Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson recently praised Ripple and its XRP ecosystem, highlighting the company's concrete achievements over 12 years. According to Hoskinson, Ripple has launched its RLUSD stablecoin, completed a $1.3 billion Prime Broker deal, and onboarded hundreds of banks into its network.
On the Cardano side, Hoskinson announced that the Leios upgrade would deliver approximately 60x increase in system processing capacity, bringing Cardano's performance in line with XRP. He also outlined plans to expand Cardano's ecosystem through the Pentad initiative, which includes partnerships with LayerZero and Circle, alongside commercial products designed to boost total locked asset value and trading volume.
