kardan (ADA) ustanovitelj Charles Hoskinson je 19. januarja potrdil zanimanje za nakup medijske hiše CoinDesk, osredotočene na kripto.

Hoskinson je dejal, da je CoinDesk videti predrago za izklicno ceno 200 milijonov dolarjev in dodal, da se bo odločil po pregledu poslovnih knjig podjetja.

Revamping CoinDesk

Hoskinson je dejal njegovo medijsko zanimanje je široko, saj je osredotočen na to, »kako spet priti do novinarske integritete«. Dodal je, da je bil Cardano v preteklosti deležen slabega tiska, saj so morali nekateri mediji uveljavljati posebne agende – pri čemer je navedel primere, vključno s tem, kako je FTX financiral The Block.

Hoskinson argued that this could change if readers are financially incentivized to “fact-check” the media houses.

“When someone publishes something … they actually put money on the table, and if it turns out the thing that they’ve written isn’t true or inaccurate, they actually can lose the money.”

Hoskinson also pointed out that readers could have a new way of interacting with news stories through non-fungible tokens (NFTs). He said it would be “really cool” if each story could be viewed as a living object.

Hoskinson said the incentives would prevent Cardano from influencing the media reports, as readers would actively question and interact with the reporting. He believes this would protect the independent reporting of the media.

Why Hoskinson believes CoinDesk is overpriced

The Cardano founder gave several reasons why he thought CoinDesk was overpriced at $200 million. It would make sense to invest between $5 to $10 million to build a “much more decentralized organization” that would outcompete its rivals in the nearest years, according to Hoskinson.

Hoskinson said that CoinDesk lacks a metaverse component and “a really good video side.” He acknowledged that the firm was trying to build its video product but added that it was not popular.

CoinDesk could enter into several partnerships, citing how a partnership with crypto analytics firm Messari would benefit both firms, according to Hoskinson.
