Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson declared that the blockchain's established roadmap is complete and the network has achieved full self-governance. Speaking in a November 7 YouTube livestream, Hoskinson stated that all features he promised to build have been delivered and that Cardano can now select its leaders without requiring his consent. Addressing investor concerns, Hoskinson denied ever promising that Cardano would surpass Bitcoin or guaranteeing token price appreciation. He emphasized that personal judgment does not constitute a price commitment and affirmed he has fulfilled his duty of building the network and advancing decentralization.
