Cardano Founder Turns Down Interview With HEX CEO Richard Hart

The creator of Cardano declined an interview with the head of the HEX cryptocurrency company, Richard Hart, due to his criticism of the Cardano blockchain in the past.

It all started when YouTuber Ben Armstrong, also known as Bitboy Crypto, invited the founders of Cardano and HEX to meet to discuss the possibilities of blockchain and cryptocurrencies. However, Charles Hoskinson vehemently refused to participate in the discussion, tweeting that Richard Heart had repeatedly criticized Cardano and insulted him. Hoskinson sees no point in these conversations, does not want to waste time on them and does not want to have anything to do with Hart.

Richard Hart replied that he did not remember when he publicly insulted Hoskinson. On the contrary, he appreciates the efforts of the founder of Cardano, who spoke before the US Congress in June about the regulation of the cryptocurrency industry. Hart assured that he agreed with Hoskinson on most issues. However, it is worth mentioning that in March 2021, Hart is indeed
joked over the Cardano developers for the slow launch of smart contracts. In July of that year, Hart
named the Cardano blockchain is a “complete failure”.

However, many Twitter users feel that these two powerful figures in the cryptocurrency industry should have a conversation despite their personal animosity. Some enthusiasts wrote that they were looking forward to the interview, which would be even more valuable and interesting if the opinions of the two opponents differ.

This is not the first time Hoskinson has fought back against Cardano. In June, he argued with the developers of Solana, stating that it is better to proceed slowly and carefully than to let users down with repeated network failures.
