In a recent development, Charles Hoskinson, the founder of Cardano, has made headlines by alleging that Ethereum has copied Cardano’s project roadmap.
This claim surfaced shortly after Ethereum celebrated its ninth anniversary, reigniting the longstanding competition between the two blockchain platforms.
Hoskinson’s remarks were prompted by a post from Lefteris Karapetsas, founder of the Rotki app, which featured a photo of the attendees at Ethereum’s launch day. Notably absent from the photo was Hoskinson, while prominent figures like Vitalik Buterin and Gavin Wood were present. Hoskinson clarified that he left the Ethereum team in mid-2014 and implied that Ethereum now follows Cardano’s lead in technological developments.
This exchange led to renewed comparisons between Cardano and Ethereum, with some arguing that Ethereum has seen greater success. However, supporters of Cardano were quick to dismiss these claims, suggesting that Ethereum enthusiasts were attempting to provoke Hoskinson for attention.
Despite the controversy, Ethereum has been performing well in the market. Recently launched spot Ethereum ETFs have gained significant traction, hinting at a possible market rally. Ethereum’s staking has also reached new heights, with 28.1% of its total supply now staked, reflecting strong investor confidence. Concurrently, the amount of Ethereum on centralized exchanges has dropped to a five-month low, indicating reduced liquidity on these platforms.
These positive metrics showcase Ethereum’s robust market position, while Cardano continues to maintain its own achievements in the crypto space.
