Anyone interested in applying just has to fill out a Google form with their name, email address and “proof of work.”Dorsey is a longtime bitcoin fan. His Twitter bio simply reads “#Bitcoin” and his digital payments firm, Square, bought $50 million of the cryptocurrency last year. Twitter finance chief Ned Segal said this week that the social media giant might follow suit.<img src="https://imagizer.imageshack.com/img922/5716/nFBSJD.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="width: 639px" />The trust is the latest chapter in Dorsey and Jay-Z’s budding relationship. A report emerged in December that Square was interested in acquiring Tidal, the struggling music streaming service that Jay-Z bought in 2015.The duo was also spotted lounging on a yacht with Jay-Z’s wife Beyoncé in August and hanging out on a beach with actor Sean Penn in November.</blockquote>
