Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson has endorsed an alliance between Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Donald Trump in the upcoming U.S. Presidential election. Hoskinson shared his thoughts on RFK Jr.’s recent speech, praising it for addressing what he described as “deep, uncomfortable truths” about the state of American democracy and the influence of corporate interests.
Cardano founder Support for RFK Jr. and Donald Trump
In a post on X (formerly Twitter), Cardano Founder Charles Hoskinson commended Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s recent speech, which he felt tackled critical issues regarding media control, corporate influence in American politics, and the evolving nature of the Democratic Party. Hoskinson noted that RFK Jr. has strategically decided to support Donald Trump in battleground states while remaining on the ballot in already decided states.
It was a great speech from RFK and one that was filled with deep, uncomfortable truths about our media, corporate control of America, and how profoundly undemocratic the Democrat party has become.

Hoskinson elaborated on his endorsement, stating that a Trump victory could lead to Kennedy holding a significant position within the administration. He expressed optimism that such an administration would bring justice for the U.S. government’s handling of the COVID-19 pandemic and maintain a pro-cryptocurrency stance.
In addition, the Cardano founder emphasized that while he believes the U.S. government requires a more profound reform, including a constitutional convention, he sees the RFK Jr.-Trump alliance as a way to potentially slow down what he views as a decline in American democracy.
Peter Schiff and the Crypto Community’s Reaction
Prominent economist Peter Schiff also shared his views on Kennedy., recognizing the political differences but appreciating his intelligence and genuine concern for the country. Schiff, who is not traditionally a supporter of the Kennedy family, suggested that RFK Jr. is a rare figure in contemporary politics and worthy of consideration by Democrats, even if it means voting for Donald Trump.
Moreover, the broader crypto community has also noted RFK Jr.’s positions. Kennedy made a significant impression during his campaign with his pro-cryptocurrency policies, particularly at the Bitcoin Conference 2024.
RFK Jr was the most pro crypto candidate.
The Crypto for Harris crowd @Crypto4Harris @adamscochran are still hoping like crazy that Harris sends them a crump of support for crypto. It least they are being ‘listened to’ by the current virulently anti-crypto administration.

Aligning with the Cardano founder, Bill Morgan also supported Kennedy, acknowledging him as the most pro-crypto candidate. Morgan’s endorsement aligns with Charles Hoskinson’s view that an RFK Jr.-Trump administration would likely favour the cryptocurrency industry.
According to him, the Crypto4Harris group, which supports Kamala Harris, has continued to advocate for her, even as they express concerns about the current administration’s stance on cryptocurrency regulation. Despite their frustrations, he sarcastically pointed out that members of Crypto4Harris remain hopeful that Harris might offer some level of support to the crypto community,
