Hoskinson Criticizes Trump’s Pro-Crypto Push and its Impact on Crypto Market Cycles

Charles Hoskinson, co-founder of Cardano, argues that President Trump’s sudden embrace of crypto disrupted market expectations in 2025. He claims the government’s aggressive shift from skepticism to support led to irrational optimism, creating a pressure cooker effect within the ecosystem. This fast change, according to Hoskinson, interfered with the expected rhythm of the four-year cycle tied to Bitcoin’s halving and amplified volatility. Hoskinson emphasized that this sudden push for regulation and innovation disrupted market expectations and created uncertainty that developers are still navigating.
