In response to outside speculation that “wealth makes losses bearable,” he said, “If you think I do this for money, you are very mistaken — even if I lose everything, I will not stop.” He emphasized that he always prioritizes integrity, repeatedly refusing suspicious opportunities, thereby avoiding industry scandals like the FTX collapse. Despite the current market downturn, he encourages the community to remain patient, focused on collaboration and building: “The market may get worse, but we are doing meaningful work that can change the world.” He is optimistic about the progress of infrastructure and governance in the Cardano ecosystem and specifically praises Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin and Solana co-founder Anatoly Yakovenko, viewing them as true peers in promoting crypto adoption.
