"I think the most beautiful thing about it, is there's no one person setting the direction, and there's no one person, on the other side, that can stop it," Dorsey said, responding to a question regarding his stance on Bitcoin and digital currencies.
"We have something that is pretty organic in nature, and very principled in its original design," Dorsey noted, leading into his view of Bitcoin's whitepaper as poetry.
