Charles Hoskinson, co-founder of Input Output Global (IOHK) and the Cardano blockchain initiative, recently expressed his frustration in a video over the U.S. regulator’s decision to categorize the cryptocurrency cardano as a security. He’s perplexed and critical about the exemption of bitcoin from being tagged as a security, mocking the situation as a “pathetic joke” and pointing out the apparent free pass granted to “Team Orange.”
Hoskinson, in the video, questions the absence of expectation of profit among fervent bitcoin supporters, known as the “Orange pill moon boys.” He criticizes the perceived decentralization of Bitcoin, noting that subpoenaing or targeting a few entities could potentially lead to a 51% attack on the network due to the nature of its hashpower distribution. He lambasts this oversight as a glaring, “pathetic f***ing joke.”
IOHK_Charles it's very simple: Bitcoin did not do an ICO, most people thought it had no value, it was mined from zero, it is decentralised, there is no CEO, ICO warchested "foundation", incorporation etc. so cardano, eth etc clearly pas howey, Bitcoin is a commodity and does not
CompanyFoundation somehow don't see the similarity?
