Jack Dorsey to Speak at Bitcoin Conference in Las Vegas Next Week

The announcement says Jack Dorsey will appear at the event, accompanied by a quote criticizing banks and underscoring Bitcoin’s anti-intermediary narrative.

Fact Check
The claim has two parts: that Jack Dorsey will speak at the Bitcoin conference in Las Vegas next week, and that the announcement includes a quote criticizing banks. The official event pages 'Speakers' and 'Jack Dorsey' confirm that Jack Dorsey is on the Bitcoin 2026 lineup in Las Vegas, scheduled for April 27–29, 2026, matching 'next week' relative to the April 21, 2026 announcement. The X source 'x post 2046696836547694751' directly contains the quote 'We don't need the banks anymore.' While that quote is not independently repeated on the official event pages I fetched, the supplied announcement itself supports that wording. Taken together, the claim is likely true.
