Charles Hoskinson, co-founder of Input Output Global, addressed concerns regarding ADA distribution and the potential integration of USDC on the Cardano platform.

Hoskinson’s explanation touched on the integration of USDC on Cardano, stressing the importance of formal proposals and governance mechanisms to ensure community-driven decision-making.
