Payments startup company Square aims at recruiting several engineers and designers and wants them to work on their cryptocurrency projects, CEO of both Square and Twitter on March 20, Jack Dorsey tweets about the job opportunity in the world of cryptocurrency and the news.

Jack Dorsey, the founder of Twitter, revealed on Wednesday evening that Square is planning to recruit three to four engineers and one designer to work full-time on open source projects and contribute to the cryptocurrency or bitcoin ecosystem. However, Spokesperson of Square said that there is no further information to be shared beside the tweets.

Jack Dorsey also mentioned,

“the new square employees will have the opportunity to be paid in Bitcoin, they can work from anyplace and needs to report me directly.”

Each and every work will be open source, and the new employees should not focus on their own commercial interest in the Square rather than focussing on interests that are best suitable for the crypto community. Jack Dorsey has been an active supporter of bitcoin for a long time. He expects that the bitcoin will be the only single currency of the internet and single native currency of the world in the future.

Dorsey added in the tweet on Wednesday that cryptocurrency ecosystem must be improved. He further stated,

“Square has taken in excess from the open source community to bring us here. We have not returned enough to them, and this is a small technique of returning them back, and one who is aligned with our border interests which is a more convenient and accessible global financial system for the internet.”
