Oh, honey, what is even happening? Base creator Jesse Pollak just jumped into the meme token mosh pit with Soulja Boy, and now the internet is like, “Girl, no.” 💅
Apparently, this whole fiasco is giving everyone flashbacks to that time your aunt tried to explain Bitcoin over Thanksgiving dinner. 🦃🔥
Jesse Pollak’s Crypto Cameo: A Meme Too Far? 🎭
So, here’s the tea: In mid-December, Soulja Boy (yes, that Soulja Boy) was out here comparing creator payouts like he’s the CFO of TikTok. 🤑 On December 13, he tweeted:
“Twitch pays you once a month. TikTok pays you once a week. Favorited pays you once a day. Choose your poison wisely,” the rapper wrote. 🧪💸
Enter Jesse Pollak, who apparently thought, “You know what this needs? A blockchain twist!” He chimed in with:
. @baseapp pays you instantly
– jesse.base.eth (@jessepollak) December 13, 2025 🕊️✨
Because nothing says “innovation” like piggybacking on a rapper’s tweet. 🤷♀️
But wait, it gets spicier! Pollak then replied directly to Soulja Boy, saying he’d backed him on Base and earned instantly. His exact words? “New internet shit.” 🌐💩
@souljaboy just backed you on @base and you instantly earned.
new internet shit
– jesse.base.eth (@jessepollak) December 13, 2025 🚀🤡
Now, Pollak didn’t name-drop any specific token, but the internet is the internet. Everyone assumed he was endorsing Soulja Boy’s meme token, because why wouldn’t he? 🤔
ZachXBT: The Crypto Sherlock Holmes 🕵️♂️
Cue ZachXBT, the blockchain detective who’s like, “Hold up, let’s talk about Soulja Boy’s crypto résumé real quick.” 📜🔍 He tweeted:
“Why give SouljaBoy the platform to scam new people?” ZachXBT posed, referencing his prior investigations into the rapper’s crypto history. 🕵️♂️⚖️
According to ZachXBT’s April 2023 deep dive, Soulja Boy has been involved in 73 crypto promotions and 16 NFT launches. Spoiler alert: many of them ended in tears. 😭💸
1/ In recent weeks influencers have given @souljaboy praise for new NFT projects in hopes of clout.
In reality he has been one of the most shameless promoters in the crypto space.
In my research I observed 73 promotions & 16 NFT drops done by him. Many of these were scams.

Apparently, Soulja Boy’s tokens have a habit of crashing faster than a reality TV romance. And let’s not forget the SEC charges and lawsuits. Yikes. 👮♂️⚖️
Critics are now side-eyeing Pollak like he just showed up to a gala in sweatpants. They’re like, “Dude, you’re supposed to be the responsible one!” 👔🙄
This whole situation is like a bad reality show, but with more blockchain. 🍿🔗
“Even if intentions were lighthearted, credibility risk compounds fast when serious builders mingle with serial promoters. Markets judge alignment, not tone. Signal erodes when attention shifts from innovation to spectacle, and liquidity follows perception,” one user expressed. 🎭💸
Meanwhile, supporters are like, “Hey, it’s a permissionless system! Let people meme in peace!” 🕊️🤡
But critics are all, “Visibility = validation, especially when it’s coming from the big dogs.” 🐕👑
So, here we are, watching Pollak navigate this mess like he’s on a crypto version of Survivor. Will he make it to the next episode? Stay tuned, folks. 🎬🍿
