What Is Base Blockchain?

Base is an Ethereum Layer 2 (L2) blockchain launched in August 2023 by Coinbase, one of the largest cryptocurrency exchanges in the world. Built on the Ethereum ecosystem and powered by the Optimism OP Stack, Base is designed to tackle the increasing demand for scalability and lower transaction fees within decentralized networks.

By leveraging Ethereum’s security while operating on its own optimized layer, Base enables faster and cheaper transactions — reducing gas fees by up to 90% compared to Ethereum mainnet. Within its first six months after mainnet launch, Base processed over 200 million transactions and attracted more than 2 million unique wallets, solidifying its position as one of the most active Layer 2 networks.
