Cardano Founder Faces Backlash Over “Cancer” Poll: Is Hoskinson Hurting ADA?

Charles Hoskinson, Cardano’s founder, may have misjudged his community’s sentiment when he launched a poll asking if he was “a cancer” to the blockchain. The poll, prompted by recent criticism, backfired spectacularly, revealing a near-even split in opinion and exposing deep divisions within the Cardano ecosystem.

For context, the controversy began when X user “Dclay” posted a critical message questioning Hoskinson’s role in Cardano. The tweet asked if Hoskinson was indeed “the cancer” of Cardano and speculated on what the blockchain might look like without him.

The criticism quickly gained traction within the Cardano community. In response, Hoskinson created a poll on X, asking his followers if he was “a cancer” to Cardano. As of press time, the poll had gathered 50,502 votes, with 52% voting “yes” and 48% voting “no.”

The results, which suggest a slight majority think Cardano might be better off without Hoskinson, have surprised many, prompting his supporters to rush to his defense.

Community Defends Hoskinson

The Cardano community defended Hoskinson, emphasizing his significant contributions to the project. Rick McCracken, a Cardano stake pool operator, remarked that Hoskinson is “obviously not a cancer for Cardano.” However, he acknowledged that Hoskinson can be “highly vocal and abrasive at times.”

Dr. AJ, another Cardano supporter, expressed admiration for Hoskinson, calling him an inspiration and affirming that he is exactly who he portrays himself to be. In parallel, AJ encouraged Hoskinson to remain true to himself, adding, “Just be you. That’s what we need.”

Hoskinson’s Media Relations Under Scrutiny

A Cardano supporter named Matinwinnetou pointed out that Hoskinson’s strong language and lack of “diplomacy” could be contributing to a toxic atmosphere. While acknowledging that Hoskinson’s contributions were essential to Cardano’s success, Matinwinnetou suggested that “enormous delicacy” was needed in handling community relations.

Another voice, Pooltool.io, affirmed Hoskinson’s value but questioned his online communication tactics. While recognizing Hoskinson’s technical expertise, Pooltool.io noted that his online presence often focused on negativity, which could risk alienating followers.
