- Charles Hoskinson praises Sui and believes it outperforms Solana.
- Concerns about Solana’s centralization develop in response to criticisms.
In a recent interview, Charles Hoskinson, the founder of Cardano, again criticized Solana, claiming that Sui is the blockchain Solana should have strived toward. He also mentioned that Solana is not the best option among top-layer 1 blockchains. While appreciating Sui’s network and recognizing the accomplishments of its early contributors, especially George Danezis, Hoskinson remains a firm believer that Cardano is the superior blockchain.
This is not the first time Hoskinson has criticized Solana. Earlier this year, he questioned the network’s utility despite its outstanding environment. He also humorously addressed Solana’s February outage, claiming that developers had to restart the network. Furthermore, he has accused Solana of favoring marketing over actual value, increasing his criticism.
Hoskinson’s latest remarks come amid a surge of interest in Sui. SUI, the blockchain’s native token, has witnessed an amazing 140% growth in value in the last month, with many anticipating that a new all-time high is on the way. This increased interest is most likely owing to beliefs that Sui represents a more promising alternative to Solana.
Growing Concerns Over Solana Centralization
Hoskinson’s opinion is not unusual it reflects the thoughts stated by others in the space. Former NSA surveillance contractor Edward Snowden recently claimed that Solana is centralized, a major issue that might threaten network-based programs if regulatory scrutiny arises. This critique significantly destroys Solana’s reputation and strengthens the case for alternatives such as Cardano and Sui.
Despite admiring Sui, Hoskinson remains convinced that Cardano offers a superior strategy. He highlights Cardano’s decentralized governance and impressive future, including the imminent Chang Hard Fork upgrade, as examples of its supremacy. Hoskinson believes Cardano’s commitment to decentralization and long-term sustainability sets it apart from other blockchains.
As competition among blockchain platforms heats up, the argument over which network will emerge as the dominant player persists. While Cardano and Sui receive a lot of attention, Solana’s future is uncertain. The latest critiques from Hoskinson and Snowden raise major questions about the network’s long-term viability.
As all this emerges, the three coins are trading persistently in green, and at the time of writing, Solana is trading at $149, upward 2.79%, Cardano is trading at $0.3955, up 2.06%, and finally, SUI is dealing at $2.08, raised to 17.88% in the previous 24 hours, according to CMC.
