  • Charles Hoskinson took a shot at the Solana blockchain on X.
  • Hoskinson shared a fake article by Nansen CEO about Solend founder’s arrest.
  • Solana and Cardano remain at war with both ranking among the top blockchains.

Charles Hoskinson, the creator of the Cardano (ADA) blockchain, took a playful jab at the Solana community on X (formerly Twitter), highlighting the ongoing rivalry between the two Ethereum scaling blockchain networks.

In the X post , Hoskinson shared a screenshot of a satirical article posted by Nansen CEO Alex Svanevik, which joked the founder of Solend, a DeFi platform on the Solana blockchain, was arrested in Singapore for reportedly smuggling 20,000 condoms to the city-state!

The fake article was an attempt to ridicule the upcoming Solana Breakpoint event in Singapore and talked about how the Singaporean authorities believe that the condoms were to be used in the Solana conference. Hoskinson shared the article’s screenshot captioning, “He just wanted to safely use Solana” a dig at Solana’s past technical issues and outages.

Svanevik joined in the fun, comparing the situation to “bringing 20,000 steaks to a vegan festival!”

While lighthearted, Hoskinson’s comment underscored the challenges Solana has faced with outages and protocol issues, exaggerating the idea that the Solend founder was prepared with 20,000 condoms before using the SOL network. The replies to both posts were filled with crypto enthusiasts taking shots at Solana.
