#CardanoDebate

Charles Hoskinson Orders Comprehensive Audit of IOG Amidst Allegations of Misuse of 600 Million ADA. The controversy began when members of the Cardano community accused IOG - the company behind Cardano - of misusing 318 million ADA tokens. These tokens were unclaimed after Cardano's ICO in 2017 and became unspendable after the network's Shelley upgrade in 2020, leading Cardano to complete decentralization. Hoskinson referred to the individuals as 'Personal Attacks.' Hoskinson was chosen as the individual responsible for the accusations and expressed emotional distress over the situation. He is considering transferring control of his social media accounts to a group. This is not the first time he has considered stepping back—earlier controversies, including one involving the meme coin WALDE, had him contemplating similar actions.
