In a recent AMA, Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson confirmed BitBoy‘s shift in stance against Cardano, attributing it to the project’s refusal to pay him, following BitBoy’s harsh criticisms of ADA.
To provide context, a viewer indicated that BitBoy is no longer a devotee of Hoskinson during the most recent episode of his AMA (Ask Me Anything) session. This is in response to the numerous criticisms BitBoy has leveled against Cardano, which include the description of its native token, ADA, as “dead.”
In response, Hoskinson verified the assertion, emphasizing that BitBoy has been on the opposite side of the ark since the Cardano ecosystem team “did not give him money.”
The Founder of Cardano is Being Challenged to a Fight by BitBoy.
As anticipated, BitBoy did not take Hoskinson’s comment casually, and he openly challenged him to a fight.
“Give the people the fight they desire, @IOHK_Charles—you and me.” The crypto influencer made the comment, “In the Pit.”
Despite the fact that Hoskinson is five years elder, BitBoy issued this challenge. The influencer maintains that he harbors no animosity toward Cardano enthusiasts or Hoskinson. Nevertheless, he opined that a high-profile bout between him and Hoskinson would be a spectacular event for the bull run.
Hoskinson Responds
Reacting, the Cardano founder did not publicly approve or decline BitBoy’s request for a pit fight. Nevertheless, he maintained that the obstacle is comparable to confronting an enraged animal.
BitBoy’s Unanticipated Transition to Cardano
It is important to note that BitBoy was previously optimistic about Cardano, predicting that the price of ADA could increase to $11 during the 2024/2025 season.
The crypto influencer declared that “ADA is dead” three months later, citing that the coin’s performance is inferior to that of other digital assets such as Toncoin (TON) and Solana (SOL).
Hoskinson declared that he would never engage in a conversation with BitBoy regarding crypto-related matters following his assertion. BitBoy maintained his position regarding Cardano last month, emphasizing that the asset is no longer relevant to institutional investors.
He believed that the institutional allure of Cardano would ultimately result in the demise of ADA as a legitimate investment.
Hoskinson responded by asserting that the initial objective of crypto was to replace institutions rather than to obtain their approval. As a result, he sarcastically suggested that he might learn to play the banjo in order to appease BitBoy.
