Jesse Pollak, the visionary behind Base—an Ethereum Layer 2 blockchain developed by Coinbase—recently took to X (formerly Twitter) to express his enthusiasm about the growing involvement of Chinese builders, creators, and traders in the Base ecosystem. In a post written entirely in Chinese, Pollak shared: "我很高兴看到越来越多的中国建设者、创作者和交易者来到 Base。我知道这条链最初起源于西方，但我们的目标是为所有人而建。每天我都能从中国社区感受到满满的 based 能量。我们一起，从第一天开始。"

For those not fluent in Chinese, this translates to: "I'm thrilled to see more and more Chinese builders, creators, and traders coming to Base. I know this chain originally started in the West, but our goal is to build for everyone. Every day, I feel the full based energy from the Chinese community. Together, from day one."

Base, as an L2 solution, scales Ethereum by processing transactions off the main chain while inheriting its security. This makes it faster and cheaper, ideal for decentralized apps (dApps), NFTs, and yes, meme tokens—which are quirky, community-driven cryptocurrencies often inspired by internet memes. Pollak's message underscores Base's commitment to inclusivity, bridging the gap between Western origins and Eastern adoption in the crypto space.

The post quickly resonated, sparking a wave of replies from the community. One user, @bull_bnb, quipped in Chinese about needing to become a "master holder" first, hinting at the HODL culture in crypto—where "HODL" is a playful misspelling of "hold," meaning to keep assets through market ups and downs. Another, @crypto_bitlord7, praised Pollak's leadership for adapting and advancing the industry.

Notably, the conversation veered into meme territory, which aligns perfectly with what we cover here at Meme Insider. @burdonbase promoted $BURD, a meme token on Base described as a "high-level meme," complete with a fun video clip. Similarly, @Mirocious shouted out $BOMI from Book of Miggles, another Base-based meme project, with an engaging video.

This surge in Chinese participation could supercharge the meme token scene on Base. Meme tokens thrive on community vibes, viral marketing, and cultural crossovers. With China's massive online population and creative flair—think of the explosive growth in WeChat mini-programs or Douyin (TikTok's Chinese counterpart)—we might see innovative meme projects blending Eastern memes with blockchain tech.

Pollak's outreach isn't just lip service; it's a strategic nod to global expansion. Base has already seen hits like $BRETT and $TOSHI, meme tokens that skyrocketed in popularity. By welcoming Chinese talent, Base positions itself as a hub for the next wave of meme innovation, potentially leading to cross-cultural gems that appeal worldwide.

If you're a blockchain practitioner eyeing meme tokens, this is your cue to dive into Base. Check out tools like DexScreener for real-time token data or Base's official docs to start building. The "based energy" Pollak mentions? It's that infectious enthusiasm driving crypto forward, one meme at a time.

As the crypto world flattens, moments like this remind us: Blockchain is borderless. Whether you're in Shanghai or San Francisco, the tools are there to create, trade, and meme your way to the moon. Stay tuned to Meme Insider for more on how global communities are shaping the future of meme tokens.
