[Base Co-Founder: The Base Core Team Will Not Secretly Manipulate Market Trends, Will Promote the Distribution and Exposure of Quality Assets and Applications] Foresight News reports that Base co-founder Jesse Pollak responded to a community user's opinion that 'Base Meme urgently needs a true leader; the solution is actually very simple—select a community and support price trends behind the scenes.' Pollak tweeted, 'The Base core team will not secretly manipulate market trends. If you mean privately/secretly coordinating funds to actively push up asset prices to achieve specific goals, such actions would actively harm the rights of other assets; are unsustainable and difficult to maintain long-term; violate the values of a free and open market that we advocate; and are highly likely to break the law. What we can and will do is promote the distribution and exposure of quality assets and applications. In this regard, we still have significant room for improvement.'
