The post Charles Hoskinson Says Cardano Will ‘Break the Internet’; NBA Legend Scottie Pippen Reacts appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News
Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson has yet again captured the crypto community’s attention with a bold statement.
In a recent X post he declared, “Cardano is going to break the internet,” sparking debate and widespread discussion across social media. His statement also drew reactions from notable figures outside the crypto world.
NBA legend, Scottie Pippen also reacted to the tweet saying “BULLish”.
Hoskinson’s statement was met with a mix of criticism and support. One of the users noted that “Cardano can’t even break resistance,” while another pointed out that despite a huge community and $14.8B market cap, the price is still 80% below its all-time high. “Breaking the internet needs real dApp traction,” the user added.
Others defended Hoskinson, explaining that he was referring to real technology, and not price movements. He emphasized that what he is building is useful and the technology is going to be utilized everywhere.
Cardano’s Ecosystem Upgrades
Hoskinson recently revealed that Cardano has launched a “follow-the-sun” development model to fast-track the Ouroboros Leios upgrade. This approach allows teams across different time zones to work in shifts, keeping development running around the clock.
