• Bankless was able to call the scam and invite Charles Hoskinson as a guest host on their podcast.
• The Bankless community started doubting Hoskinson, calling him “a coward.”
• Hoskinson retorted in a series harsh tweets.

David Hoffman, the CEO of Bankless, invited Charles Hoskinson, founder of Cardano and CEO of Cardano’s mother company IOHK, to guest on their podcast after calling the coin a scam over and over.

The invitation had a positive answer at first, where Hoskinson replied with a tweet saying “sure.” However, the Bankless community doubted Hoskinson’s reply by saying he was not willing to show up because he wouldn’t want to face hard questions. Hoskinson responded with several harsh tweets.

The first tweet regarding the whole subject came on Bankless’ official Twitter (NYSE:) account, saying “Imagine an episode with @IOHK_Charles on bankless. Could it happen?”

Following that attack, Bankless fans and the community began criticizing Hoskinson. Ryan Saen Adams (Bankless newsletters writer) tweeted following that and urged Hoskinson contact Bankless.

Hoskinson replied to Adams’ tweet by saying “I’ll have some time after consensus in June. Let’s circle back after that and see what we can do. I’m sure you guys will continue calling Cardano a scam and mocking us in the meantime.”

Both men continued to list their responses. Adams was called out by Hoskinson for calling Cardano scam. Adams demanded a source for this information. Hoskinson then shared the video via his YouTube and Twitter channels, in which he discussed the matter from his perspective.

He said this at the end of his video:

Just to demonstrate the arrogance displayed by some people within our industry. You have these guys that for years have been saying that Cardano is a scam … then out of the blue they say hey come on the show and their community says charles won’t because he’s a coward who’s afraid of hard questions. You guys are here, you can ask me whatever you want, I’ll answer any questions. We could at least have dignity and respect.

Last year, Hoskinson posted a clip of Bankless co-founder talking about Cardano. The video was captioned “It’s extraordinary. Every day so many of these Podcasters feel comfortable calling Cardano a “blatant scam.” It’s one thing to say you’re skeptical. It’s another to call us criminals. This is crypto 2021. Figure out why so many people want nothing to do with it?”
