• In this article: Charles Hoskinson apologized to competing crypto ecosystems such as Bitcoin, Solana and XRP and called for unity and cooperation in 2025 to advance blockchain to the masses.

Charles admitted that he has had disagreements in the past and called on the #Cardano community to give up old competition for the sake of the industry's development.

His stories include Ethereum's Vitalik Buterin, Bitcoin's maximalists, clashes with XRP supporters and a recent lawsuit over his exclusion from a stablecoin project in Wyoming.

Charles Hoskinson, founder of Cardano and co-creator of #Ethereum , is calling for an end to what he calls petty tribalism in the crypto industry.

In a rare move, Charles has pleaded guilty to competing blockchain communities such as #Bitcoin , Solana and XRP. In a post on X's website, he apologized for his past statements and called for collaboration ahead of what he sees as an important moment for blockchain in 2025.

We invite all of us in the Cardano community to leave comments and opinions about the past and embrace a complete reboot of all ecosystems, he said, admitting that he has been prickly and that competing ecosystems have also criticized Cardano for being horrible and deceitful.

But now, in his opinion, they are rethinking Cardano's technology. Charles says he now has a once-in-a-lifetime chance to adopt blockchain, grow the market into the trillions and influence every home and every government. His journey into blockchain began with Ethereum, where he was part of the founding team. But his tenure was short-lived. Charles wanted Ethereum to adopt a commercial structure, but disagreed with Vitalik Buterin, who favored a non-commercial model.

Because of these disagreements, Charles was expelled from the project in 2014, and since then he has called his departure politically motivated and unfair. After Ethereum, Charles created cardano.

aturally, he criticized Ethereum and called its governance model a "dictatorship" controlled by Buterin.
