Twitter and Square co-founder Jack Dorsey, known for his unconventional lifestyle, has had a dynamic career in Silicon Valley. After founding Twitter in 2006 and later returning as CEO in 2015, he led the platform through the techlash, testifying before Congress. Dorsey, who also heads financial tech firm Block (formerly Square), stepped down as Twitter CEO in 2021 and changed his official title to "Block Head" in 2022. His interests span from tech to cryptocurrency, with a strong belief in Bitcoin. Dorsey's involvement in Elon Musk's Twitter acquisition, controversies over security practices, and his new blockchain-based social media venture, Bluesky Social, have kept him in the spotlight.
Dorsey's eccentricities, such as eating one meal a day and taking ice baths, often make headlines. Despite initial support for Musk's Twitter takeover, Dorsey has expressed disagreements and apologized for challenges faced by Twitter employees post-acquisition. His diverse ventures, political endorsements, and ongoing impact on the tech industry contribute to the narrative of Jack Dorsey's intriguing and atypical journey in the tech world.
