Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson has hinted at partnering with Bitcoin Cash (BCH).
On May 4th, Hoskinson posted a poll on We asked them what they thought about improving performance using technologies such as NIPoPoW), and Ergo technology.
In Hoskinson’s opinion, such upgrades could make BCH the “fastest and most useful” proof-of-work chain.
At the time of writing, over 11,800 votes had been cast, with six days left to vote. Approximately 66% of voters want the Bitcoin Cash and Cardano partnership to become a reality.
The day before conducting the poll, Hoskinson asked X, giving members of the Bitcoin Cash community a clue as to what’s going on on the development side of BCH and some of the network’s short-term priorities. I asked him to do it.
Hoskinson’s public interest in BCH came on the heels of his spat with MicroStrategy chairman and Bitcoin (BTC) maximalist Michael Saylor.
The disagreement comes after Saylor said in the summer that altcoins such as Cardano, Solana (SOL), Ripple (XRP), and BNB would be classified as unregistered securities by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). .
Saylor also reportedly argued that such altcoins will never find acceptance on Wall Street like Bitcoin, following the SEC’s approval of a spot Bitcoin ETF in January.
Hoskinson hit back at Saylor with X, making it clear that Cardano can handle whatever happens. The Cardano founder sarcastically suggested that Bitcoin maximalists tend to look down on all other cryptocurrencies, viewing them as “illegal and fraudulent.”
Bitcoin Cash has arrived existence In 2017, after a long and sometimes heated debate within the Bitcoin community about how to scale the blockchain.
Members of the Bitcoin community consider the cryptocurrency to be “digital gold” and emphasize its security and decentralization. They are less concerned about potentially high fees or restrictions on using Bitcoin for payments.
Bitcoin Cash proponents, on the other hand, see their project primarily as a digital cash. They believe that BCH can compete effectively in payments without compromising its core characteristics and principles.
