At Twitter, he failed to integrate key acquisitions like Periscope or Vine, which were squandered despite their cultural relevance. His laissez-faire, remote-first leadership style fostered a complacent, bloated culture that lacked urgency and innovation. Across Block’s portfolio—Cash App, Square, and Tidal—product velocity has lagged noticeably behind peers, with incremental updates and missed opportunities while competitors push out major features, global expansions, and ecosystem plays at a far faster pace.

Quote from shareholder from today. @jack
$XYZ – “Show, don’t tell”
Hey @jack – that’s your motto. Your philosophy.
You’ve shown us a lot.
You’ve shown that you are one of the greatest 0-to-1 founder of our time.
A true visionary. A technologist. A builder.
There will be dozens of books written about you – and rightly so.
You’ve also shown that you’re one of the GOATs in 1-to-10 entrepreneur.
In the history modern markets, only two (!) persons have founded two $10B+ companies from scratch:
#1 – Elon Musk, with Tesla and SpaceX
#2 – you @jack , with Twitter and Block
You will be in the history books.
But what you’ve shown over the last 10 years is hard to ignore.
You’ve shown that you are a mediocre 10-to-100 executive.
I'm sorry, but that’s the truth.
The chart says it all. It’s the ultimate distillation of the performance of you and your handpicked executives.
The market is “showing” you. How long will you ignore it?
If this continues, your legacy will still be that of a visionary. But also of someone who held on too long. Blinded by conviction. Too stubborn to step aside.
The history books are filled with those, too.
It’s time to pass the torch.

First you need an App that is a Bank which CashApp is not. Also very wrong to target teens for banking. Here is why, teens don’t have much money and when they get money they will want a bank! So cater to teen now and when they get money watch them move to SOFI for their loans and to Robinhood for their credit card and brokerage and to Coinbase for their crypto needs. It is wild that @jack thinks CashApp can be a bank w/o offering credit cards, car loans, and mortgages. Just download SOFI or use a Chase Sapphire Reserve. #bitcoin #btc #jackdorseyislazy

Let someone else drive the company, someone that has a spirit of competition and like to win? Giving product to a bunch of people working from home and phoning it in has led to your products falling behind competition in every dimension. I know you’re excited about codename goose but look at what Meta and X are doing, lol…. get out of bed!

nostr:npub1sg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q0uf63m let CashApp and Square languish and it is a disgrace. Most people at block phone it in and don’t give two shits about product. Why post on Nostr about anything when you can’t even get your own house in order?
