PANews reported on January 27th that Base co-founder Jesse Pollak stated on the X platform that the Base core team will not "secretly pump and dump" Base ecosystem tokens, privately coordinate and deploy funds to actively drive up asset prices to achieve specific goals. This would actively harm other assets, be unrepeatable or unsustainable, violate Base's values ​​of a free and open market, and could potentially be illegal. Base can and will promote the distribution and promotion of high-quality assets and applications. Base—and all markets—should be free, open, and fair, and my responsibility is to ensure this remains unchanged.
