Cardano (ADA) Founder Charles Hoskinson Talks About the Future of the Altcoin
Charles Hoskinson, the founder of Cardano, one of the largest altcoins in the world, spoke about the future of the coin.
Cardano (ADA) founder Charles Hoskinson has reiterated his commitment to the platform’s original roadmap as the ADA blockchain ecosystem transitions into the Voltaire Age.
Speaking about his decade-long journey with Cardano, Hoskinson said that they aim to ensure a smooth transition to a fully decentralized, community-driven ecosystem.
Reflecting on the past decade, Hoskinson said:
“I have spent ten years of my life on Cardano as of 2025. Many mistakes were made but I never crossed the line to take money from the community or deviated from the original roadmap.”
With the recent launch of the Chang hard fork upgrade, ADA is now controlled by community members. Hoskinson described his latest mission as removing obstacles to this transition and ensuring that no individual or entity disrupts the process.
The Voltaire Era is the final phase on Cardano’s roadmap, focusing on full decentralization and community-driven governance. A critical step in this transition is the approval of the budget and bylaws, which Hoskinson believes are crucial to the project’s success.
But there are obstacles. Insiders have raised concerns about the timeline, accusing the Cardano Foundation of delaying the approval process. Hoskinson insisted that these plans should be approved by next year:
“This is my mission for the last ten years, and I will fulfill it, no matter what the personal, economic or professional consequences.”
Despite the challenges, Hoskinson is optimistic about Cardano’s future and predicts 2025 will be its best year yet.
