Cardano Founder: No Need to Strike Deal with Trump, Real Focus Is Legislation Bringing Cryptocurrency Regulatory Clarity

BlockBeats News, April 18th, according to DLNews, Cardano (ADA) founder Charles Hoskinson responded to not being invited to the White House crypto roundtable meeting, stating "There's no need to make a deal with Trump." Hoskinson said that the current crypto policy reform being pushed by the United States should focus on a "sustainable, long-term framework," rather than being attached to short-term political figures. During the White House cryptocurrency summit, Trump met with crypto executives including Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong, MicroStrategy Chairman Michael Saylor, Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse to discuss digital asset regulation, but Cardano (ADA) founder Charles Hoskinson was not invited.

Hoskinson emphasized that even if Trump issued a crypto executive order, established a Bitcoin Strategic Reserve, and appointed crypto-friendly individuals to lead the SEC during his tenure, what truly matters is the regulatory stability brought by legislation. "Facing the current policy volatility in the United States, Trump governs the country like a startup, but this also highlights the necessity of establishing decentralized systems such as blockchain, where the only choice is blockchain."
