During the last few days, the renowned Cryptocurrency media outlet, CoinDesk, is facing internal problems related to the dismissal of some editors. This negative situation left a terrible mark on the credibility of that news portal. In mockery, the founder of Cardano, Charles Hoskinson, is considering buying that medium again.
In a response to a journalist’s post on X, the businessman recalled when he offered to buy CoinDesk. “I wonder what the price will be now?” he wrote, mockingly at the internal situation of the medium, which the journalist described as “in ruins.”
It is worth noting that Hoskinson is one of the most controversial characters in the world of cryptocurrencies. In fact, much of his career is based on expressing opinions on any fact to generate interaction. His critics describe him as a provocateur for this behavior. However, this charisma is not unique to Hoskinson in the financial world.

To understand the context of his comment, it must be emphasized that Charles Hoskinson sarcastically proposes buying the aforementioned media as a form of revenge. According to the founder of Cardano, this and other media have a campaign against him. In his opinion, these portals do not publish the great advances of Cardano, but when it comes to negative news, publication interest increases significantly.
Charles Hoskinson has fun with the CoinDesk crisis
The internal situation of CoinDesk, which was recently known, suggests that the portal is in a complicated position. That outlet’s parent company, Bullish, recently abruptly fired three senior editors from the news portal. The reason would have been a post about Tron founder Justin Sun.
The content of the post that caused the layoffs referred to the banana artwork that Sun bought (and then ate). It was content whose story is verifiable, but which was not liked by the Sun team, who contacted Bullish to reprimand him for the CoinDesk article.
The content was deleted from the news portal, which generated an angry reaction from the media outlet’s staff. Following the dismissal of the three top editors, a greater number of employees expressed their intention to resign from CoinDesk. When it acquired the outlet, Bullish committed to respecting editorial independence; However, the current crisis suggests that this is not the case.
According to Fortune, Justin Sun (via Tron) is one of the sponsors of CoinDesk’s flagship event, Consensus. The latter would be an economic tie to the editorial independence of the medium. If anything, this crisis is a source of amusement for Charles Hoskinson.
