Square may make a Bitcoin hardware wallet, Jack Dorsey said. In a 13-part Twitter post, the executive explained his thoughts on what a device would look like if Square released it. "Bitcoin is for everyone," Dorsey said. "It is important for us to build an inclusive product that brings non-custodial solutions to the global market."

To that point, any potential hardware wallet from Square would include some kind of phone integration. “An uncompromising focus on mobile interaction is likely to include the most people,” said Dorsey. At the same time, he acknowledged that your phone can be a significant liability, especially in the context of a cryptocurrency wallet.

If Square finally decides to implement this idea, Dorsey promises that the company will set up Twitter and Github accounts dedicated to the project so that people can understand its progress.
