Bitcoin, Dogecoin Or Ripple? Backers Fight Over Best Crypto For Elon Musk’s Twitter Payments

The cryptocurrency community is divided over which token Twitter should integrate into its database to function as a payment app. Some believe that (CRYPTO: DOGE) is the obvious choice, while others believe that (CRYPTO: XRP) or (CRYPTO: BTC) would be better suited for the task.

What Happened: Bitcoin bull and the co-founder of the investment firm Morgan Creek Digital, Anthony Pompliano, with 1.6 million followers on Twitter, said “If Elon Musk really wants to turn Twitter into a payments app then Bitcoin is the only payment network that can handle instantaneous, global micro-transactions at scale”.

This resulted in a heated debate.

If @elonmusk really wants to turn Twitter into a payments app then Bitcoin is the only payment network that can handle instantaneous, global micro transactions at scale.

Twitter tipping already allows users to send USD or BTC over the Bitcoin network, so natural extension.
