A Bitcoin-focused company, BitcoinOS, recently launched a development that can theoretically bridge Bitcoin (BTC) to Cardano (ADA) and other blockchains. A faction of the Bitcoin community, however, is skeptical of the solution, going as far as calling it a “scam.” Finbold reported about it last week to understand how Cardano can tap Bitcoin’s $1.3 trillion liquidity as an L2. In particular, the Bitcoin influencer and podcast host Peter McCormack shared a related post, sounding “SCAM” alarms. He warned his over 500,000 followers, “Cardano wants your Bitcoin as nobody wants Cardano,” calling the project a scam. Despite receiving dozens of informative…

In a wide-ranging discussion, Minneapolis Federal Reserve President Neel Kashkari discussed the Fed’s monetary policy trajectory, the implications of President-elect Donald Trump’s proposed tariffs on China, and his ongoing skepticism toward Bitcoin.
