He emphasized the importance of these issues for regulation and dispute resolution. Hoskinson also discussed Cardano's unique decentralized governance structure and how it benefits institutional adoption.

He also addressed the issue of token dilution, expressing confidence in Cardano's long-term value proposition and its loyal and evangelistic community.
