‘Where’s The Scam?’ Cardano Founder Slams Critics

In an emotionally charged livestream, Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson responded to escalating accusations of academic misconduct and broader claims that the project is a scam. The 36-minute stream, directly countered critics while providing a detailed defense of Cardano’s scientific foundation, its progress over the last decade, and his personal contributions to the blockchain industry.

The controversy started around Hoskinson’s co-authorship of a recent interdisciplinary academic paper involving a sea salvage expedition off Papua New Guinea. Critics have accused Hoskinson of improperly buying authorship on the paper—allegations he described as “unhinged” and rooted in personal vendettas rather than fact.
