In a straightforward response, Hoskinson pointed out that there is no significant reason for Bitcoin to remain valuable because it has no technological advantages. He added that Bitcoin has remained without any notable development compared to other digital currencies.

It can be recalled that Cardano (ADA) has been entering into phases of development over the past two years in order to remain competitive in the smart contract ecosystem.
