Charles Hoskinson Burns 900 Billion Charles Tokens Created in His Honor

Charles Hoskinson Burns 900 Billion Charles Tokens Created in His Honor

Founder Cardano Charles Hoskinson destroyed 900 billion Charles tokens created in his honor by an unknown member of the crypto community. A certain user created the Charles crypto asset without notifying Hoskinson and sent him most of the tokens to his wallet.

According to Hoskinson, the creator of Charles tokens also brought them to the cryptocurrency market, and several traders began trading them for millions of dollars.

Once Hoskinson became aware of this, he created a burn address for the newly minted asset and sent all 900 billion tokens there.

Some cryptocurrency advocates see Hoskinson's actions as a testament to his integrity and unwillingness to promote random crypto projects without a clearly defined utility. Cardano , of course, is a different matter.

Others saw his move as an attempt to save his reputation, especially since information is circulating online that he may be offered a post in Donald Trump's administration.

The situation with Charles Hoskinson once again confirms the general trend in the crypto industry - unknown users use the popularity of famous people to create digital assets in order to make a fortune on them.
