Founder of Blur: Paradigm never participated in developing marketing strategies for Blast, and the invitation reward is not a marketing gimmick but a deserved reward for users.

BlockBeats reported on November 25th that Pacman, the founder of Blur and Blast, responded to various comments, stating that Blast's earnings come from legitimate platforms such as Lido and MakerDAO. The earnings from Lido come from Ethereum's staking rewards, while MakerDAO's earnings come from on-chain treasury bills. Pacman also addressed comments regarding Blast's referral rewards. He strongly asserted that the system is not a marketing gimmick for growth, but a strategic measure to promote community development. He acknowledged the contributions made by users in expanding the ecosystem, which are worthy of reward. Furthermore, regarding comments that "Paradigm is the true entity behind the project launch," Pacman stated that the cryptocurrency investment company has never been involved in Blast's marketing strategy. If Paradigm were to participate, they might require many changes to Blast's strategy. Paradigm has already requested changes to the post-launch plan, and these changes are under consideration, but the Blast team will make the final decision.
