1/ Everyone’s hyped about zk this, zk that...
Meanwhile **Base** is just *shipping quietly*. 🧱
Here’s why it might be the L2 everyone ends up using — without even realizing it. 🧵
2/ Built by **Coinbase**, Base runs on the **OP Stack**, the same tech behind Optimism.
That means it’s fast, cheap, and fully EVM-compatible — no weird code rewrites or dev pain.
3/ The best part?
No native token.
You pay gas in **ETH**, keeping things simple and aligned with Ethereum’s ecosystem.
4/ Everyone else is dropping tokens to attract users.
Base is doing the opposite:
→ Focus on *builders*
→ Focus on *real usage*
→ Focus on *long-term adoption*
5/ This isn’t a degen playground — it’s a bridge.
Coinbase has millions of users ready to move on-chain.
Base gives them a clean, safe, scalable path to do it. 🌉
6/ Think about it: one of crypto’s biggest exchanges is now running its own L2.
That’s not just another rollup — that’s *infrastructure with reach*.
