Controversy between Cardano (ADA) founder Hoskinson & popular crypto influencer Ben Armstrong

On Apr 8, 2024

Charles Hoskinson showed his sadness against popular crypto influencer Ben Armstrong over his bad words regarding the future of the Cardano blockchain.

Charles Hoskinson is the founder of the popular Proof-of-Stake (PoS) crypto blockchain Cardano. Hoskinson always remains active on X (formerly Twitter) to talk about the Cardano blockchain. Usually, he responds against Cardano haters & hits back with real facts about Cardano’s real achievements.

On 7 April 2024, Popular crypto influencer Ben Armstrong aka Bitboy Crypto published a video on Cardano blockchain. He said that Cardano is now more times dead over Bitcoin and also said that institutions won’t invest in Cardano until the locked ADA stake gets unlocked.

Cardano founder Hoskinson responded to the video and said that Benstrong was always friendly to him but he is sad to see that he is now not an ADA investor, as Cardano is dead in his opinion.

Well @BenArmstrongsX was always friendly in person to me. Sad to see him go down this road.

Wish him well and hope for the best. https://t.co/b9lFeO70oe

Ben Armstrong responded to Hoskinson’s tweet and said that he is open to discussing Cardano blockchain to talk about Cardano’s Defi ecosystem on his YouTube Channel.

Hoskinson responded with ending words and said that if you believe that Ada will decline in value or popularity & also you’re saying that if someone thinks Ada is going to fail, then there’s no point in talking further about Cardano.

Sorry, Ben. Once you get on the Ada is going to die train, we have nothing more to discuss about Cryptocurrencies. I wish you good fortune in the years to come.

Ben Armstrong vs Hit network

Since 2018, Armstrong has been running “Bit-Boy Crypto” named YouTube channel as a subsidiary of BJ Investment Holdings, the parent company of Hit Network.

In Aug 2023, Hit Network removed Armstrong from the company.

This difficult decision is a culmination of a prolonged effort to help Ben during his relapse into substance abuse as well as reconcile the emotional, physical and financial damage he has done to the employees of Hit network & the Bitboy Crypto community.

Later Armstrong raised funds from the crypto community to fight against the company. At the time, Armstrong alleged that the company seized his funds. He said that assets seized by the company were registered under the company’s name but belonged to him.
