in a recent video titled “Birthday Reflections”, Charles Hoskinson, founder of blockchain platform Cardano has said that he will not be retiring any time soon. He feels the stakes are high, so leaving the company now is not the right choice.
The 35-year-old founder condemned the activities of trolls and the constant attacks he is receiving lately on social networks. While he admits that it is frustrating for him when people lie about Cardano’s progress, Charles is reluctant to throw in the towel at the moment and will continue to do so as long as there is something to be gained.
Recently, Charles repurposed the Ethereum Classic verified Twitter page to that of the Ergo proof-of-work network. His seizure of the account that has served the Ethereum Classic community since 2016 was met with condemnation by many in the crypto Twitter community. Many believed that the 600k Twitter handle belonged to the community and that Charles was just a custodian.
Furthermore, the head of Cardano publicly severed ties with the XRP community after news of the fight with Ethereum Classic circulated. The outspoken critic has been the target of many XRP coin supporters. According to his tweets, these XRP trolls continued to harass him without provocation, forcing him to block most of them because he says he is done.
The move sparked backlash in the Twitter crypto community with some users urging the Cardano boss not to stereotype the XRP community based on the actions of a select few.
Meanwhile, the founder of Cardano has said that Blockchain technology could revolutionize government structures from archaic to modern processes. With the recent video, it is evident that Charles is in no rush to join other senior executives at cryptocurrency firms who have retired or given up their positions to pursue other possibilities.
In September, Jesse Powell, co-founder of crypto exchange Kraken, resigned as CEO and was replaced by the firm’s COO Dave Ripley. Furthermore, Alexander Höptner has taken over as CEO of BitMEX Exchange after Authur Hayes handed in his resignation last month.
