Tintin Joins Base: Graceful Success at Token2049 and Secrets to Building on Base

In the buzzing world of crypto conferences, Token2049 stands out as a hotspot for networking, innovation, and sometimes, unexpected viral moments. Recently, a tweet from Julie (@juliezize) highlighted one such gem: introducing Tintin (@Tintinx2021) to Jesse Pollak (@jessepollak), the head builder at Base. This simple act turned into a celebration of grace, community, and the playful spirit that defines much of the meme token scene on Base.

The Viral Video That Started It All

Tintin's journey into the spotlight began with a clever video posted during the conference. Titled "Base Successful Woman Guide," it cleverly parodies self-help advice for women, twisting it into a promo for Base. The slogan? "Ditch the Drama. Build on Base." In the clip, Tintin, dressed stylishly, poses with Jesse Pollak at the Base booth, listing three things to ditch: pinching shoes (uncomfortable commitments), a man without you in his heart (bad investments?), and drama-creating friends (toxic communities).

Then, she flips it to three must-haves for success:

  • A Base Name to prove your identity and flex your presence in the ecosystem.
  • A Base App that's always ready to open, keeping things safe and accessible.
  • A Base Heart to house your passion, always open to new opportunities.

This light-hearted take resonated hugely, racking up thousands of views and likes. It's a perfect example of how meme culture infiltrates serious blockchain tech—using humor to make complex ideas like layer-2 scaling on Ethereum (that's what Base is, a user-friendly layer built by Coinbase) feel approachable and fun.

Julie's Strategic Introduction

Julie, a builder in the Base community (julie.base.eth), shared that inviting Tintin to meet Jesse was one of her best moves at Token2049. She praised Tintin's "effortless grace" that won over Crypto Twitter (CT). Echoing the video, Julie outlined the "secret to her success":

  1. Own a Base name.
  2. Download the Base app.
  3. Have a Base heart.

Ending with a warm "welcome to base tintin💙💙," the tweet sparked positive replies, including from Jesse himself thanking for the intro. This interaction underscores Base's focus on community building, where personal connections can lead to broader adoption, especially in the meme token space where virality is key.

Community Reactions and Meme Vibes

The thread didn't stop there. Replies poured in, celebrating Tintin's charm and the growing Base culture. One user, @NoBanksNearby, shared a creative image captioning it "She built a strong Base in CT's heart!"—a nod to how personalities like Tintin are becoming memes themselves, driving engagement in the ecosystem.

This kind of organic buzz is gold for meme tokens on Base, where projects often launch with community-driven narratives and humorous twists to capture attention amid the noise.

Why This Matters for Meme Tokens on Base

Base has emerged as a hotbed for meme tokens, thanks to its low fees, fast transactions, and integration with Coinbase's user base. Moments like this at Token2049 highlight how influencers and builders are blending entertainment with education to onboard more people. Tintin's guide isn't just funny—it's a subtle tutorial on getting started with Base, which could inspire new users to explore meme projects like those leveraging Base's tools for decentralized apps and tokens.

If you're new to Base, think of it as Ethereum's friendly cousin: cheaper gas fees mean more room for experimenting with memes without breaking the bank.
