According to reports, Base co-founder Jesse was criticized by the community yesterday for channeling RUG tokens for the notorious Soulja Boy on social media and providing financial support, sparking strong backlash. ZachXBT questioned why provide a platform for Soulja Boy to scam new users?

ZachXBT had previously revealed in April 2023 that Soulja Boy is one of the most shameless promoters in the crypto community. In my research, I found that he has been involved in 73 promotions and 16 NFT projects, many of which turned out to be scams.

Jesse has also promoted various MEME coins, such as the Base is for everyone incident (which surged to a market value of 20 million and then plummeted by 90%) token and his personal token jesse (referred to by the community as the most failed fair launch in Base history). The tokens he promotes often experience short-term speculative hype, but their long-term performance and investment returns are not stable.
