In a recent communication, Charles Hoskinson, the founder of Cardano, addressed concerns within the ADA community regarding scaling. Hoskinson emphasized that the Cardano treasury holds ample funds to undertake an assertive scaling program involving Leios, Hydra, and Zero-Knowledge (ZK) technology, subject to the community's decision. Advocating for a parallel strategy, Hoskinson highlighted the infrastructure and talent available within Cardano to pursue multiple scaling initiatives concurrently. This approach aims to cater to immediate scaling requirements while preparing for future needs.

Looking back at the substantial progress achieved in the past couple of years, Hoskinson expressed confidence in the potential for rapid advancement in scaling Cardano. The substantial enhancements and innovations introduced over the last 24 months have laid a robust groundwork for further growth on the Cardano blockchain. Hoskinson noted that the ongoing enhancements to Cardano's infrastructure have bolstered the platform's scalability, security, and functionality. Notable upgrades like the Vasil Upgrade in September 2022 and the Valentine upgrade in February 2023 have significantly improved Cardano's smart contract capabilities and public key cryptography support.

Responding to Hoskinson's statement, Rick McCracken DIGI, a Cardano SPO, expressed his support for rapid scaling while cautioning against depleting the treasury too quickly to avoid adverse effects on the price of Ada. However, McCracken acknowledged the importance of scalability for Cardano's future success.
