Charles Hoskinson Snubbed as White House Crypto Summit Excludes Cardano Co-Founder

Cardano co-founder Charles Hoskinson has not been invited to the White House Crypto Summit scheduled for Friday, March 7, 2025, according to Unchained.

Despite speculation surrounding his attendance, Charles Hoskinson and other representatives from

Cardano

are not among the confirmed participants.

The summit, a landmark event for U.S. cryptocurrency policy, is anticipated to shape future regulatory discussions and could introduce a strategic crypto reserve. Key industry figures, including members of former President Donald Trump’s crypto task force, are expected to be present.

Hoskinson’s exclusion has raised eyebrows, particularly after Trump recently mentioned on Truth Social that Cardano’s ADA token would be part of a proposed crypto reserve.

Hoskinson Questions Summit’s Impact on Policy

Hoskinson stated that neither he nor any representatives from Cardano had received an invitation. He expressed skepticism about the summit’s significance in shaping crypto policy, suggesting that meaningful decisions would ultimately be made at the legislative level rather than during White House discussions.

“They are running around town trying to push their own sort of narrative,” a White House source commented.

The guest list features several high-profile figures in the cryptocurrency industry, including Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse, former Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao, and Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino.

While Cardano has been gaining traction in policy discussions, it remains unclear why its leadership was not included in this high-level meeting.

The summit is expected to set the stage for further regulatory developments, but as Hoskinson pointed out, legislative action will likely determine the long-term direction of U.S. crypto policy.
