- Charles Hoskinson will miss ETH Denver
- He hinted at a mysterious thing he has to do in Florida
- Main rumor is that he’s meeting US President Donald Trump
Charles Hoskinson, founder of Cardano, had yet another intriguing post on X, saying he will miss ETH Denver because he has something to do in Florida.
Naturally, this sparked all kinds of speculation, the main one being that he might be meeting US President Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago.
The crypto community circulated talk about Hoskinson’s potential meeting with President Trump for a while now, especially following his mention of meeting a VIP towards the end of February.
A sit-down with Trump may open the door for discussions on clearer blockchain regulations, possibly helping projects like Cardano.
Trump’s Order and Hoskinson’s Policy Influence
This is all hearsay as of yet, but there might be some truth to it, mainly because of Trump’s recent executive order on digital assets. It signals a shift toward a pro-crypto stance, with regulatory clarity being a major focus.
On the other hand, for Hoskinson, this could be an opportunity to shape policy discussions, where he could make sure that decentralized blockchain projects like Cardano are considered in the administration’s crypto strategy.
Why Does It Matter for Crypto?
On January 23, 2025, US President Trump signed an executive order titled ‘Strengthening American Leadership in Digital Financial Technology’. It aims to promote the growth of the US crypto industry by establishing a regulatory framework and prohibiting the creation of a central bank digital currency (CBDC).
This order also calls for examining a national digital asset reserve. Industry leaders like Hoskinson may guide how these ideas take form.
However, it’s important to note that as of now, there is no official confirmation of a meeting between Hoskinson and President Trump.
Hoskinson could be in Florida for entirely different reasons. Some propose that he could be engaging in discussions with the MultiversX co-founder Beniamin Mincu, as they were recently seen dining together.
Or, he could just be going to Disney World. But in all seriousness, the rumored Trump meeting lines up with his early February post about getting together with a very important person later in the month.
Something interesting for crypto might be around the corner.
