Base caught my attention for its commitment to providing a secure, low-cost, and developer-friendly layer-2 solution on Ethereum. As a fan of Optimism, I was naturally drawn to what Base has to offer. The project's backing by Coinbase adds a significant layer of credibility and financial stability, which is a strong point in its favour.
While Base has made progress in on-chain activity with the launch of BaseSwap, it's mostly forks of existing Ethereum projects, which raises questions about the longevity of the platform.
Base aims to be closely aligned with Ethereum, offering compatibility and ease of migration for developers - so what's it bring to the table that's unique...?? I'm also a fan of Chainlink, so seeing this news earlier in the year bode well for the future and more expansive capabilities to come.
In conclusion, Base is a project that shows promise due to a range of features and has strong financial backing, but questions remain regarding its innovation and financial transparency.
I find Base to be a project worth watching, but for now, it earns a balanced 4/5 stars from me... worth keeping an eye on for sure! Show Less
