TL;DR from the event A new Day One (+ code for access to Base App)

New updates:

• New Base Stack + rebranding
• The Base App (ex CoinBase Wallet)
• Base Account and Base Pay

1. New Base Stack + rebranding
- Added Flashbloks, which speed up transactions 10 times - from 2 seconds to 200ms
- Base Build: a new unified dashboard for creating, launching, promoting, and monetising mini-apps

• New square logo symbolising capabilities and community. Launch of brand.base.org website for community creativity

2. The Base App 
- Integration of Farcaster as a way to monetise each post. Each post is a coin that can be purchased 
- Trade directly in the feed: your friends' purchases are displayed in the feed — you can buy this token immediately with one click 
- Mini-apps: added anticipated mini-apps from Noice, Remix, and others 
- USDC Tap-to-Pay: one-click on-chain payment via NFC
- Built on XMTP: this helps keep your actions confidential in chats, transfers, etc.

3. Base Account and Base Pay
- Base Account: a universal on-chain login (‘Sign-in with Base’) that helps you log in quickly without gas fees
- Base Pay: USDC payments for one-click payments in everyday life (in shops, restaurants, etc.). They promise access to over 1 million places where you can pay with Base Pay

• ACCESS TO THE BASE APP - https://wallet.coinbase.com/beta/VD0V7PJP

MY OPINION:

Great updates that will really help Base grow but there are still some nuances

• Flashblocks help to execute transactions instantly, which is useful for gaming and real-time finance. The update is already working in some places, which is great, but gas on the network is at an all-time high - $0.05 and more per transaction
• Base Pay is a great tool for convenient direct payments via cryptocurrency, but it is unclear whether it will work in countries other than the USA. 
• Base App is a great update that showcases many ecosystem projects to a new audience (mini-app integration). It is also convenient to communicate and use Base App for exchange and secure storage.

Base - Farcaster - Degen will change my life 🧘
