Cardano blockchain founder Charles Hoskinson, in a recent interview, revealed some details about negotiations to acquire CoinDesk, the largest news media about the crypto industry. Talks about the upcoming sale of CoinDesk started right after the Genesis bankruptcy news — both projects are closely tied to their parent company DCG, which has been forced to sell assets to close debts.
During his latest ask-me-anything (AMA) session on YouTube, Charles Hoskinson said that talks with CoinDesk are underway, but he has signed a non-disclosure agreement (NDA). Therefore, he can’t give out details of the CoinDesk purchase negotiations just yet. At the same time, Charles Hoskinson, based on the current results, expressed doubt that a deal could take place at all.
In the latest livestream, Hoskinson also said his media interest is broad and he would like to “figure out how to get to journalistic integrity again.” The executive highlighted the need to find a strong media outlet. Turning various news pieces into NFTs, thereby making it possible for the readers to interact with them, was another point made by Hoskinson.
