Base, Coinbase's Ethereum Layer-2 network, attracts investment due to its seamless integration with Coinbase's vast user base, low fees, and retail-friendly onboarding via fiat bridges.
Retail user inflows drive rapid adoption, with 42% YoY L2 retail growth in 2025 and Base leading in daily active addresses and cumulative users (e.g., 200M+).
TVL growth is explosive, reaching ~$10-12.5B by late 2025 (33% L2 market share), fueled by DeFi apps like Aerodrome and meme coin activity.
This positions Base as a top L2 for accessible, high-growth DeFi exposure.
