Ethereum 2035: How the next 10 years might look

Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson made headlines this week with a bold 
forecast. He told investors that ADA could rise as much as 1,000× from its 
current level. Bitcoin, he argued, has less room to run. His comments came as 
Bitcoin traded around $118,000 and Cardano lingered around $0.78. Related

Returns According to Hoskinson, Bitcoin’s market cap of about $2.35 trillion 
leaves it with only a potential 10× upside to hit a $1 million price. By 
contrast, ADA sits close to $28 billion market cap. He said that a 100× move 
would bring ADA close to $77.90, while 1,000× would push it toward $779 per 
coin. Those figures imply a Cardano market cap around $27.5 trillion. It’s a 
gap so large that few expect it to close without major shifts in adoption or 
regulation. 🔥ADA can 1000X, Bitcoin can&#8217;t — Charles Hoskinson Charles says 
$BTC might 10x, but $ADA can go 100x or even 1000x.🚀 He mocked: “Oh sure, 
let’s sell ADA for Bitcoin… so we can make less money.”🤡

Debate Over Treasury Moves Based on reports, Hoskinson has also proposed 
converting up to $100 million of the ADA treasury into Bitcoin and 
stablecoins. The goal is to boost liquidity for a planned Cardano stablecoin. 
Some community members warn the move could trigger selling pressure on ADA. 
Others argue it would strengthen the ecosystem’s cash reserves. The plan has 
drawn criticism from inside and outside the Cardano camp, with BTC supporters 
calling for a full switch and ADA loyalists pushing back. Cardano’s Role In 
Bitcoin’s Future According to Hoskinson, Cardano could serve as a yield layer 
for Bitcoin, adding smart‑contract capabilities to the original chain. He said 
Cardano “does substantially more” than Bitcoin’s base protocol. If wallets and 
DeFi apps use ADA as collateral or for staking, he believes that could drive 
real‑world demand. Yet today’s dApp numbers still lag behind rivals like 
Ethereum, and developer activity remains well below industry leaders. Huge 
Numbers Highlight Gap Based on market caps, a 1,000× ADA rally would vault 
Cardano past the world’s biggest companies and many national economies. By 
comparison, Bitcoin shooting for another 10× gain would keep it in the same 
league it already dominates. The sheer scale needed for ADA to match those 
multiples has few precedents in financial history. Related Reading: Countdown

According to market observers, the key signals will be developer growth, 
transaction volumes, and real‑world use cases. ADA holders will also track 
whether the treasury move happens and how it’s executed. Any large-scale asset 
swap could shake trader confidence. For now, Cardano’s community will weigh 
the promise of outsized gains against the risks of execution and market 
dynamics. Featured image from Unsplash, chart from TradingView
