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 Iβd 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 Iβve contributed to. We built something real β and itβs still early.
Some moments Iβm 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 Baseβs 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
Whatβs next: A new chapter.
Iβve spent over a decade in crypto, and I believe thereβs never been a better time to build β AI tooling is unlocking an incredible, new wave of opportunity.
Iβm dedicating myself to building even more.
Iβm grateful to Jesse, the Base core team, and the many talented people at Coinbase. Working alongside them is something Iβll always be proud of.
Stay tuned. :) 34 replies
