcios, tweeted about the TBD and Web5.

Musk’s support for Dogecoin has continued even as the price of the crypto falls to new 52-week lows. Last month, he announced on Twitter that the SpaceX merchandise would soon be available in Dogecoin.
DOGE was trading at $0.0662 on Sunday morning, down almost 9% in the past 24 hours.
