Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson is making bold claims about the network amid recent strides. In a live stream on Tuesday, February 18, Hoskinson told followers that the network was now far ahead of the competition. “Our advantage and lead is so significant, they can never catch us,” he enthused.

We can crowdsource any idea, any strategy, and augment it with AI. My lord! We are unstoppable as an ecosystem.
