Charles Hoskinson became disillusioned with Trump's influence on the crypto market.
The administration of US President Donald Trump turned out to be "somewhat useless" for the crypto industry, despite initial expectations of a "magical positive effect." This opinion was shared by Cardano co-founder Charles Hoskinson.
During his speech at the Midnight summit, he acknowledged that many in the community, including himself, expected an unequivocally positive impact from the Trump government. During the election campaign, the politician made cryptocurrencies one of the main directions of his program.

), adapting to the new regulatory reality.

Over the past few weeks, the number of wallets with a balance of up to 1 BTC has decreased to the lowest level in a year, from 980,577 to 977,420.
