The Bitcoin-centered conference “The ₿ Word” has been confirmed for this week, as well as entrepreneur Elon Musk’s attendance. 

Musk, the CEO of Tesla, will participate in a live discussion with Square and Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey and Ark Invest founder and CEO Cathie Wood during the conference, which will commence at 12 p.m. on Wednesday, July 21. 

Other presenters at the conference include Steve Lee and Conor Okus from Square Crypto; Hong Fang from OKCoin; Phillip Gradwell from Chainalysis; Dr. Neha Narula from the MIT Digital Currency Initiative; Adam Back from Blockstream; and Sam Korus from ARK Invest. 

Word that Musk would potentially participate in a live chat with the bitcoin-supporting Dorsey emerged late last month, though subsequent developments indicated that The ₿ Word wasn't a done deal until Monday's developments.
