Charles Hoskinson, the founder of Cardano (ADA), spoke in a recent YouTube address from Colorado about the increasing decentralization of Cardano. He emphasized the progress of the project despite criticism and highlighted that Cardano is becoming more decentralized and influential every day. Hoskinson believes that stronger decentralization may become institutionalized within cryptocurrency regulation, with decentralization metrics potentially becoming a core component of regulatory standards. He warned of a possible regulatory divide where more centralized digital assets could face adversity under the law and stressed the importance of self-sovereignty in the cryptocurrency space.
