Charles Hoskinson, the founder of Cardano, recently announced that he will temporarily step away from the noise of social media. He deleted the X app and plans to enter a "closed-door" state. The reason is straightforward—he feels that his high-profile personal image has instead caused interference for projects like Cardano and Midnight.



This decision has sparked a heated discussion in the community. Supporters say it's a good thing, allowing everyone to refocus on Cardano's technological innovation, with less gossip and personality worship. But some people are not convinced. Host Tim Warren expressed concern: Hoskinson's exposure and communication skills in recent years have been crucial in attracting core ADA supporters. Especially recalling the 2021 bull market, his communication ability directly impacted user loyalty.

The current question is, how will this move affect ADA's price trend? The market has various opinions, and no conclusion has been reached yet. Without the founder's voice, is this an opportunity for Cardano to return to its technological essence, or does it mean losing a key market driver?

Bro, I just want to say, even the founders think they've become a burden to the project, and this signal is just too strong... --- Closing the door won't change the fundamentals. No matter how awesome the technology is, it's all useless if no one promotes it. --- Nah, this is the rhythm before a dump. I bet five bucks. --- Finally able to look at the code properly. Less drama, so refreshing. --- He has such a strong persona but deletes his account. Either he's confident or he's completely guilty—pick one. --- Wait, so how is midnight still being pushed? Could it be that a robot is taking over? --- It's basically just to whitewash the image. It'll be back online later. Just wait and see.

nah this is peak cope narrative... charles going dark right before potential volatility? my regression analysis of founder absence correlates with -12% median price action across 47 comparable projects, p-value basically screams red flag fr

Wait, will he really stick to his seclusion? With his personality... he'll probably come out to speak sooner or later.

Can seclusion save ADA? It depends on subsequent technological progress. The higher the exposure of real identity, the greater the risk. I support his move. Can deleting X let him focus on coding? Dream on, the market won't wait. Basically, it's passing the buck to technology. Don't blame me when the price drops. This move seems quite sincere, but ADA still has to prove itself through practical applications. If ADA rises during the period of seclusion, that would be truly ironic.

The move to shut down X... I really can't understand what Charles is thinking Speaking of which, without him rallying on Twitter, can ADA hold up? Back in 2021, it was all about his storytelling marketing If you ask me, a project with pure technical strength doesn't need the founder to be spouting off every day, but the market just eats that up... This wave might be bleeding out Let's see if a reverse operation can pull a wave back; sometimes disappearing can also be a hype Is it really going to be this long for the shutdown? Half a year or forever? Come on, Charles, if you step back, the retail investors in the market will lose their backbone Feels a bit pretentious, trying to use disappearance to appear more rational? The days of pumping the price are probably over, everyone I think it's actually a good thing; fewer faith recharges always feels right Honestly, it all depends on whether Midnight can step up... otherwise, there's really no topic Now it's quiet, but whether ADA can stand on its own is the real key

Closing up? Ha, let's see who can still support ADA now. --- Oh wait, being technically skilled is enough, why rely on persona? --- That guy Tim is just afraid no one will hype the coin price anymore. --- I just want to know if this wave is positive or negative... the wallet is trembling. --- Deleting X can still increase the sense of technology? Laughing to death, this is the biggest marketing. --- I'm a bit looking forward to seeing how Cardano will go on, this experiment is interesting. --- Is it a disease if the founder's persona is strong? Not necessarily. --- I don't care how the price moves, I just want Charles to stop posting those long essays. --- In a bull market, they suck blood with their mouths; when the bear market comes, they pretend to be pure. They look down on people too much.

Bragging and technical skills can't coexist, Charles's move could make ADA drop to the bottom of the barrel.
