Cardano’s Hoskinson Takes a Swing at People Calling Cardano a Cult

Cardano and Charles Hoskinson have been having some difficulties as a result of the backlash he has received for his contingent staking proposal. Hoskinson faced quite some criticism, as some of the critics didn’t agree with the new staking proposal.

Wanted to drop a note here, which might be my final tweet, but really not sure tbh as I tend to come back from time to time. (Life outside of twitter is pretty good though). I’ve stopped tweeting for a bit, mostly on account of the CS drama and wanted to share some quick thoughts

ADA Whale, an ardent Cardano supporter, recently addressed their disagreement with the contingent staking proposal and stated that they are taking time off of Twitter to stay away from the CS drama. Anonymous Twitter user Barron Wuffett replied to ADA Whale’s tweet, stating that he would pick ADA Whale to represent the vision and the community over Hoskinson every time.

Hoskinson, however, didn’t keep quiet about the ongoing criticisms. He took to his Twitter account to address all the people who called Cardano a cult. He also mentioned that CS isn’t even at the CPI stage and is an optional hypothetical feature.

And the people who hate Cardano call it a cult. Seems pretty grown up to me. CS is an optional hypothetical feature that isn't even at the CIP stage, and we have this rhetoric discounting the last seven years of my life. It's a bittersweet thing watching an ecosystem grow https://t.co/A8XJBMiUBF
