- Hayes raised questions on the network’s potential to build successful dApps.
- Cardano’s market cap to TVL ratio was one of the highest in the space.
Bitcoin [BTC] proponent and co-founder of cryptocurrency exchange BitMeX Arthur Hayes ruffled few feathers by using unsavory terms for popular blockchain Cardano [ADA].
Hayes attacks Cardano again
In a controversial X post that has gone viral, the American entrepreneur raised questions on the potential of the network to produce effective natively-built decentralized apps (dApps).
“What dApp on this list originally launched on Cardano, or has a Cardano offering that is heavily used?,” Hayes asked after attaching a snippet of the most successful Web3 projects in the last year.
In what looked like a tongue-in-cheek remark, Bitcoin billionaire even asked founder Charles Hoskinson to educate him about Cardano network’s accomplishments.
Charles Hoskinson’s reply
The bait was taken as Hoskinson responded. He asked Hayes the reason behind him detesting Cardano. Hoskinson even said that he admired Hayes as a person.
In response, Hayes indicated that his disdain for Cardano was not personal, and that he also admired Hoskinson. But Hayes continued to use harsh words for Cardano.
Well, it wasn’t the first instance of Arthur Hayes throwing a shade at Cardano. During a recent interview with Coin Bureau, he labeled Cardano as a “wannabe Ethereum” and its relevance in the blockchain space.
Did Hayes have a point?
Over the years, Cardano’s DeFi growth has lagged well behind its market cap increase, as per AMBCrypto’s analysis of DeFiLlama data.
As of this writing, the total value locked (TVL) on the chain was just $460 million, much less than chains on the same pedestal in terms of popularity. This despite a 147% jump in the last four months.

Cardano’s market cap to TVL ratio was one of the highest in the space, suggesting a highly overvalued asset. Put simply, the native asset ADA didn’t justify its high market cap.
Typically, such projects are less appealing to investors since they offer less scope for growth. As of this writing, ADA was exchanging hands at $0.59, dropping 6.68% in the last 24 hours, according to CoinMarketCap.
