I'm a fan of cardano and I think it is making great progress these past years especially last few. But in the crypto community, cardano just seems to be getting hate and also from crypto media. They do not point out the great upgrades and updates that ada is having but just seem to talk about the bad or not true.

Why do you think this happens?  :D

I don't really read much on social media and watch less from mainstream so like what kind of hate are we talking about here? What I know is that people complain about the slow developments and upgrades in Cardano. I don't know the whole history but the team probably made a lot of promises in the early days that they were unable to meet. There are so-called investors that are impatient and wants immediate results or updates and they are present in almost every project.

Cardano is currently completely soundless, unlike in the 2021 bullrun where Cardano is predicted to be the next Ethereum,
but in bearish this time ADA is really very miserable, but if you are a fan of ADA and you haven't bought it yet,
my advise I think now is a good time to buy some ADA and hold onto it for next year.

ADA is no different from other successful coins, such as ETH, SOL, etc., they also often talk only bad and remember only negative sides of these coins, but they have positive sides that allowed them to achieve what their competitors could not. In this sense, ADA is no exception, and a portion of the hate is also prepared for it. Personally, I like ADA as an investment asset, it certainly does not look like a scam and you can get some profit here if we are talking about conservative investing. I never pay attention to the haters and those who speak well of the coin, only DYOR. Negative reviews as well as positive ones can be bought or pursue a certain interest, they are not to be particularly trusted.

The issue with Cardano is that it over-promised and under-delivered, If you look at the Cardano ecosystem, you can't point to any project on it that is worthwhile, no good DEX or Perp on it and when you look at AVAX, Solana, Polygon, Tron, etc even some of these new L2 they are far ahead of Cardono in terms of development. This is not what people were promised, it is a ghost chain and has a multi-billion Dollar Market-cap

I don't consider cardano to be a hated project. People give it some FUD here and there, just like they do with anything else. I also think that it did a lot better than the other projects in terms of price, during the past years.

The only big negative that I remember was during the 2021 bull, that they figured out there's a very fundamental bug in the project which prevents it from running smart contracts and sending transactions in each block. That was a bad one.

I dunno if they did (or will do) anything about it or not, but it was a huge disappointment to me personally. I believe it was one of the reasons why ADA didn't go higher than $3 during the bull, otherwise it could have been exploded even bigger than it did.

Can you share the social media post? I'm not sure what you mean by hate because I haven't seen any bad post about ADA. It's one of the solid coins, it will not be in the top 5 or top 10 in crypto market for so long without it become a good crypto to invest. And you can see it's previous historical logs, the gains and the profits that we have seen, it's huge for it's holders. So it will be just rinse and repeat, it's been down in this bear market, but for sure it will have another great uptick in price in the next bull run.

these coin honestly like ada and matic, get shadowed so hard by some layer 2 coin that even their news regarding of the project aren't appearing anymore.
these coins in the past are being said to be ethereum killer, but it doesn't seem to be really happening, now even layer 2 are just enhancing the ethereum and helps solving the gas problem, yet these coins that said to be ethereum killer are rather stagnant, it's not that many hates ada in general but I guess it's just because so many have high expectation yet it turns out to be some normal ordinary coin, it did great job in overcoming the previous massive correction though, still it doesn't live up to many expectation, so many that have invested are getting frustated. but that's just my 2 cents alright.

I saw his on group FaceBook they are talking about ADA and I saw in the comment section that this project as of now that have accused of being overly focused on marketing and hyping the project rather than delivering actual results.  And also this has a low-development project in which they noticed that the community or supporters only wanted to have hype, not the real use.

I don't pay much attention to this altcoin and I don't interested in why people criticized this project.
It might be another number of shitcoin that it's good to be avoided.

I haven't seen so much "hate" towards it neither, but even if there are some people who dislike it or have any type of disregard for it, I would guess that it would be because of slow work. They have been coding every single day for over 5 years now, and they failed to build a smart contract in time. Think about it, if in 2021 they had a proper working smart contract before the bull run started, not only did it went up, but it would have stayed up in the ranks as well. But because it didn't had a proper one, they failed and even though people supported it and took it high, after failing to deliver, they let it be and it crashed. Thats a very valid reason not to support it or at least have a dislike towards it.

What do you means by hate? Only thing is I can see is ADA is not performed well as we all expect. In a last bullrun ada should be near 10-12$. But it's not. They have nice projects also and fundementally it's in good situation. But only problem is the value of ADA. Most yyoutubers promote ada by saying ada will hit 5$ in next 5 month blah blah. But it never happens. So right now people is don't care about ada. Because there are lot of new projects that are still under 1$ that can give 10-50× in next bull run. So I think it's not about hate people are now not care/invest anymore on ADA.

Even its negative publicity its still a news and people talk baout it still show its exposure to community. Some may throw some tantrums about this project or the things they cant see on the outside but thats only people talking about it. Why not ignore those and just continue your support. Everyone has their own bet coin and tokens and thats normal that they tend to say something bad aside from their own holding to see the other side right? Anyway data and figure speaks for itself about it. Ada is on top list, so ignore potential fud cause it wont change a position for their token that simply.

Every single altcoin gets so much hate. The number 2 altcoin, Ethereum, is also getting so much hate despite the rank and the regular development update. BNB is also getting so much hate. Dogecoin, Ripple, and Solana as well. All of them get so much hate. Aside from slow development and the failure to follow roadmaps and schedules, perhaps one of the reasons why altcoins like ADA get so much hate is that there is a competition. Everybody is hitting each other so that their own altcoin will go up.

Apart from its development being slow, the price is not moving up. An investor who wants real profit in a short time will really hate this kind of project.
It could be because Charles owns a ton of ADA just as how we see XRP where Garlinghouse owned Billions of the XRP tokens. Charles struggles to convince people that he wouldn't dump his tokens.

This is also another token that is just going to be printing more of its token while not very decentralized due to the nature of it being POS.

Too much hype, low to no upgrade to the project.

I guess the fact that they are very slow in terms of making some upgrades to their projects is the reason why they are being hated, but TBH I can't feel the hate on the project... or it's just because I'm not following the project that much. :D. Maybe another reason is that, they are saying that they are the "Ethereum Killer", but developing very slow, and like others said here, they are overhyping the project too much, but the progress is very slow.

Still, Cardano is one of the top tokens right now in terms of market cap, and it has been there for a very long time. It just shows that there's a huge community behind it. I'm currently holding, and staking Cardano for almost a year already, and it's always good to earn coins just by doing nothing though I'm thinking of selling it already, and purchase Ethereum.

Well I think Cardano Founder Charles Hoskinson is a reason it gets so much hate. There is accusations of alt right views and critics calling Cardano a cult does not help it.
There is a crypto journalist Laura Shin who does not think Hoskinson is a honest man. Saying he has lied about his education qualifications https://coincodecap.com/laura-shin-accuses-cardano-founder-receives-hate-from-the-internet
I do hodl ADA so this will not make me change my mind. I think it is a good project and I am not going to listen to the fud.

I didn't follow the news about the development of cardano because maybe I also didn't see it on my social media homepage as well as Charles Hoskinson as the founder of Cardano, I didn't hear from cardano anymore after they announced the launch of their stable coin namely Djed after that I didn't look anymore, but to this day I still hold my cardano with no price improvement, I think that's why kardano gets hate from various quarters and basically doesn't provide the updates which their competitors are quite active in their development.

Yes, ADA price will definitely increase higher next year to allow those that will make up their minds to invest on it, to have something good to achieve in future. Based on what is happening in the crypto market few days ago, showed that ADA will be in second position among other cryptocurrencies next year because their team are very ready to make it more active in a way it will attract more investors. I believe, something special will definitely happen this season that will make Cardano pump higher like never before to make their investors have hope of winning something big soon.

But isn't it that's what the majority of projects are? Even ETH who has delayed so much of it's promised specially about the network fees and the whole staking. So there's nothing extraordinary from ADA to get the hate, (although I'm not sure what kind of hate the OP is telling us).

To each its own, I still believed that ADA is a solid project since it's inception. And I also think that it will be one of the altcoins that will still enjoy success in the future. Could hit a new all time high next bull run, just saying. The developer is still very much active and that's what makes this project one of the better investment.

A few examples of what you mean could go a long way to understand what you mean by hate, cardano like any other coin is going to have supporters and critics, and taking a look at its market cap it is obvious there are a lot of people which support it and which are willing to put their money where their mouth is.

However this does not mean the developers or the project itself is perfect, there is some fair criticism which can be directed towards them and this cannot classified as hate.

Simply because they were expecting too much about its development for the past years and when their expectations didn't meet, they start to unlike it and move on to another project which will gonna give them assurance in terms of their investment. Cardano's competitors are huge giants companies that are consistently updating their products and developing their platforms in order to stay at the top that's why they are hard to beat unless Cardano's developers will come up with new innovative approach towards their marketing and developments.

Reason why Cardano always get hate is the founder is very vocal with current events.  Here is Charles Hoskinson talking negatively about President Biden and the new proposed crypto taxes in US.

Why are you a fan of Cardano? Would you please explain it to us? If we can understand your reasoning maybe we will stop hating it. To me it is just another shitcoin with no real world use. It was supposed to be an ETH killer but nobody's using cardano for their projects. ETH is still the king there and as far as I see, Binance's own project (BNB) is the second most used platform. Where is Cardano in the picture? It doesn't even exist in the picture. People only use it for the pump&dump purposes and nothing else. Here is a chance to change my mind. Enlighten us.

Yes, it seems that as time goes by, Cardano fans are also decreasing,
it is certainly not without reason because the project itself is not clear,
compared to ETH and BNB, of course, the quality is still far away.

There are many possible reasons why Cardano is. Some people may have different preferences when it comes to blockchain technology, while others may have negative experiences with the project or its team members. In addition, some people may spread misinformation or try to manipulate the market to benefit their own interests. Moreover, the volatile nature of the crypto market can also contribute to a polarization of opinions and emotions among investors, leading to less than constructive support for various projects, including Cardano.

I don't really know if Cardano really gets that much hate in comparison to other projects. XRP for example gets way more hate for their centralization than Cardano at least in my personal opinion. Also it is completely normal in the crypto space that there is a lot of hate happening, which is sad, but it is just the reality. There are people that once were invested into Cardano but then sold at the wrong time and made a loss and now they have a bad opinion about Cardano obviously and now they are trying to harm the project by talking bad about it. This happens with basically every project out there and i would not really worry about it.

I don’t see it getting all that much hate, I just think it’s not that controversial. It isn’t discussed all that often so it may seem that people aren’t interested in it.

It’s actually 7th in the top 100 by marketcap but I just don’t see much talk about it. I certainly don’t see it getting lots of hate as the OP stated.

I've read some news about Cardano. I think they are in a crisis period because they don't have innovation and development in their project. Currently Cardano is trading around $0.3 and I don't think they are going to hit their ATH again.

he criticism directed towards Cardano is largely centered around the slow pace of development and delays in meeting promised milestones. Some people in the community have voiced frustration over the team's perceived lack of progress and have expressed doubts about the project's ability to deliver on its promises.

We don't know why the hatred arose, or maybe it was intentional not to attract attention so that they will be shocked and rush to buy ADA when ADA prices increase. But ADA managed to get a good ranking in the market and stayed there for a cycle now and either can still stay in that position or will be knocked out after the altcoin season comes.

If you're a Cardano fan, you can still buy it now and keep it until the price increases. Maybe Cardano is one of the hidden gems in altcoins but I don't know. So do some research if you want to add Cardano to your investment.

I didn't know that either, was accumulating it from time to time. Now I get that, thanks to your thread. Media almost doesn't talk about it, but I hope its best days will come.

The one person i know publicly making a joke about cardano is Alex Becker, the guy seems to have out for cardano and its users.
In all honestly, i think ada cardano is better than some blockchain out there yet they don't take so much heat as cardano does.
i think people are just use to making fun of the project without having any reason to do so.

Better times may not come because in the last cycle the ADA showed a huge increase. For an old coin that doesn't happen very often. Probably a good result for Cardano that it didn't go down on cmc compared to other projects. By the way I don't know any good project on ADA. So it is really a good result to have such a capitalization from an empty project.

There are many factors that could explain why Cardano is causing a backlash in the crypto community and the media. One of the possible reasons could be related to competition and confrontation between different blockchains and their communities.
Some crypto enthusiasts may be committed to other blockchains like Ethereum or Bitcoin and feel threatened by Cardano as a competitor. In addition, disagreements sometimes arise in the crypto community over technical approaches and development strategies, which can cause discussions and conflicts.
It is also possible that in some cases the backlash against Cardano could be due to a lack of awareness or a shift in media focus. The crypto market is very dynamic and competitive, and the media often focuses on those projects that are the most high-profile or discussed at the moment, which can detract from other projects that can also be successful and innovative.

I have been watching cardano since 2017, it has slow upgrades and have no adoption, I don't have to force myself to come to your chain to test it out. Still, it's fine asset to pour some money tho.


Would you mind sharing positive sides of ADA? Where does it do good?

Actually Cardano is a good project, and one that survives the many projects developed. The problem is that Cardano's price changes are not significant compared to the prices of other coins. Previously Cardano was just a single blockchain, just like Bitcoin, but as time went on, and the popularity of smart contracts grew, the team turned it into a smart contract system. Hatred on social media and in other discussion rooms is caused by some who are disappointed with the results of the investments they have made.

Where that started?

I don't see that there's a lot of hate for ADA. I guess it's just mere opinions of people that you're confused of and considers it as a hate instead of criticism.

But if people don't have good to say about it based on the updates that it's giving, there's no way to blame also those people that are just giving their thoughts about it if that's what they can see.

Maybe because Cardano's development is still slow compared to some of the more established blockchain platforms out there. Years ago, I bought some coins using the Cardano network, but all of them didn't ship until now. I think there are still many problems from the block.

On the other hand, other networks such as TRON are growing. So, the crypto industry is known to be highly competitive and fast-paced, and there are many different projects and platforms competing for attention and investment.

Perhaps, some of the negative attention Cardano is getting could be due to other projects trying to discredit it in order to gain a competitive advantage. If Cardano doesn't improve immediately or is still stagnant, it is not impossible that investors will leave.

I mean, haters will always exist, especially if you consider the popularity of that certain something or someone. I actually haven't seen that much hate from it (not that I'm actively looking for news about it though), but imo as long as you see it as a good investment and project I think it's more than good enough? I mean I know it might be a hit on the reputation, but in the long run it wouldn't really matter much since people who know about it will know.

I'm looking at this project not one that benefits. I only look at this project from an investment point of view. All I need for that is a chart and some historical data. I'm sure it doesn't have to have positive aspects and useful utilitarian functions for any project to grow in value.

There could be a number of reasons why Cardano receives criticism from some individuals of the crypto community and social media. Some people may have different opinions on the projects technology, development timeline or the leadership. Others may be simply biased towards cardano as a crypto currency. Every individual are entitled to their own criticism and it is their own opinion if they will believe, support or criticize cardano. Always remember that crypto community is made up of different people and groups who have different perspectives towards the crypto currencies. It is individuals decision if they will continue to believe on Cardano's project and if they are still supporting it's progress.

Cardano is a project that full with gimmick. I see people are critising the project based on the fact. Cardano was offering so many promises but none of these problems become real things. The utility from this token is just a gimmick. I see no real utility that owned by this token.

It's clear that if people were calling cardano as a garbage token. It's caused by its owner is also spreading bullshit promise. i don't even trust this token anymore.

Its normal, just like Bitcoin many top altcoins will have a lot of bad news to make the price down purposely so they can buy that altcoin at a cheaper price. You will see a lot of negative comments or haters on social media, news, coinmarketcap, etc. that's why we should not get on that FUD so we won't become a weak hand just because other people spread negative comments.

Yes, that's a valid point. Cardano has been one of the most talked about blockchain projects in recent years and the development of Cardano has not lived up to its hype and that the project is not focused enough on delivering real world use cases.
