‘Extreme Accountability’: Meet Charles Hoskinson’s AMA Site, HockSaid

  • Charles Hoskinson announced HoskSaid, a website where users can ask him questions during an AMA session.
  • The Cardano co-founder calls the site an example of extreme accountability needed in the blockchain ecosystem.
  • In its second quarter, Cardano reported impressive growth and increased transactional volume.

Amidst the excitement of an impressive second-quarter report, Charles Hoskinson, co-founder of the Cardano blockchain, announced HoskSaid, a website where users can ask him questions directly. Although Hoskinson clarified that he is not affiliated with the platform, he referred to it as an example of the extreme accountability needed in decentralized communities.

Notably, the platform contains data about Hoskinson dating back to 2018. That includes tweets, public statements, and acts by the co-founder. Hoskinson made this revelation during a live AMA session, saying users can join the platform and ask him questions. However, at the present time, users can only join using their X credentials.

Additionally, Hoskinson mentioned that during his AMAs, he would be picking questions from the platform while also answering questions asked during his live sessions. According to him, the platform shows the existence of a self-sustaining decentralized community that can act on its own. Furthermore, he stated that accountability is what blockchain and web3 are about, adding that it would be better if politicians did the same.

Elsewhere, a quarter-two report by Messari revealed that the Cardano blockchain network experienced significant growth during the quarter. Specifically, the blockchain recorded increased transactional volume, indicating more user activity on the platform. The report also attributed the growth to the introduction of several upgrades executed since the start of the year.

Likewise, the Cardano blockchain also recorded a remarkable rise in its workload, surpassing previous levels. Blocks in the Cardano network can now hold more data, with a 49% surge in blockchain workload compared to previous quarters. However, the blockchain saw a 4% drop in users during the quarter.

Data from CoinMarketCap show that Cardano (ADA) has seen marginal declines since the start of the month. Accordingly, the token has declined by 0.57% in the past seven days and 0.29% in the last 24 hours. The token is currently changing hands at $0.2896.
