Giant crypto investment company Grayscale announced today that it has recalibrated its investment portfolios. In this context, Grayscale stated that Cardano has removed its native token ADA from the fund. Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson reacted to this development.
Cardano inventor displays a sense of dismay
Cardano’s founder, Charles Hoskinson, is a colorful face in the cryptocurrency world. It attracts attention with its appearances from time to time. Today Grayscale announced that it has removed ADA from its GDLC (Grayscale Digital Large Cap Fund) portfolio. Hoskinson reacted to this in his characteristic style. In this context, Hoskinson says, “Wall Street gives; “Wall Street is buying it,” he said. Hoskinson’s statement underlines Wall Street’s influence on the cryptocurrency and digital asset landscape.
The Cardano inventor’s comment fueled speculation that Wall Street was involved in Grayscale’s removal of the GDLC ADA. Meanwhile, following plans to align with the CoinDesk Large cap Select Index methodology, Grayscale recently rebalanced its GDLC portfolio by selling Cardano (ADA). Simultaneously, it pro rata invested the proceeds of the sale into the remaining Fund Components.
Is Grayscale allergic to Cardano and Hoskinson?
cryptokoin.comAs you follow from, in recent months, Charles Hoskinson has already indicated a sense of melancholy over Grayscale’s plans to exclude Cradano in its Dynamic Income Fund (GDIF), a fund focused on capitalizing on the popular crypto staking trend.
Hoskinson, meanwhile, appears to be taking the aforementioned GDLC removal as payback to the Cardano founder’s gloomy remarks about Ethereum Classic. Grayscale has an Ethereum Classic fund called Grayscale Ethereum Classic Trust (ETCG). However, it continues to phase out the ADA from its proposals.
