Jack Dorsey and several other Bitcoin supporters are calling for the Signal app to adopt Bitcoin

ChainCatcher news, according to Cointelegraph, several Bitcoin supporters, including Jack Dorsey, are promoting the adoption of Bitcoin by the privacy-focused instant messaging app Signal through a new initiative called "Bitcoin for Signal."

The initiative aims to integrate Bitcoin with the Cashu protocol to enable payment functionality within the Signal app. Dorsey posted on the X platform on Thursday and retweeted a post from the anonymous Bitcoin developer Cashu (the initiator of the "Bitcoin for Signal" initiative). Bitcoin developer Peter Todd also expressed support for the initiative, hoping that Bitcoin could replace or at least expand Signal's current cryptocurrency payment solution—MobileCoin (MOB).
