Hoskinson’s Previous Statement
The Co-Founder of Cardano, Charles Hoskinson, previously said about Cardano’s Vasil hard fork, which is expected on September 22, 2022. It may bring Cardano a little closer to fulfilling its ambitions.
As Hoskinson expressed his thoughts and said, “It’s becoming more clear that the distance between us and everyone else is growing. We built Cardano to be the financial operating system of the world. We built it to bank the unbanked. We built it as a community to give economic identity to those who don’t have it so we can have one global fair marketplace. It’s a crazy mission, and it feels vast in scope but with Vasil coming on September 22nd, it feels that much more achievable.”
He also added that when the hard fork is completed, Cardano will be able to evolve as an ecosystem and become more portable, useful and scalable.
He further shared his plans related to Cardano in 2023 and said that “A lot of CIPs (Cardano Improvement Proposals) are coming. Some CIPs are related to Voltaire and governance. Some CIPs [are] related to Basho and scalability, and there’s a lot of cleanup that needs to be done as we hand it over from one steward role to a members-based organization, and then participate with you guys in that capacity. So that’s what 2023 is really about.”
