Ah, the tempestuous world of cryptocurrency, where fortunes rise and fall with the whims of men and the caprices of markets. Charles Hoskinson, the venerable founder of Cardano, has taken to the airwaves with a fervor that would make even the most impassioned Russian novelist blush. In an interview that could only be described as a dramatic soliloquy, he has cast his gaze upon the Trump administrationās crypto policies, and lo, he finds them wanting.
With a wit as sharp as a winterās frost and a sarcasm as biting as a Moscow breeze, Hoskinson has aimed his barbs directly at David Sacks, the so-called āczarā of cryptocurrency. āIf the bill does not pass this quarter,ā he declares, āthen Sacks must resign. For what is a czar without his crown of achievements? A mere jester in the court of bureaucracy.ā
- Hoskinson warns that failure to pass the US Digital Asset Market Clarity Act this quarter would be a stain upon Sacksās tenure, a mark of failure as indelible as a peasantās mud on a noblemanās boots. š§¹
- He labels the Official Trump memecoin ācatastrophic,ā a folly so great it could only be conceived in the mind of a man who mistakes chaos for governance. š¤”
- Once a Trump booster, Hoskinson now stands at a distance, his skepticism as palpable as the silence after a thunderclap. š©ļø
Speaking on The Wolf of All Streets Podcast, Hoskinsonās words carried the weight of a man who has seen the promise of crypto dimmed by the folly of men. āThis is the make or break year,ā he intoned, his voice heavy with the gravitas of a prophet foretelling doom. āIf Sacks cannot deliver, then he must step aside, for the industry cannot afford his failures.ā
āIf it doesnāt pass this quarter, I think David Sacks should resign. Heās utterly failed us as an industry. If youāre the czar and youāre in charge of this whole thing, Iāve got to judge you by your track record.ā

Hoskinsonās critique extends beyond Sacks to the very heart of the Trump administrationās crypto ventures. The TRUMP memecoin, he declares, is a ācatastrophe,ā a spectacle so absurd it threatens to undermine the entire industry. āAnd the problem is Trumpās nameās on it,ā he laments. āHow can one escape the shadow of such a name? It clings like a stubborn stain.ā
Sacks, appointed with great fanfare in December 2024, has found himself under scrutiny not only from Hoskinson but also from the likes of Sen. Elizabeth Warren, who has raised concerns about his influence and term limits. Ah, the irony! A czar beset by critics from all sides, his throne as precarious as a house of cards in a storm. šŖļø
Another penny drops
Once a fervent supporter of Trump, Hoskinsonās enthusiasm has cooled like a neglected samovar. His skepticism grows as the crypto market falters, Cardanoās native token, ADA, plummeting nearly 60% over the past year. Behold, the chart below, a testament to the fickle nature of fortune. š

Hoskinson claims to have lost over $2.5 billion in four years, a sum so vast it boggles the mind. He lays the blame squarely at the feet of government intervention, which has turned the market from bullish to bearish with the swiftness of a Russian winter. āļø
And he is not alone in his disillusionment. The crypto industryās honeymoon with Trump 2.0 has ended, and the receipts are being scrutinized with a critical eye. Pro-crypto executive orders and regulatory rollbacks have been overshadowed by chaos and controversy. Trumpās trade wars, his software tariffs, and his ill-fated Strategic Bitcoin Reserve have left the industry reeling. Even the much-hyped $TRUMP memecoin has become a symbol of the administrationās missteps, freezing bipartisan stablecoin legislation in its tracks. š§
The administration may still boast crypto-friendly figures like SEC Chair Paul Atkins, but the first year of Trumpās second term has been a white-knuckle ride-volatile, politically messy, and increasingly unpopular with the very industry that once cheered it on. Ah, the irony of it all! A czar without a crown, a market without direction, and a founder left to pick up the pieces. š
