Charles Hoskinson rants against Ethereum and SBF
Cardano boss Charles Hoskinson has once again shown himself combative on X. One of the triggers was a newly published biography about FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried, who is currently on trial for fraud.

According to Cardano's founder, Cardano enjoys Sam Bankman-Fried "a free pass" in the media. This shows "how deeply corrupt things have become, especially if you have the right friends." Hoskinson did not substantiate this statement.

De 35-year-old also lashed out to his old hobbyhorse, Ethereum. According to Hoskinson, Ethereum copies Cardano's Ouroboros consensus mechanism to get a grip on the problem of centralization.
