Hoskinson touched on volatile nature of crypto market
According to the creator of Cardano Charles Hoskinson, $5,000 worth of ADA purchased in January 2021 could be priced at $6,750 at the moment, which means an increase of $1,750. The creator of Cardano said this in relation to the timing of the market performance.
Hoskinson was responding to a Cardano user who said that he had purchased $5,000 worth of ADA in July 2021, which is now only worth $1,500. In this regard, Hoskinson touched on the volatile nature of the cryptocurrency market by saying, deadpan, “Markets go up and down.”
At the time of writing, Cardano’s ADA is trading slightly higher at $0.50.
As reported by U.Today, Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson said that cryptocurrencies had entered a bear market when questioned about the dull performance of ADA. Following bearish market conditions from the beginning of 2022, ADA has significantly underperformed this year after posting enormous gains in 2021. It is now 83.57% lower than the record high it attained in early September 2021 before the much-publicized Alonzo upgrade.
