Cardano founder criticized for failing to deliver on promises

Charles Hoskinson, founder of the Cardano project, accused by some of the participants and investors in the ADA project for his promises of growth on the network, which were ultimately not realized.

This recent discontent between investors and creator demonstrates that the Cardano ecosystem continues to face some challenges in its community.

Hoskinson, like any good seller, always values ​​Cardano and the many improvements the blockchain will receive in the future. However, when those promises are not kept, some investors like to remember that Charles did not honor his commitments.

In one of his tweets last year, Hoskinson predicted that blockchain will have hundreds of assets, thousands of DApps, and tons of cool projects that will keep the community strong.

“Next year, I foresee that Cardano will launch hundreds of assets, thousands of decentralized applications, tons of projects, and various applications and utilities. In 2021, it will be very interesting to watch the growth and development of Cardano. The community is definitely ready to innovate. “

Although the growth of the network does not depend entirely on its creator, many criticize the fact that Cardano’s development team also did not provide the necessary tools to fulfill the promises.

At the same time, a year later, many people reminded Charles that his prediction was not even close to completion. Users remembered a post criticizing that Cardano still does not have smart contracts almost a year later.

“Almost a year later, there are still no smart contracts. I guess this means Cardano could have thousands of DApps without smart contracts? Truly revolutionary technology, you are the visionary Charles. “

Without developing smart contract capability, it is clear that blockchain does not have the ability to have “thousands of decentralized applications” as promised, and this, unfortunately, has a lot of influence on the part of developers.

Even those with ADA and betting on crypto are unhappy with little development in recent months.

“A year later, and we still don’t have: smart contracts, Erc20 converter, hundreds of tokens, thousands of DApps. I have nothing against Charles, I am an advisor to the Cardano project, I have an ADA, and I fully support the project. But people need to understand the network effect that puts ETH 100x ahead of the competition. “

And such promises Charles made not only in tweets. In an interview with the TV channel Crypto Bunter he stated that about 100 projects are interested in moving to Cardano. So far, however, none of these projects seem to have made it out of the planning stage.

This is a problem because, unlike Bitcoin, the price of ADA is heavily influenced by updates to the network, as well as what is promised.

Thus, investors who believed that the project would be technically more valuable in the future end up losing.
