According to CoinMeta, Cobie indicates that Jesse Pollak deserves to be regarded as a “savior of the blockchain” by Coinbase, and it is pointed out that Base has, to some extent, pioneered the trend of companies building their own blockchains. Although Cobie does not agree with all of Pollak’s views, he believes that this assessment is well-deserved. Cobie emphasizes that Pollak pushed Base from scratch to fruition and believes that the development of this project preceded the Solana meme currency boom in 2023. Even during the bear market following the collapse of FTX, Pollak continued to push the project until its launch. Cobie also mentioned that although Pollak did make some mistakes over the past year, what is worthy of respect is that despite being criticized by Crypto Twitter for a long time, Pollak still continued to work every day.
