Cardano (ADA) Founder Charles Hoskinson Announces New Giant Move
Cardano (ADA) founder Charles Hoskinson took new action after X was shut down in Brazil.
In response to the Brazilian Supreme Court's ban on Elon Musk's social media platform X, Cardano blockchain founder Charles Hoskinson has announced plans to develop a decentralized social network in Brazil.
Hoskinson shared his intentions in a post on X, stating his commitment to free expression and decentralization. “While Brazil has silenced our brothers and sisters in X, their work will still stand and matter to us all,” Hoskinson wrote. “I look forward to developing a decentralized social network.”
Brazil’s Supreme Court ordered the suspension of X over the weekend after Musk refused to appoint a legal representative to contact the Brazilian government. The court’s decision leaves most of the platform’s 20 million users in the country without access. The move is seen as part of a broader global debate over regulating free expression online, particularly in regions where online discussions have become a focal point for government control.
X's billionaire owner, Elon Musk, responded to the ban by advising users to access the platform through the X.com website and suggested downloading a VPN to bypass the block.
Hoskinson's proposed project aims to offer an alternative to traditional social media platforms by combining the principles of decentralization and freedom of expression.
