Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson says Midnight won't chase Monero, ZCash users

Charles Hoskinson, the founder of Cardano, has made it clear that the upcoming project known as Midnight will not actively seek to attract users from established privacy-focused cryptocurrencies like Monero and ZCash. Instead, he emphasizes that the goal of Midnight is to create its unique ecosystem and features, rather than competing directly for the user base of these well-known privacy coins. source: https://www.coindesk.com/business/2026/02/12/cardano-founder-charles-hoskinson-says-midnight-won-t-chase-monero-zcash-users
