QuickBooks Capital Originates $1.3B in Latest Fiscal Quarter
December 10, 2025Intuit’s QuickBooks Capital is growing tremendously. The company originated $1.3B in term loans to small businesses for the fiscal quarter ending October 31, 2025, a 100% increase over the same period last year.
For the company’s previous full 2025 fiscal year which ended on July 31, 2025, the company had originated $3.5B in term loans, up from $1.8B in FY 2024. The figures put them near the top of all online small business lenders that deBanked tracks.
Intuit hardly mentions its term loan business in its quarterly earnings since other business lines including the QuickBooks software, TurboTax, and Mailchimp dominate. The term loans are marketed inside the QuickBooks software in a style of marketing known as embedded lending. The loans are technically issued by bank partners and Intuit buys the loans back from them.

Jack Dorsey Enters His Final Words on the Satoshi Nakamoto Identity Question
November 23, 2025During Block’s November 19, 2025 company Investor Day presentations, Block Head (CEO) Jack Dorsey was asked by Jeff Cantwell, a Senior Equity Analyst at Seaport Research Partners, if he was actually Satoshi Nakamoto, the pseudonymous creator of Bitcoin. The question was likely prompted by the internet theory circulating that he was but it could also have been borne out of Block’s strong Bitcoin focus.
Dorsey responded with his final answer on the matter as quoted though this exchange below:
Jeff Cantwell: “Jack, this is probably the most important question you’ll ever get asked from the sell side, are you Satoshi Nakamoto?”
Jack Dorsey: “On the Satoshi question, the most beautiful thing about Bitcoin is that question does not matter at all anymore. It’s an open protocol taken over by a community that wants to see an alternative to an option. And if it was important to Satoshi, there’s a simple way they can prove who they are. So we’ll wait for that day.”

Coindesk Podcast Explores Sean Murray’s Jack Dorsey Theory on Satoshi Nakamoto
November 20, 2025A new one-hour long video podcast published by Coindesk explores Sean Murray’s theory that Jack Dorsey is Satoshi Nakamoto, the creator of Bitcoin.
Murray’s last major tweet linking the clues together, long after originally theorizing it in February 2024, can be read here:
THE NEWEST WHY JACK DORSEY IS SATOSHI NAKAMOTO
C++ for Bitcoin source code
Now confirmed Jack coded in C++ as far back as mid-90sC in the White Paper
Now confirmed Jack coded in C as far back as mid-90s.Satoshi pseudonym
"Satoshi" was the first tweet Jack's best friend…— Seán Murray (@financeguy74) August 2, 2025
One prominent Bitcoin developer that attempted to debunk the theory apparently did not consider a world in which Dorsey could post to the internet from a smart phone. Murray debunked his two attempts to debunk it here and here.
The podcasters did not contact Murray when making it.
