According to TechCrunch, Base will initially charge fees in the 10- to 50-cent range – comparable with leading Ethereum layer 2 networks such as Arbitrum and Optimism. And, although still just a testnet, it doesn’t seem like Base will want for early adopters: Established projects including Chainlink, Etherscan, Aave, Animoca Brands, Dune, Nansen, Magic Eden and Wormhole, among others, have signaled support. This is big news considering “Coinbase has no plans to issue a new network token,” as CoinDesk’s Shaurya Malwa put it bluntly.
