In a recent interview, Cardano Founder Charles Hoskinson predicted a major shift coming to the crypto market.
According to the Cardano founder, every season has its peculiarity, with a big push for privacy at the moment, stemming from the need to link the legacy and DeFi worlds together. He recounts progress being made by privacy-focused blockchain, including Midnight and Zksync, among others.
Hoskinson reiterated that privacy is the “big thing” now in cryptocurrency and stands to be the narrative of value appreciation this cycle, with Ethereum killers such as Solana being that of the last cycle.
Stake with pride. A Cardano SPO shares a recap of the Cardano founder’s statements in a tweet, saying: “Privacy blockchains like Midnight will thrive this Altcoin season.Ethereum killers was last cycle.” Altcoin season refers to a period of altcoins outperforming Bitcoin.
Cardano-backed Midnight brings rational privacy to blockchain by utilizing zero-knowledge proofs (ZK Snarks) to protect sensitive data.
