hello buildooors! I have an hour to do an AMA on all things Base (base.org). ask away and I'll try to answer as many as possible
Why base over any other L2 solution? Will BASE integrate into Coinbase wallet?
What was working with the OP-stack like? Would base have been possible without it?
How long did it take to go from 0 --> release candidate for base? Basically I'm wondering: how long does it take to build an L2
What's different about Base vs the OP L2 from a developers standpoint?
What does base need to do to achieve credible decentralization? How far away do you think that is?
How long has this been in the making? Why Optimism over Arbitrum? Whatâs your favorite use case for this in the next 12 months?
What does "accessing Coinbase's 100M+ users" look like in practice for developers?
Can you say more about how Base implements account abstraction and some of the use cases you are excited about?
Great work! So how could the OP stack running on different chains be interoperable? Would it allow for wallets that work on both? Would bridging between be safer and a piece of cake? Case where contracts only needed to be deployed once to the stack?
gm jesse - saw in your post that the ideal vision for Base is to create a superchain able to sequence any L2 built using the OP stack - what are some benefits of a Superchain for the end-user?
Does Coinbase intend to build any public good-type projects on Base or primarily fund others via the ecosystem fund?
> We expect that there will be many rollups with significant activity, serving as âhubsâ for different ecosystems. Which types of ecosystems do you think Base will uniquely be able to serve best as a hub? Which ones would you be most excited to see personally?
Who can I best reach out to to discuss on-chain settlements of cross-border e-commerce txs?
Contracts on the launch and âcritical receptionâ. Non tech Q. When someone said âhow about bringing on a billion usersâ as a tagline ⌠did no one say âwhat us too?â. Itâs becoming a meme in itself that phrase.
How would you describe the trust model today vs. the (planned) trust model 1 year from now?
What are the biggest pain points for developers to build dapps from Baseâs view? And how will the prioritization of easing those pain points be done?
Whatâs gonna happen when someone deploys Tornado Cash to it?
Will bridged ERC20 tokens on Base support permit like Arbitrum, or omit support for it like Optimism?
