The only man that can fix @base
Of course, if @brian_armstrong cuts all ties to “bad” actors and focuses on keeping BNKR on base.
But history has shown us that Coinbase will do everything but the right move.
In my opinion, this BNKR migration shouldn’t be on Base.
Base has been declining, and I don’t see it reviving anytime soon with this leadership.
toady's a good guy and this isn't about him. but clanker, where a community member fair launched $BNKR, now has jerry pan (@stambouli_o1) behind the scenes with a stake in the protocol. his track record speaks for itself: botted engagement, and 95% of the o1 airdrop routed to team wallets (receipts: teapawt.org/votesa/status/20698562…).
i'm not comfortable with our token living there. over the coming weeks we'll lay out a plan to migrate $BNKR, and other bankr-launched coins on clanker will have the option to migrate too. in hindsight we should have done this months ago. now it's clear it has to happen.
so far in 2026 bankr has done more launchpad volume than every other launchpad on base combined. but launchpads are a brutal business. platforms change hands, and their incentives change with them. builders deserve a home that won't be sold out from under them.
our thesis hasn't changed: tokens are the best way for ambitious founders to raise capital and attention from the market, instantly. we'll keep onboarding and backing builders like we always have, and we'll keep shipping.

Always someone has to be the bigger fish
I used to work at @bubblemaps. Here's the contract they never disclosed.
@JoinProxima builds tools to help bundlers stay undetected by Bubblemaps.
Since April 2025, Proxima has also been paying Bubblemaps $45,000 a month for advice on "automated clustering parameters" and "block-level bundle processing visibility".
