Hoskinson Predicts Cardano Growth Could Outpace Bitcoin Stability
Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson discusses Cardano’s flexibility, governance, and potential to outperform Bitcoin due to its adaptability and innovative approach.
In a recent YouTube video, Charles Hoskinson, the founder of Cardano, laid out his vision for why Cardano could eventually surpass Bitcoin.
Hoskinson attributes this potential to Cardano’s flexibility, decentralization and effective governance, comparing its adaptability to the rigidity of companies like BlackBerry, which failed to evolve and ended up becoming obsolete.

He also argues that the only value proposition Bitcoin has is because it is big and successful. Last month, the founder of Cardano asserted that Bitcoin cannot survive without the broader crypto market. He argued that BTC could be replaced by another “digital gold” with similar properties.
Flexibility and Governance as Key Differentiators
Hoskinson highlights Cardano’s ability to absorb new technologies and adapt to new competitive realities as a crucial factor in its potential success. He argues that while Bitcoin can be compared to gold, Cardano’s focus on first principles thinking, Edinburgh decentralizationit measures decentralization and on-chain governance sets it apart.
The industry leader stresses that good governance is vital to long-term success, citing examples from the technology industry where poor governance has led to the loss of market share for companies like Microsoft. Cardano’s approach, he believes, empowers individuals and communities to build and launch new projects, contributing to a thriving ecosystem.
Cardano’s resilience and upcoming milestones
Hoskinson too addressed skepticism surrounding the project recently, stating that Cardano is here to stay amidst widespread fear, uncertainty, and doubt (FUD). He pointed out the significant disconnect between Cardano’s actual progress and the representation of crypto influencers and the media.
Notably, Cardano is on the verge of a major milestone with the upcoming Chang hard fork, scheduled for this quarter. This fork will usher in a new era of governance for Cardano, the result of years of rigorous testing and community participation.
Additionally, the Cardano community is experiencing rapid growth in decentralized applications (dApps), indicating a thriving ecosystem gaining traction among developers and users.
