MUST SEE: “Unqualified Opinions” podcast from Messari, “Building Cardano with IOHK CEO Charles Hoskinson”
Have you seen Charles’ recent interview on “Unqualified Opinions” from Messari: “Building Cardano with IOHK CEO Charles Hoskinson”?
There are very few people who have created and co-founded multiple top 20 cryptocurrency. Charles Hoskinson is one of them. In this conversation, Charles details his cryptocurrency and blockchain path, ultimately leading to the creation of Cardano.
Charles also details how he structured Cardano “like a DARPA project” with a deep focus on R&D and why they’re concentrating heavily on development in Africa. He lays out his philosophy and strategy for building a network that will one day no longer be reliant on its founders and how he views the overall competitive landscape. And more!

EMURGO Blog: “What Makes the Cardano Treasury System Special?”
Over the last few years, the entire cryptocurrency and blockchain ecosystem has blossomed and experienced a tremendous level of creativity unseen since the early dot com days. A steady stream of over 12,000 cryptographic related papers has flowed forth from academia since 1996 with many in recent years. Overall, the interest from the mainstream has steadily grown to reflect the increased interest in the blockchain space and Cardano - the first third-generation blockchain to evolve from a scientific philosophy. One of the curiosities regard the nature of Cardano’s native ada digital currency or digital asset and how it compares to the traditional banking & currency system. With the current Cardano Incentivized Testnet in progress, development is marching on towards a mature Cardano blockchain ecosystem.
