For individual investors who are looking for the right time to invest in Bitcoin, you should take notice of this endorsement of Bitcoin by Jack Dorsey and Steve Wozniak. When Bitcoin starts to get adopted by major business platforms, and especially payment processing platforms, it makes Bitcoin an integral part of their business model.
