By Tobi LobaThe CEO of Input Output HK (IOHK), Charles Hoskinson, has called on Jack Dorsey, the CEO of the popular Microblogging platform Twitter, to get his account verified, in order to stop scammers that impersonate him on a daily basis.
Hoskinson made this call to Jack Dorsey in reaction to a tweet shared a while ago, by the founder and CEO of Avanti Bank & Trust, Caitlin Long, about her recently verified Twitter account.
The founder of Cardano (ADA) thinks his Twitter account is overdue for verification, considering his personality in the crypto community and the rate some desperate scammers target unsuspecting community members using his name.
Hoskinson believes that the blue checkmark could reduce daily scams perpetrated by the people impersonating him on the social platform. So, he tagged Jack Dorsey in the tweet for his direct attention and consideration.
Charles Hoskinson shared this, “Jack I thought you guys stopped giving out blue check marks? Come on Jack this is ridiculous. People impersonate me on a daily basis to scam others.”

The result of the poll widely favored the founder of Cardano (ADA) as indicated above. He gained over 60% of the total number of votes.
However, the sample size is not large enough to speak the minds of all the members of the crypto community, but the result cannot be thrown underfoot, considering Charles Hoskinson’s way of carrying the Cardano community along year-to-date.
