Innovative cryptocurrency platforms continue to generate heated discussions within the digital asset community. Recently, the spotlight has been on Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson, who didn’t hold back regarding his views on Bitcoin (BTC) and Cardano (ADA).

During a thought-provoking interview with Jason Yanowitz, the co-founder of Blockworks, Hoskinson asserted his belief that ADA has outperformed BTC as a viable investment since its inception, claiming it has consistently delivered superior returns to its investors.

Reflecting on his past, Hoskinson mentioned that he once possessed a whopping 108,000 BTC after the initial launch of Cardano. He noted that had he retained those Bitcoin assets, their value today would be a staggering $12.8 billion.

In contrast, he highlighted Cardano’s market capitalization, which stands at around $30 billion—significantly eclipsing the current worth of his Bitcoin holdings. This, he argues, demonstrates Cardano’s robust growth potential.

Hoskinson estimates that Cardano’s performance indicates it is approximately 2.8 times more advantageous than Bitcoin, further solidifying his stance that ADA represents a better investment opportunity moving forward.

“We are witnessing Cardano’s innovative trajectory, which will only strengthen in the future,” he declared.

“While Bitcoin is expected to evolve into a yield layer bolstered by DeFi, Cardano plans to establish a sustainable ecosystem with annual airdrops of ADA driven by the upcoming Midnight launch model.”

“In fact, Cardano’s future in the DeFi arena is projected to surpass the combined capabilities of Ethereum and Solana by fourfold.”
