According to ChainCatcher, Base co-founder Jesse attracted attention and invested funds by issuing the RUG token for the notorious Soulja Boy on social media yesterday, sparking strong criticism from the community. ZachXBT questioned, "Why give Soulja Boy a platform to scam new users?" As early as April 2023, ZachXBT had already revealed, "Soulja Boy is one of the most blatant promoters in the crypto community. In my research, I found that he participated in 73 promotions and 16 NFT project launches, many of which were scams." Jesse has also promoted various MEME coins, such as the "Base is for everyone" incident (which soared to a market cap of 20 millions and then quickly dropped by 90%) and his personal token jesse (which the community calls the most failed fair launch in Base's history). The tokens he promotes often experience short-term speculative hype, but their long-term performance and investment returns are unstable.

ChainCatcher reported that HolmesAI, an AI Agent platform focused on the “AI + Digital Twin” sector, has successfully completed a new round of strategic financing totaling $5 million. This round saw participation from institutions including Bitrise Capital, CatcherVC, Cryptomeria Capital, Generative Ventures, and IBG Capital. According to HolmesAI, the platform has now surpassed 1 million registered users, with more than 1.56 million Personas created and 36.36 million interactions recorded. Through its Persona system, the platform deeply replicates users’ tone, knowledge, and decision-making logic, aiming to create digital twins. The $5 million raised in this round will mainly be used to advance the assetization and versatility of digital twins, with plans to use blockchain technology for rights confirmation and to extend the core engine from social scenarios to trading and prediction markets, empowering investment decisions. Additionally, the platform plans to soon launch stablecoin pre-deposit and NFT sales activities. Kevin, co-founder of Bitrise Capital, stated that he believes everyone will have a value-appreciating AI twin in the future and is optimistic about HolmesAI’s forward-looking exploration in defining the era of “digital twins.” HolmesAI is an AI Agent platform dedicated to enabling everyone to have their own digital twin. Through its unique Persona system, HolmesAI helps users replicate their thinking and intelligence to create an AI Agent that most closely resembles themselves, granting true ownership and profit rights over their digital twin.
