Another point addressed by the CEO was the notion that the Cardano blockchain suffers from heavy congestion, which he dismissed. Hoskinson explained that while there may be congestion on the network at certain times, this generally only leads to delays in transaction settlement and does not pose a significant problem for users to consider.
Projects On Cardano Must Succeed On Their Own
Regarding project funding within the ADA ecosystem, Hoskinson expressed that such practices could be considered unnecessary. He likened this idea to the concept of “bribery,” arguing that it should not be Cardano’s responsibility to finance projects and that the market should determine which projects succeed on the platform.
He also debunked the idea that ADA’s inclusion on other platforms is hindered by its unique programming language. Charles pointed out that many centralized exchanges have already added Cardano to their platforms, demonstrating that the project is accessible and compatible with a variety of infrastructures.
Finally, he emphasized that the ADA blockchain offers incentives for users and supports those who work, build, and develop on it. He reiterated the platform’s commitment to the community and its vision of creating an inclusive, user-oriented ecosystem.
