Quite disingenuous for him for him to say that Bitcoin lacks improvement and that improvements should be applied sooner(which going the slow route totally justified, because you know, $700b marketcap, hence we really can't afford to screw this up); knowing that Cardano itself is known for taking the slow heavy-researched route in terms of development to make sure that the updates have no bugs and such.

Exactly, his ADA has taken a slow step on improving it's performance, so it doesn't make sense for Charles to say that bitcoin lacks improvement because as a dev, he should know that it is not easy to make iterations especially as bitcoin is a prime mover in space.
How old is Cardano compared to Bitcoin? Maybe that's where he's coming from?

Okay, but how can his opinion affect the crypto industry?
It probably won't if you're talking about cryptocurrency as a whole. It's just that Bitcoin neutrals or doubters would buy ADA if they find out what he said.

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, but full nodes are more resource-heavy, and they must do a lengthy initial syncing process. As a result, lightweight clients with somewhat less security are commonly used.
Advertised sites are not endorsed by the Bitcoin Forum. They may be unsafe, untrustworthy, or illegal in your jurisdiction.

Bitcoin is not a store of value, and anyone that confuses it for such will suffer dramatically.
Short-term, yes they might suffer. If you bought at $60k, your portfolio doesn't look that good right now. But why are you thinking short-term? It's been proven time and time again that its value increases over several years.

And don't forget that when bitcoin falls by 10%, alts fall by 20%. When bitcoin falls by 50%, alts fall by 80% or 90% and some never recover. Bitcoin has recovered every time and reached new highs.  

The is a proven saying in investing,

Past Performance is No Guarantee of Future Profits.

The problem with Bitcoiners, is that a cult mentality has replaced any reason left,
thinking that a product that ignores the fatal flaws of energy waste, low transaction capacity, & government bans
will continue on a ship to the moon is fantasy.

You would have earned more investing in alts like Doge than bitcoin since 2017.
The major flaw to your thought process is the hodl, you have to sell to profit.
Hodl until you achieve a great profit, then SellZ like your life depends on it, or watch your profit fade away.

Again see the line above in Blue, it is more truthful than any other.
Tulips anyone?  Smiley


FYI:
A true store of value does not fluctuate thousand$ of Dollars in a month,
A Speculative Gamble does, and that is ok, just don't confuse the two,
because a store of value , you may need at any moment, (Medical treatment, House or Car Payments, Food)
not something you can place on hodl for 5-7 years while it gets back to the price you purchased it at.
  
FYI2:
Your Bitcoin peaked at $63K ,
all you have now is a long long long slow downward drop back to $3k, with a couple of dead cats bounces throw in.

Bitcoin may become the most important invention in the 21st century, or it may fade into obscurity or be reduced to nostalgia. People that pin their hopes and dreams on Bitcoin are missing the point.


Yes, that's right, even Bitcoin should be included in the list of valuable inventions that have opened the world's eyes to its existence to date. What is the point? was to have displayed a great existence that could let one know one's potential in the future. I hope Bitcoin will be the starting point for the history of the world's technological civilization. so Bitcoin really must be guarded by all circles. even the world must admit that Bitcoin until now has a resistance value that is above Gold.

How old is Cardano compared to Bitcoin? Maybe that's where he's coming from?

Cardano is more or less 6 years old as far as I know, so we could say that it's too "early" for Cardano. Compared to it's competitors though, some smart contract platforms are like half the age of Cardano but yet they all have those so called "apps" working already. Maybe Cardano is taking the sort of "play safe" approach in terms of development? Alright, that's  probably a good strategy to prevent bugs and breaches and such. But him calling out Bitcoin for slow development LOL? Just disingenuous.
