After 2+ years helping support the launch and growth of Base, this month has been my last month at Coinbase.
Earlier this month, I shared that I’d be leaving the core Base team to pursue new opportunities in the space.
Taking Base from testnet launch to one of the leading L2s on L2Beat with $10B+ in TVL has been one of the most meaningful things I’ve contributed to. We built something real — and it’s still early.
Some moments I’m proud to have been part of:
* Helped launch Base testnet and mainnet
* Scaled Base Discord and /base on Farcaster from a few thousand to 400k+
* Helped lead Onchain Summer and Base Around the World buildathons with 20k+ participants
* Helped maintain the Superchain Token List for bridging tokens from Ethereum to Base
* Supported work on base.org, docs.base.org, and Base’s node software
* Was involved in scaling gas targets 10x to help keep fees low amidst record usage
* Helped maintain status.base.org during maintenance and incidents
* Participated in events like Devcon, ETHBerlin, and ETHGlobal representing Base
* Helped support thousands of developers building onchain for the first time
What’s next: A new chapter.
I’ve spent over a decade in crypto, and I believe there’s never been a better time to build — AI tooling is unlocking an incredible, new wave of opportunity.
I’m dedicating myself to building even more.
I’m grateful to Jesse, the Base core team, and the many talented people at Coinbase. Working alongside them is something I’ll always be proud of.
Stay tuned. :) 34 replies

🌐 Base Builder Network Update 🌐
Over the past 3 months, I’ve had the privilege of reviewing 700+ applications to the Base Builder Network - and let me tell you: the builders, creators, organizers and voices showing up on Base are absolutely killing it 🙌
From solo devs shipping weekend MVPs to seasoned founders launching full-fledged protocols, the range, creativity, and energy across the ecosystem is unreal. Whether it’s DeFi, gaming, art, infra, or onchain social - the diversity of ideas and execution is nothing short of inspiring 🫡
It’s clear: Base isn’t just a chain - it’s a movement, a place to be and the people building here are setting the tone for the future of our world 🌍
Big love to everyone putting in the work. If you are based or interested in becoming based - come join the Network 🌐 0 reply
