Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson recently pushed back against the CLARITY Act support from Ripple's leadership, arguing the legislation contains substantial structural deficiencies. While the digital asset industry has been divided on regulatory approaches, this disagreement highlights a deeper tension within the crypto community: how comprehensive should government oversight be, and what framework actually protects innovation versus stifles it? Hoskinson's critique suggests that some high-profile industry figures backing certain bills may be overlooking critical implementation challenges. The debate underscores the ongoing complexity of achieving consensus around crypto regulation among major players in the space.

Here we go again? Ripple and Cardano are at it again; this regulatory issue really never ends.

Is internal conflict starting again? Ripple and Cardano are at odds again? Is this CLARITY bill really that outrageous? What exactly does Charles mean by structural flaws? Can he be more straightforward? Regarding regulation, it’s said to protect innovation, but honestly, it’s just mutual obstruction, everyone is acting in their own interest. I understand Ripple wanting to quickly comply, but a one-size-fits-all bill still harms the entire ecosystem. Industry consensus is bullshit; if there are interests involved, there’s no consensus. I believe that. This time, it’s all about who compromises first. Betting on a cup of milk tea, Charles definitely won’t back down this time.

Hoskison is back to dissing again. This guy just can't sit still, arguing with industry bigwigs every day. People still need some topics to talk about, or else there won't be any buzz. Is the CLARITY Act really that bad? To be honest, I can't understand that pile of legal documents either. Regarding regulation, anyway, both sides are being criticized. I'm just here to watch the show. Ripple has been working on relationships with the government, and now Chen has launched a fierce attack. Haha, the drama in the industry never ends. In the end, strength still speaks. No matter how good the bill or how comprehensive the clauses are, they can't change the market trend.

Here we go again, the big players are starting to clash over regulation issues. It's really getting tiresome. Ripple and Cardano are playing the good cop and bad cop, and in the end, it's us retail investors caught in the middle and taking the hit. Talking about the CLARITY Act, I think it's just each side having their own little tricks to protect their own coins.

You're arguing with each other again. This is how this circle is; we agreed to oppose the government together, but in the end, everyone is acting independently.

Another internal conflict again. These people each say their own thing, who should we listen to?

The infighting has started again; this is the norm in this circle. Hoskinson is right this time; the Ripple folks just want to give themselves a green light. The CLARITY Act is fundamentally flawed and will be amended someday. Regulation is always unpredictable; we'd better find our own solutions. The more these big shots fight, the more retail investors get hurt.

Are they starting internal conflicts again, with Cardano and Ripple clashing? --- Charles's recent response was spot on; the CLARITY Act indeed has many issues. --- Honestly, regulation is too difficult; it needs to balance innovation and safety. No one should complain. --- Ripple wants to push the bill, while Cardano takes a different stance. Different interests, different positions. --- This is the current state of the crypto community—everyone wants to speak for themselves. --- Hoskisson opposes me, so I support him—playing reverse tactics. --- Let's stop arguing, everyone. Having a bill is already a good start. --- Structural flaws? Where exactly are they? Give us specifics. --- The fight between the two founders actually benefits the coin price; retail investors are just enjoying the gains. --- Regulatory frameworks are truly a tough nut to crack; no one can persuade anyone.

Haha, Ripple is back again, this time Charlie is blasting CLARITY. The circle is so small. King of volatility versus king of volatility, the regulatory drama never ends. Honestly, it's each doing their own thing, and there's no way to unify it. This bill has so many loopholes, and they still dare to push it forward, it's a bit risky. Our community here, arguing more than working. Charlie responded with reason and evidence this time, Ripple needs to respond more firmly. It's another case of利益分化, I think it will take a long time to settle. The bill is poorly written, there's nothing we can do, that's the reality.
