I'm just glade to noticed blockchain movement before most people at this point. This will be fun to look back at 5 to 10 years from now. Good luck all!

[@billyferguson5881]

Happy Birthday Cardano!!! Great job to All the guys and girls working on Cardano!!!

[@cryptochartist1482]

I am so happy that I attend that event and I was there during the speech!

[@JuvenileRetarding]

It is moving to see and hear the wisdom being so rightfully outspoken in this particular field that has so much to offer humanity and our home planet Earth. One day we might employ ourselves to clean our oceans and plant forests to shelter wildlife and feed our children. Prayers and blessings to all of us. Peace.

What a joke loll

[@cryptobrahmin]

ø IOHK is autism. The 'Cardano Foundation' sounds nefarious. They need me.

[@johnefan]

I don't really care if ADA goes to zero, for me listening to Charles is worth all the money. He truly is the visionary...

[@sandrstudios]

johnefan lol, so you don’t have an investment in this project or not much of one . Put 10k USD on it like many others have and I but you start caring .

[@artgreg2296]

No offense but for me its totally the contrary. If undoubtedly charles is one of the best spokesmen and visionary in crypto I buy ada for the originality of the technology, the professionalism of the team hoping that the project will live a long time when charles will not be there anymore...

[@sandrstudios]

@@dud3stuff Been in the game since the launch of this project... whats a long term investment? Bitcoin was an idea and free and after two years it was worth 13.00 Cardano has a team of 200 of the worlds smartest people and the price of the coin has mostly gone in revers. By all means I am not selling my 100K+ in ADA, but I would like to start seeing some value in it. To be honest I am also a little jaded that we were originally told that that staking would be in effect in early 2018, then late 2018, then mid 2019, now late 2019... I get delays, but 4 of them?

[@dud3stuff]

@@sandrstudios as long as the scope of the project accounts for a long term platform, then I'm down for waiting. To be fair, most projects are in the red... Which is why it's investing. We are funding a Manhatten project.

@@dud3stuff you have to understand, Charlie has the cash and doesnt need you anymore. Staking wont onlive this year either. It's a kusy fun watching him do research papers and no product with y'alls cash.

[@AngelHernandez-ng6iw]

What an amazing project! We don’t even know how big this is going to be... I can’t think of another person is the crypto sector with this philosophy, knowledge and energy... This is where the world is headed folks!! #CharlesHoskinson #Cardano #TheFutureIsNow

[@KILLtrOTTcity]

I truly believe in the future of Cardano even more than bitcoin,as a currency AND a future store of appreciating value with everything it will accomplish plus staking rewards. Cardano will be used kind of like a currency, it will be tied to the value of products,services and commodities particularly in developing economies who will be joining the global economy like they never before have had the opportunity to.. No longer will the big bully countries like China and the U.S. pay pennies on the dollar for poorer/developing countries resources and products,they will be put on an open GLOBAL market and be sold to the highest bidder because their resources will be tied and implemented to the ADA currency (There's already development, real life deals/partnerships and infrastructure being put in place for this). The implementation of Cardano will truly be a new age industrial revolution and a what emerges from it will be an intergrated global economy like never before. THIS is what cryptocurrencies can and should do and what they were truly meant for imo,(not ONLY to hold onto as a store of value ..) But also as a means for a much more equal playing field for economies from around the world,the ultimate "GLOBAL economy stimulus package"! That is just the tip of the iceberg of the great things that Cardano will accomplish. I know that there's so many haters right now on most altcoins and ADA included just because of price but trust me they are thinking of EVERYTHING to make Cardano future proof: staking,scaling,interoperability, quantum resistance,ect. which is why I truly believe Cardano will be one of the 1-2% of altcoins that actually survive long term and if you survive long enough in the future in this market,VERY good things will happen for the holders of that particular crypto I promise you that! Cardano is coming..,and you've been notified! Good luck on your investments everyone in this space is part of something that will be truly special! :)

[@KILLtrOTTcity]

Charles is probably the most upfront,visible and transparent leader in crypto, that's what you want in a leader! Cardano is coming!

Charles will have a tremendous legacy heralded as a philanthropist and a genius. His money is what is propping this company up and ensuring it gets completed. He could have retired with his half a billion dollars and no one would blame him. Instead, he took this monumental task on. Good for him. Cant wait to see the end of his engineering.

[@brewcity44panthers60]

I've been intrigued by Cardano, but believe it is taking a big risk by doing its "hardening" in academic conferences, instead of in the real world. It will be interesting if the approach pays off in the long run. My bet is, probably not, but who knows

Can Cardano replace the useless and corrupt governments we have? Can we elect people that we want and if they fail to work for the good of the people and not self-interest, we immediately revoke our voting power from them and elect another good person. Because today politics and governments don't work for the people in any country as we see.

I want to buy land in my home country which is extremely corrupt. It is cheaper and safer for me to take USD and convert it there than to send it through traditional money transfer mediums. In an age of digitization, it's extremely frustrating to not be able to send money for free via internet. This must change. This is a real world application that blockchain can and will solve. No one understands it until you experience this problem. This solution is inevitable. I would pay for this technology and so would millions of people.

I don't think he will, his legacy is on the line if he leaves Cardano before it's a clear success. Too many people know about Charles now, if he ever leaves Cardano it will be after it's well established and in good hands moving forward,he won't be able to build a legacy elsewhere and start over,Cardano will be his legacy I'm sure of it.Also the bottom line is Cardano is bigger than just Charles Hoskinson.
