Base Chain
THORChain connected Blockchain
Base is an Ethereum layer-2 blockchain developed by Coinbase, aimed at making transactions cheaper and faster while leveraging Ethereum's security. It uses optimistic rollups to batch transactions off-chain before settling them on Ethereum, reducing costs for users. This makes it ideal for everyday applications like NFTs and gaming.
The native token for Base is ETH, as it inherits from Ethereum, but it supports various tokens through its ecosystem. Base focuses on user-friendly onboarding, especially for newcomers via Coinbase's wallet integration. It promotes scalability without compromising on decentralization inherited from the main Ethereum network.
