In a recent AMA sessionCharles Hoskinson, the founder of Cardano, has openly criticized the XRP community for what he describes as a “relentless and overwhelming campaign” based on misconceptions and falsehoods.
“There is no desire for peace there,” Hoskinson said. “They don’t want peace because they don’t want to acknowledge for a moment that we are talking to each other,” she added.
The long-running conspiracy in question alleges that Ethereum backers may have improperly influenced the SEC’s decision to take legal action against XRP.
No evidence
Throughout his AMA, Hoskinson made repeated calls for a shift towards rational discourse and evidence-based discussions with the XRP community.
“You have no evidence, that,” he asserted.
He also urged Ripple leaders Brad Garlinghouse and David Schwartz to publicly acknowledge that the allegations are unfounded. “I would love to see Brad and David Schwartz come out and physically say that this entire attack on our side is based on a lie,” Hoskinson said, addressing the core of the dispute head-on.
The #ETHGate misunderstanding
Hoskinson has clarified his stance on the #ETHGate controversy. She highlighted that her comments have been seriously misinterpreted by the XRP community. “I never said #ETHGate didn’t happen. I said it doesn’t matter,” she explained, arguing that focusing on this issue is irrelevant and unproductive to the litigation XRP faces against the SEC.
He analyzed conspiracy theories suggesting that the SEC went after XRP due to illicit influence, calling such claims baseless and without evidence to support them.
“It’s very possible that someone bribed the SEC directly or indirectly, who knows, to give Ethereum a free pass… Claiming that they also went after XRP because someone bribed them is a conspiracy, and there is no evidence.” he reiterated.
