Jesse Pollak’s Base Future: Crypto Community Speculates Amid Zora Promotion Frenzy

Base protocol lead Jesse Pollak faces mounting scrutiny as relentless Zora platform promotion raises eyebrows across crypto circles.
The Unstoppable Shill Machine
Pollak's nonstop Zora advocacy triggers speculation about corporate priorities versus protocol development. Industry watchers note the delicate balance between ecosystem growth and perceived favoritism.
Leadership Under Microscope
Base's recent performance metrics clash with Pollak's promotional intensity. The crypto community debates whether this represents visionary ecosystem building or distraction from core protocol responsibilities.
Corporate Crypto Reality Check
When the shilling never stops, someone's usually getting paid—or someone's trying to keep their job. The eternal dance between genuine innovation and corporate survival plays out once again.
This Is Not The First Time Pollak Is Doing All This
Pollak’s been flooding social media with what people are calling an endless stream of “shitcoins.”
Random posts hyping new tokens that usually crash to zero soon after. It’s strange, but it’s not the first time he’s done this kind of thing.
Since the early days of Base, he’s always been active in random coin communities. Chatting with traders, even buying NFTs himself. It made him likable among the community back then, but most of those moves haven’t aged well, and it makes the whole “future of crypto” vision look shaky.
What Jesse’s doing with Zora — pushing creative tokens — isn’t necessarily wrong. He’s not forcing anyone to buy. Still, it doesn’t sit right with many people. One of the tokens he shilled, called Dominos, shot up to a $200K market cap before crashing back to zero within 24 hours. His pitch is all about “fans collecting for fun” and “content going viral,” but for many, it just feels like another pump-and-dump.
Having watched both the video and reading Jesse’s stupid posts I have come to one conclusion:
Jesse Pollak should’ve fired from Base/Coinbase https://t.co/biAFGKIxaX
