Cardano News: Hoskinson Warns Criticism Could Drive Builders Away

In Cardano news today, Charles Hoskinson used a recent livestream to argue that Cardano’s long-term success hinges on the applications built atop its infrastructure.

The Cardano founder urged the community and the Cardano Foundation to embrace Midnight and other major ecosystem projects.Hoskinson made the remarks during a livestream titled “Devs versus Builders,” where he addressed criticism surrounding Midnight and its recent strategic changes.

He said Cardano’s purpose extends beyond serving as a smart-contract platform or facilitating ADA transactions, arguing the network creates more value when developers use its infrastructure to build applications that attract real users, customers, and economic activity.

That framing is not new for Hoskinson.
