Tech Co-founder Embraces Bitcoin After 'Years of Dabbling'
2 min read
Eoghan McCabe, chairman and co-founder of customer relationships giant Intercom, has announced via Twitter that he has fully embraced Bitcoin.
A number of big-name investors and businessmen have become Bitcoiners in recent months, with the likes of Microstrategy’s Michael Saylor, Twitter’s Jack Dorsey, and billionaire investor Stanley Druckenmiller all getting behind the famed cryptocurrency in recent months. Now, the list is growing again.
“I would like to announce that after years of dabbling I’ve jumped firmly onto the Bitcoin wagon,” McCabe said in a tweet.
I would like to announce that after years of dabbling I’ve jumped firmly onto the #Bitcoin wagon and would now like everyone else to do the same.

McCabe added that he would “now like everyone else to do the same.”
The chairman didn’t specify what convinced him to jump on the Bitcoin bandwagon but recommended an interview between Morgan Creek Digital partner Anthony Pompliano and Parallax Digital CEO Robert Breedlove. Both are passionate Bitcoiners.

At the time of writing, it’s unclear exactly what form jumping on the Bitcoin wagon has taken for McCabe. He has not publicized how much Bitcoin he may have bought, but we know that the Intercom chairman has come on board during a time of significant positive growth for Bitcoin.
Bitcoin’s price is currently hovering at $16,188. This represents a 6.4% increase during the last week, as well as a 37% jump over the last three months. Price action that’s not going unnoticed.
