Keep seeing these fake lists going around- Eleanor has the most accurate list. I know of two more attendees, both Bitcoiners. I think total attendance is around 20 but 🤷‍♂️ https://t.co/FV37ENmqPO

No Invitation for Cardano Founder Hoskinson

Charles Hoskinson, the founder of Cardano blockchain, didn’t get any invitation to join this crypto summit.
A report by Unchained confirmed that a White House source informed that Hoskinson was not invited to the summit, and also Cardano has not participated in policy discussions or met with the administration.

It is worth it to note that Cardano founder Hoskinson previously hinted that he would attend a fundraising dinner for the pro-crypto PAC MAGA Inc., but here, the White House source stated he was not invited.

This is really very bad news for Cardano blockchain lovers, and obviously, many Crypto X users opposed such partiality with Cardano.

It is worth it to note that Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse also didn’t receive any invitation to join the White House Crypto Summit. This information was confirmed by Bitcoin Magazine CEO Bailey.

Not that I’ve seen but idk
