Charles Hoskinson, founder of Cardano, warns that attempts to 'steal' or forcibly freeze Satoshi Nakamoto's Bitcoin holdings to solve quantum security issues could split Bitcoin's ecosystem and cause catastrophic economic damage. He contrasts this with Cardano's robust on-chain governance system, which allows community-driven decisions and crisis resolution through legitimate social contracts. Hoskinson argues that Cardano's governance model protects it from the kind of turmoil currently threatening Bitcoin, reinforcing Cardano's long-term value proposition. He also emphasizes that Cardano continues to develop scaling solutions, which remain ready for activation by the community.
