Controversy has erupted in the Base blockchain community after its official Twitter account promoted the newly launched token, GrokCoin, leading to frustration among established builders who feel ignored. GrokCoin was previously questioned for its legitimacy and association with Elon Musk's AI chatbot, Grok. Despite the controversy, Base publicly supported the project. Developers who have spent months building applications on Base expressed frustration with the lack of recognition from the platform's official channels. Some defended Base's actions, suggesting that GrokCoin's affiliation with Elon Musk could benefit Ethereum's ecosystem. The dispute highlights tensions between developers and platform operators over project visibility. Base's leadership now faces pressure to clarify its promotional policies and address dissatisfaction among builders who feel overshadowed by hype-driven projects.
