Charles Hoskinson, founder of Cardano (ADA), believes that Bitcoin's layer-2 scaling solution lacks potential compared to Ethereum and Cardano. He argues that the BTC network cannot adapt to the dynamic L2 environment, unlike Ethereum and Cardano, which constantly undergo targeted upgrades to support effective, efficient, reliable, and secure L2s. Hoskinson's comments have sparked a reaction from the crypto community, with some defending Bitcoin's ability to function without additional features. The upcoming Bitcoin halving event in April has led many innovators to capitalize on the hype and launch a series of Bitcoin L2s.
