Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson has recently shifted his perspective on Bitcoin, now expressing optimism about Bitcoin’s potential in the DeFi market. Hoskinson’s belief that Bitcoin’s DeFi ecosystem could surpass Solana and Ethereum contrasts sharply with his remarks just two months ago, when he questioned Bitcoin’s relevance. This pivot likely stems from Cardano’s recent integration with the Bitcoin blockchain.

Cardano’s latest integration with Bitcoin aims to open the decentralized finance (DeFi) sector to one of the world’s largest asset classes. Hoskinson has also announced plans to relaunch the Bitcoin Education Project in 2025, offering Aiken training for BTC developers and providing essential resources on GitHub’s Hyperledger Identus repository. He envisions this collaboration as a stepping stone for Bitcoin’s growth in DeFi and believes it could eventually surpass Solana and Ethereum. 
With the implementation of Babel fees, BTC developers can use Aiken to build hybrid Cardano-Bitcoin applications and even pay transaction fees in Bitcoin, an essential move for broader DeFi adoption. Hoskinson emphasized that this marks the beginning of Bitcoin’s DeFi journey.

Two months ago, Hoskinson sparked debate across the crypto space by asserting that the sector no longer needed Bitcoin. In a video widely circulated on social media, he claimed: 
“Bitcoin needs the industry to survive… but the industry doesn’t need Bitcoin. I can’t see its chance of survival. It’s a belief, not an ecosystem.” 
However, with Bitcoin’s newfound DeFi potential, Hoskinson’s interest in Bitcoin’s development has rekindled. He stated that Bitcoin must adapt to maintain its first-mover advantage in the crypto space. 
Additionally, Hoskinson recently shared his opinions on U.S. political developments, criticizing Vice President Kamala Harris for comparing former President Donald Trump to Hitler. 
The integration between Cardano and Bitcoin marks a significant milestone in the crypto ecosystem. With Hoskinson’s strategic plans and DeFi expectations, the partnership between Cardano and Bitcoin could deepen, offering fresh growth opportunities. As the integration takes effect, its impact on the industry remains highly anticipated.
