A Twitter user had inquired, "Getting into the restaurant business huh?" to which the Cardano founder replied, "The town nearby my ranch doesn't have good options." So I'm gradually rebuilding the town's culinary options."
Another user had asked if the restaurant will allow payments in ADA, to which Hoskinson replied "yes." The creator of Cardano is well known for pursuing his passions.
In March, Charles Hoskinson announced an investment in Colossal, a biotech start-up that wants to resurrect the woolly mammoth.
