Jay-Z is all for financial freedom. Since coming into the game, he’s been a strong advocate of empowering rappers to strive for generational wealth. Hov understands the importance of financial literacy, and now he will teach others.
Jay-Z and former Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey teamed up to announce the launch of Bitcoin Academy on Thursday. The Bitcoin Academy is a free financial education program for Marcy Houses residents. The same project houses where Jay-Z grew up. Dorsey spoke on the purpose of the Bitcoin Academy and how it will improve the community’s economy in the future.
Dorsey and Jay-Z are also long-time business partners. In early 2021, Dorsey agreed to pay $300 million for Tidal, the music streaming service owned by the rapper. In return, Jay-Z got a seat on Block’s board of directors as part of the deal.
