Baker and Voiceverse's initial relationship was met with skepticism and largely critical reception. Critics also discussed the environmental impact and potential for exit scams associated with NFT transactions. "You can hate it." Commentators also pointed to Baker's first tweet announcing the relationship, which concluded with the remark "You can hate it." Or you can design.What'll it be?"

Baker said he loved people who shared their thoughts and their responses, which had "giving [him] a lot to think about."
