What makes Base different?
Base is Coinbase’s Layer-2 (L2) network for scaling Ethereum. It’s built for builders and aims to bring the next billion users onchain. Its seamless integration with Coinbase makes it easy to reach its wide user base.
Powered by Optimism’s open-source OP Stack, Base is an optimistic rollup. Base plans to be increasingly decentralized in the next few years and eventually become part of Optimism’s “superchain” of L2s.
