Just another wise person and a good businessman who knows where the financial market will go and how to profit from it.
"Square", now "Block", is a company that deals with payments, but mostly with cards payments. I think one of his ideas might just be to improve card payments by introducing blockchain.

Well, bitcoin is finance in the first place, so it fits their core business really really well.

I really wouldn't limit their company to only payments though; let's not forget that Square/Block now owns Tidal, a Spotify competitor. Nothing's really preventing them from going off-course.

It's actually quite surprising that Jack Dorsey has resigned from twitter,

not sure anyone has heard but,

I resigned from Twitter

while previously planning (perhaps already active) adding a btc tip feature which entices the community.

Currently, Jack wants to focus on his platform, "Square" which has also been renamed to "Blocks" (source), a parent platform that includes subsidiary platforms including Square itself and several new platforms that are all financial services. This is nothing but similar to Zuck's steps to change the name Facebook to Meta as the parent platform.

With his new brand name, it's clear that Jack wants to focus more on blockchain space. Will Jack be the next person to influence the global economy, especially bitcoin, to rival Elon's influence as the richest man? Keep in mind that Jack is very supportive of bitcoin, and I don't think he's going to create his own version of a new cryptocurrency.

I don't think it's surprising. Twitter is....well Twitter. You can add / tweak / modify things but it's not going to change that much.
Creating Block and putting all those businesses under it allows him to expand a bunch of things in a bunch of different ways without risking doing damage to what Twitter is.
And it allows him to step back from it and do the blockchain & financial stuff.
