Jesse Pollak Leaves Base Leadership After Failed Social Strategy

Base creator Jesse Pollak said he is stepping back from leading the app after taking responsibility for one of the biggest mistakes in the network’s history. He admitted that his bet on on-chain social economy had failed to drive crypto adoption like he thought it would. After months of reflection and a week of listening to community feedback, Pollak shared his thoughts on Base’s tough 2026. He <a href="https://x.com/i/status/2077427261586997745" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">described</a> the first quarter as a “punch in the face,” noting that he had spent 2024 and 2025 betting on two ideas that he believed would push the app forward. Base’s long-term strategy was made on the assumption that builders would unlock the next wave of crypto adoption and that this, in turn, would come through on-chain social experiences such as creator platforms, messaging and content. Looking back, Pollak now says only half of his theory was right. According to him, builders did drive the next adoption phase, which was seen in how stablecoins, prediction markets, perp trading and tokenization gained momentum. But social platforms didn’t experience the same level of success, with projects like Farcaster, Zora, mini apps and creator coins <a href="https://cryptopotato.com/farcaster-ditches-social-graph-embraces-on-chain-wallet-as-core-product/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">failing</a> to achieve widespread adoption. “The entire social side of the market that many of us had been building towards disintegrated completely…I was wrong” he wrote. The crypto firm <a href="https://cryptopotato.com/base-launches-tokenized-everything-app-for-social-trading-and-payments/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">launched</a> the Base App in 2025 as a rebrand from its Coinbase Wallet into an “everything app” that combines social networking, trading, messaging, AI tools and creator monetization. However, Pollak admits that the focus on social products left the network struggling to catch up with its competitors. People also lost confidence in the platform, he said, while critics were quick to remind him of every mistake. The Base founder said that he is handing back the app’s leadership to Coinbase so he can focus on the blockchain itself. Jordan Fish, popularly known as Cobie, will now take over his position and lead the product’s next chapter. “We’re going to build Base into the Blockchain for global finance and do everything we can to be the place that the world’s money settles over the next century,”he said. Pollak added that his new mission was to make Base a blockchain that powers global finance, which he says is where crypto’s biggest opportunity now lies. The network’s priorities for the rest of the year will focus on three main areas, including trading, payments and AI agents. The statement ended with him saying that Base isn’t expecting an easy road ahead, with growing competition from companies like Robinhood and Stripe heating up. But instead of expecting users lo

Polygon CEO announces job cuts amid Coinme acquisition

The round of layoffs was part of Polygon transitioning operations to payments following a $250 million deal to acquire Coinme and Sequence in January. Marc Boiron, CEO of Polygon Labs, announced additional layoffs as the company finalizes its acquisition of cryptocurrency exchange Coinme. In a Thursday X post, Boiron <a href="https://x.com/0xMarcB/status/2077734931434790989" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">said</a> that Polygon would say “goodbye to many of [its] colleagues” as the company began the “transformation from operating as a blockchain foundation into operating as a blockchain-enabled payments company.” The move was part of a $250 million deal announced in January for Polygon to acquire Coinme and wallet infrastructure platform Sequence. “These changes are about the company we’re building, not the quality of the people leaving,” said Boiron. “A blockchain foundation and a blockchain-enabled payments company do not operate the same way. This transition means changing how we’re organized and the talent we need, not just what we build.” <em>Source: </em><a href="https://x.com/0xMarcB/status/2077734931434790989" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"><em>Marc Boiron</em></a> The employee cuts followed rounds of layoffs <a href="https://techcrunch.com/2024/02/01/polygon-labs-lays-off-60-employees-about-19-of-its-staff-ceo-says/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">announced</a> by Boiron in the last three years, affecting more than 200 people. Cointelegraph reached out to Polygon for specifics on the layoffs but did not receive an immediate response.

Alpaca raises $135M to fund tokenized agent-first infrastructure

The BNP-backed brokerage infrastructure provider is expanding into tokenized markets and AI-native financial services as both DeFi and TradFi companies pursue onchain business. Brokerage infrastructure provider Alpaca said Thursday that it raised $135 million in a funding round led by Peak XV, along with as much as $300 million in debt financing from Kraken parent Payward and BMO. A January Series D round pulled in $150 million that brought the fintech’s value to $1.15 billion, according to the <a href="https://alpaca.markets/blog/alpaca-raises-135-million-to-scale-agent-first-brokerage-infrastructure-for-tokenized-markets-and-ai-native-financial-services/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">statement</a>. Earlier investors include the venture capital arm of BNP Paribas. Alpaca said it will use the new financing to accelerate its agent-first brokerage and API-first prime brokerage infrastructure. “As tokenization reshapes access to global markets and AI accelerates the creation of new financial applications and market participants, demand is growing for regulated infrastructure built for this paradigm shift,” said Yoshi Yokokawa, co-founder and CEO of Alpaca. The <a href="https://cointelegraph.com/news/tokenized-stocks-rise-23b-all-time-high" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">global market capitalization of tokenized stocks</a> is at a record $2.3 billion, data aggregator Token Terminal shared in a Wednesday X post. More crypto platforms are bringing traditional investment products onto blockchain rails, in many cases opening up assets to investors outside of the United States. Last month, <a href="https://cointelegraph.com/news/binance-partnership-tokenized-stock-custodian-alpaca" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Binance disclosed a revenue-sharing arrangement</a> with Alpaca, which provides brokerage, clearing and custody infrastructure for Binance’s stock trading product.
