Twitter Now Lets All Its Users Create Spaces

Twitter Inc. TWTR now lets any user create Spaces on its platform.

What Happened: The San Francisco-based company announced Thursday that everyone on iOS and Android could now host a conversation on the app.

Why It Matters: Twitter has been adding various features to reach its ambitious goal of growing its daily active user base to 315 million by the end of 2023. Last month, the company rolled out a feature to enable its users to send and receive tips in Bitcoin BTC/USD via the lightning network.

Dorsey, who is also founder and CEO at payments company Square Inc SQ, has been bullish on Bitcoin but has chided other cryptocurrencies, especially Ethereum ETH/USD.

Price Action: Twitter shares closed 0.61% lower at $65.40 a share on Thursday.
