Jack Dorsey Says Block Will Allow Square Sellers To Auto Convert A Percent Of Daily Sales To Bitcoin
Block Inc (NYSE:SQ) CEO and Twitter co-founder Jack Dorsey has announced a new feature that enables Square merchants to automatically convert a percentage of their daily sales into Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC).
Block Inc（紐約證券交易所代碼：SQ）首席執行官兼推特聯合創始人傑克·多爾西宣佈了一項新功能，使Square商家能夠自動將其每日銷售額的一定百分比轉換爲比特幣（加密貨幣：BTC）。
What Happened: On Wednesday, Dorsey took to X, formerly Twitter, to announce the new feature, stating, "Square sellers: auto-convert a percent of your daily sales to bitcoin."
發生了什麼：週三，Dorsey在X（前身爲Twitter）上宣佈了這項新功能，他說：“Square賣家：自動將每日銷售額的百分比轉換爲比特幣。”
This feature, which is rolling out in the U.S. starting today, will transfer 1-10% of Square sellers' daily sales to their personal Cash App account. At the end of the day, this amount will be converted into Bitcoin. Merchants will receive a confirmation of the conversion when the transaction is complete, according to a TechCrunch article shared by Dorsey.
該功能將於今天開始在美國推出，它將把Square賣家每日銷售額的1-10％轉移到他們的個人Cash App賬戶。歸根結底，這筆金額將轉換爲比特幣。根據多爾西分享的TechCrunch文章，交易完成後，商家將收到轉換確認。

According to TechCrunch, Block has stated that the Bitcoin conversion feature will be available to all sole proprietors or single-member LLCs in the coming months. The company will take a 1% cut from every conversion made by the seller. Merchants can send Bitcoin to other wallets or sell them at any time from their Cash App account.
根據TechCrunch的說法，Block表示，比特幣轉換功能將在未來幾個月內提供給所有獨資經營者或單一成員有限責任公司。該公司將從賣方的每次轉換中扣除1％。商家可以隨時通過其Cash App賬戶將比特幣發送到其他錢包或出售。
Why It Matters: This move comes as part of Block's ongoing efforts to expand its cryptocurrency offerings. In December 2023, the company launched its self-custody Bitcoin wallet, Bitkey, which is now accessible in over 95 countries. The wallet, available as a mobile app or hardware storage, highlights a two-of-three multi-signature wallet consisting of a mobile key, a hardware key, and a server key.
爲何重要：此舉是Block不斷擴大其加密貨幣產品範圍的努力的一部分。2023年12月，該公司推出了自託管的比特幣錢包Bitkey，該錢包現已在超過95個國家使用。該錢包可用作移動應用程序或硬件存儲，突出顯示了由移動密鑰、硬件密鑰和服務器密鑰組成的三分之二的多重簽名錢包。
However, this announcement also comes on the heels of significant layoffs at Block. In January 2024, the company reduced its workforce by 10%, affecting employees across various sectors of the company, including the Cash App, Foundational, and Square sectors. The layoffs were reportedly conducted in a single day to boost efficiency at the financial firm.
但是，這一宣佈也是在Block大規模裁員之後發佈的。2024年1月，該公司裁員10％，影響了公司各個領域的員工，包括現金應用程序、基礎和Square領域。據報道，裁員是在一天之內進行的，目的是提高該金融公司的效率。
Price Action: Block shares closed 1.58% lower at $74.03 in the regular session and declined nearly 1% in the after-hours trading. At the time of writing, Bitcoin traded 3.5% lower at $64,274.16, according to data from Benzinga Pro.
價格走勢：大宗股票在常規交易中收盤下跌1.58％，至74.03美元，盤後交易中下跌近1％。根據Benzinga Pro的數據，在撰寫本文時，比特幣的交易價格下跌了3.5％，至64,274.16美元。
