Crypto enthusiast Leader Alpha has published a tweet describing what he characterizes as a significant development involving Charles Hoskinson and Solana Foundation President Lily Liu.In the post, Leader Alpha wrote that Hoskinson had a “secret dinner” with Liu, where they discussed their respective ecosystems and identified what he described as common ground.The tweet says the two blockchain figures moved beyond long-standing rivalry narratives between the Cardano and Solana communities.Leader Alpha further claimed that tokens associated with <a href="https://timestabloid.com/midnight-is-a-game-changer-for-cardano-ada-heres-why/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Midnight</a>, identified in the tweet as $NIGHT, were airdropped directly to Solana wallets. He added that major <a href="https://timestabloid.com/charles-hoskinson-reiterates-cardano-xrp-collaboration/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">cross-chain collaborations </a>involving Solana-based applications could be forthcoming.Framing the development as a turning point, Leader Alpha asked whether what he called the “ADA vs SOL war” might effectively be over. He concluded by stating that the situation “changes everything,” while tagging Cardano (ADA), Solana (SOL), and NIGHT.<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">MIND-BLOWING JUST IN <img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/1f6a8.png" alt="🚨" class="wp-smiley">Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson just spilled the tea:He had a SECRET dinner with Solana Foundation President Lily Liu…They found COMMON GROUND…AIRDROPPED <a href="https://twitter.com/search?q=%24NIGHT&amp;src=ctag&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">$NIGHT</a> straight to Solana wallets…And now? MASSIVE cross-chain collabs… <a href="https://t.co/mTesaY7LVC" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">pic.twitter.com/mTesaY7LVC</a>— Leader Alpha (@LeaderAlphaNews) <a href="https://twitter.com/LeaderAlphaNews/status/2023045962864971950?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">February 15, 2026</a></blockquote><h2 id="b-hoskinson-s-remarks-in-the-attached-video-b">Hoskinson’s Remarks in the Attached Video</h2>In a video attached to the tweet, Hoskinson confirmed that he recently had dinner with Lily Liu. He stated, “I had dinner with Lily Liu the other day. We got to talk about <a href="https://timestabloid.com/if-you-still-think-solana-sol-is-just-for-memecoins-read-this/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Solana</a> and actually find common ground.” He described Liu as highly confident in Solana’s position, recounting that at the table she expressed the view that Solana had already won the competitive battle among blockchains.Hoskinson acknowledged that in previous exchanges, he had taken a more combative tone, asserting that Cardano was the leading platform. However, he explained that the recent discussion adopted a different approach. He noted that <a href="https://timestabloid.com/heres-how-xrp-holders-can-qualify-as-cardano-glacier-airdrop-goes-live/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Midnight tokens</a> had been airdropped to Solana wallets and added that there are multiple Solana applications with which collaboration may be possible.His comments suggest a shift from rivalry toward potential interoperability, at least at the exploratory level. While he did not outline specific technical integrations or timelines, the remarks indicate that conversations between representatives of the two ecosystems have taken place.<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">We are on X, follow us to connect with us :- <a href="https://twitter.com/TimesTabloid1?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">@TimesTabloid1</a>— TimesTabloid (@TimesTabloid1) <a href="https://twitter.com/TimesTabloid1/status/1934162718258499855?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">June 15, 2025</a></blockquote><h2 id="b-implications-for-cardano-and-solana-communities-b">Implications for Cardano and Solana Communities</h2>The interaction carries symbolic significance given the competitive history between Cardano and Solana supporters. The suggestion of cross-chain engagement, particularly through Midnight-related initiatives, introduces the possibility of shared development efforts rather than continued ecosystem isolation.Leader Alpha’s post emphasizes the idea that collaboration could replace rivalry narratives. However, the tweet does not provide detailed documentation of formal agreements, technical roadmaps, or structured partnership announcements. Instead, it focuses on Hoskinson’s recounting of the dinner and the acknowledgment of potential cooperation.At this stage, neither Hoskinson nor Liu has publicly released a detailed implementation plan outlining how or when collaborative efforts would materialize.Disclaimer: This content is meant to inform and should not be considered financial advice.
