Does Bitcoin Need Cardano? Crypto Community Responds to Fred Krueger

The news of a collaboration between Bitcoin (BTC) and Cardano (ADA) in the form of a bridge has sparked excitement in the crypto ecosystem. However, some Bitcoin experts, such as Fred Krueger, believe this update is overhyped and unnecessary for Bitcoin's utility. Krueger argues that Bitcoin does not need proof-of-stake (PoS) protocols, like those used by Ethereum and Solana, which have innovations like DeFi and NFTs. Community members, including BitcoinOS developers and expert Dan Held, disagree with Krueger, stating that decentralized lending markets and DeFi do not conflict with Bitcoin's store of value thesis. The push for interoperability and the use of one asset as collateral to earn another is a trend in all blockchains, and the Cardano-Bitcoin collaboration could benefit both communities. The response to Krueger's views suggests a shifting landscape in the crypto industry.
