Soulja Boy Crypto Drama: Base Co-founder in Hot Water 🍿💸

by

Key Highlights (Because Who Has Time for Nuance?)

  • Jesse Pollak got roasted for cozying up to a Soulja Boy meme coin. 😬🤑
  • ZachXBT dropped receipts faster than a Black Friday sale, exposing Soulja Boy’s crypto scam history. 📉🔍
  • The internet is now debating whether Base is a serious platform or a meme factory. 🤔🤡

So, Jesse Pollak, the co-founder of Base, decided to spice up his feed by shouting out Soulja Boy’s latest crypto venture. Because nothing says “trustworthy blockchain platform” like a rapper with a history of meme coins that crash harder than my New Year’s resolutions. 🥂💥 In a now-infamous X post, Pollak gushed about Soulja Boy “backing” him on Base, calling it “new internet shit.” Yes, Jesse, it’s definitely shit. 💩

Naturally, the crypto community lost its collective mind. “Why is a Coinbase-backed blockchain buddying up with a guy whose crypto projects have the lifespan of a mayfly?” they asked. Fair point. Soulja Boy’s track record includes 73 crypto projects and 16 NFT collections, most of which went the way of the dodo. 🦖✨

Pollak’s response? Crickets. 🦗 Meanwhile, ZachXBT-crypto’s resident detective-was like, “Hold my coffee, I’m about to expose this mess.” He reminded everyone that Soulja Boy’s crypto ventures are about as reliable as a fidget spinner investment. His question, “Why give SouljaBoy the platform to scam new people?” is the 2025 version of “Who let the dogs out?” 🐶💨

ZachXBT: The Receipt King Crowns Himself

ZachXBT didn’t just call out Soulja Boy; he brought screenshots, timestamps, and probably a PowerPoint presentation. His April 2023 research showed that Soulja Boy’s crypto projects are less “get rich quick” and more “get rug-pulled quicker.” 🚨🧹

The Internet Debates: Is Base a Serious Platform or a Meme Factory?

The backlash sparked a fiery debate. Team Pollak argued, “Base is permissionless! Everyone’s welcome!” Meanwhile, critics were like, “Yeah, but do you really want to be the party host when the guest of honor is a known scammer?” 🎉🚫 Others pointed out that Pollak’s own creator coin launch made his endorsement look… suspicious. 👀

Supporters doubled down: “Base is neutral! It’s just a tool!” Critics fired back: “Tools don’t promote shady tokens linked to celebrities with a history of questionable projects.” Mic drop. 🎤💥

As of now, Pollak’s still radio silent. But the internet? Oh, it’s having a field day. Because in crypto, even a permissionless system can’t escape the court of public opinion. ⚖️🍿
