The world’s leading social media company, Twitter has revealed it might consider using the world’s most popular crypto, Bitcoin as a treasury reserve and payment options.

The chief financial officer of Twitter, Ned Segal in an interview session on CNBC stated that the social media giant is also looking to pay its employees in Bitcoin as long as they request such an option.

“We have done a lot of the upfront thinking to consider how we might pay employees should they ask to be paid in bitcoin (BTC, -3.53%), how we might pay a vendor if they asked to be paid in bitcoin and whether we need to have bitcoin on our balance sheet,” he said.
