The founder of Cardano Charles Hoskinson made news this week with a bold forecast. He told investors that Ada could increase up to 1,000 × from his current level.
Bitcoin, he said, has less space to run. His comments arrived when Bitcoin exchanged about $ 118,000 and Cardano lingered about $ 0.78.

Bold affirmation on returns
According to Hoskinson, Bitcoin’s capitalization of approximately $ 2.35 trillion leaves it only a potential 10 × upward to reach a price of $ 1 million. On the contrary, Ada is located near a market capitalization of $ 28 billion.
He said that a 100 × move would bring Ada close to $ 77.90, while 1,000 × would push him to $ 779 per coin.
Those figures involve a cardan market capitalization about $ 27.5 trillion. It is such a great gap that few expect it to close without important changes in adoption or regulation.

Increase in the debate on the moves of the Treasury
On the basis of reports, Hoskinson has also proposed to convert up to $ 100 million in the Ada treasure in Bitcoin and Stablecoin.
The goal is to increase liquidity for a planned Cardano Stablecoin. Some members of the community warn that the move could trigger a sales pressure on the ADA.
Others argue that it would strengthen the case reserves of the ecosystem. The plan has aroused criticism from the inside and outside the Cardano field, with the supporters of the BTC asking for a complete switch and the lealist of the ADA who go back.
Cardano’s role in Bitcoin’s future
According to Hoskinson, Cardano could act as a level of performance for Bitcoin, adding intelligent contract functionality to the original chain.
He said Cardano “basically more” of the Bitcoin Basic Protocol. If the Difi portfolios and apps use Ada as a guarantee or for the picket, he believes that he could guide the demand for the real world.
Yet today’s numbers are still late compared to rivals such as Ethereum and the developers’ activity remains well below the industry leaders.
Huge numbers highlight the gap
Based on market capitalization, a event of 1,000 × Ada would have exceeded Cardano beyond the largest companies in the world and many national economies.
In comparison, the filming of Bitcoin for another 10 × gain would keep him in the same League that already dominates. The pure scale necessary for Ada to combine those multiples has few precedents in financial history.

What investors should watch
According to market observers, the key signals will be the growth of developers, the volumes of transactions and the cases of use of the real world.
The dentors of Ada will follow even if the treasure move occurs and how it is performed. Any exchange of large -scale activities could shake the trader’s trust.
For now, the Cardano community will weigh the promise of out of measure earnings against the risks of execution and market dynamics.
