Jesse Pollak is the founder and primary face of Base, an Ethereum Layer 2 built by Coinbase, credited with transforming it into one of the most active and accessible L2 ecosystems through relentless community engagement, daily promotion, and support for builders and creators. His consistent shipping, low fees, and developer-first vision have earned widespread respect, though his backing of creator coins, meme tokens, and projects like Soulja Boy's coin—some of which crashed dramatically or proved to be scams—has drawn significant criticism for recklessness and poor judgment despite apparent good intentions.

“Great founder and visionary”I love Jesse particularly because of his interest in African builders. He recently brought Dami to the Base team as the West African regional lead, and I believe this will onboard more people from these regions, create opportunities for Africans in the space and hopefully onboard them.

“Enthusiastic, positive-sum person”Jesse does a great job of shilling Base + artists & founders who use the chain.

“Big responsibilities, somewhat polarizing, but ultimately tries very hard and positive impact”Just like the title says. He's active, although often times in some takes misinformed, it does not come from a place of malice and he genuinely tries to support things and is the eternal optimist. Base's identity and success is the way it is largely due to his influence, and he himself has changed many times over the course of the past 2 years, in my opinion - for the better. The hands-on approach with communities works, it just takes time to yield results!
