  1. Migration to Base

What is Base?

Base is built as an Ethereum L2, with the security, stability, and scalability needed to power onchain apps.

Scaled by Coinbase

is an easy way for decentralised apps to leverage Coinbase’s products and distribution. Seamless Coinbase integrations, easy fiat onramps, and access to the $130B assets on platform in the Coinbase ecosystem.

The Best of Ethereum but 10X Cheaper

No code changes needed. Base is EVM equivalent, so all of our code, tools, and infrastructure work out of the box. Base’s rollup architecture reduces costs by 10x for users.

Big Features, Small Fees

Get the EVM environment at a fraction of the cost. Get early access to Ethereum features like Account Abstraction (ERC4337), simple developer APIs for gasless transactions, and smart contract wallets.

Ethereum L2

We can confidently deploy any EVM codebase and onramp our users and assets from Ethereum L1, Coinbase, and other interoperable chains.

OP Stack

Base is powered by Optimism's OP Stack, making it one of the most secure, scalable EVM L2s out there. The OP Stack is an open-source public good that will serve as the foundation for a “superchain” of L2s that share interoperability, sequencing, and governance.
