You can ride it out. I\u2019ve lost more money than anyone listening to this, over $3 billion now.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Hoskinson added that it would have been \u2018real easy\u2019 to cash out and walk away. However, he insists that he is not in it for the money and he is led by a vision of a decentralized future in which the Cardano network underpins global commerce.<\/p>\n<p>His singular focus on what\u2019s best for the people has not made him a popular figure in the crypto ecosystem. This is why he doesn\u2019t appear in the Epstein files, he\u2019s not invited to White House meetings for the crypto leaders and hasn\u2019t been mentioned in any crypto scandal, including FTX. He added:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>I don\u2019t care if it means I get put in the little kids\u2019 table and don\u2019t get to go to the White House. Why would I want to go? What are these people offering?<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>While he claims to have lost over $3 billion, Hoskinson recently announced that he was going to sell most of his luxury items and reinvest the money in the Cardano ecosystem. This includes a private jet, a helicopter and a Lamborghini, as we <a href=\"https:\/\/www.crypto-news-flash.com\/cardano-founder-all-in-on-rebuilding\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">reported<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3>Cardano Founder: We\u2019re Moving Toward a Single Global Market<\/h3>\n<p>Hoskinson also discussed the current downturn in the crypto and stock markets. He stated that nothing is currently stable, including the US president, and he blames it on a change in the global order. He noted:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Globalism has finally reached its peak, accelerated by AI and demographic changes, and the human race is starting to think as \u201cwe\u201d instead of nation by nation.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The old guard that has been benefitting from the previous order is fighting to keep its power, and this is leading to an unstable economy. However, Hoskinson believes the new world order is here, and \u201cthe only way to run a world like this is through a cryptocurrency.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Despite the ongoing market dip, he says that crypto will emerge victorious and surge past previous highs.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>There\u2019s an inevitability of victory.
