- Zespół Base nie ma w planach wprowadzenia natywnego tokena.
US-based crypto exchange Coinbase has launched the mainnet for Base, marking a new era where public companies operate their own distributed chains. Base is Coinbase’s Ethereum layer-2 network, which the exchange claims will help the development of millions of decentralized applications.
Coinbase announced on Wednesday, August 9, that the Base network was ready to onboard users after spending weeks in an “open for builders only” phase. Coinbase originally uruchomiona Base in a beta version in February. Last month, Base launched its mainnet for builders. However, Coinbase noted that the new service was not ready for the broader crypto community at the time. However, today’s launch means that Base is now available to the public.
Co ciekawe, kilka zespołów Web3 ogłosiło plany wydania aplikacji dla Base. Świat krypto wykazał ogromny entuzjazm, odkąd Coinbase ogłosił plany uruchomienia nowej usługi w zeszłym tygodniu. Podobno około 100 aplikacji ma zostać wdrożonych w nowej usłudze blockchain.
Jesse Pollak, Coinbase’s senior director of engineering, expressed delight at the response to the new service. He remarked that “it’s incredibly exciting that there’s been so much energy and appetite for folks to come and use Base, even before we publicly launched.”
Pollak wyjaśnił, że nowa usługa jest częścią jego strategii przyciągania milionów ludzi do Web3 poprzez wyświetlanie innych aspektów blockchain innych niż kryptowaluty. Pollak dodał ponadto, że Base nie miałby żadnych natywnych tokenów, co, jak twierdzi, uniemożliwia skupienie się na programistach i ich pracy.
Pollak powiedział w oświadczeniu,
Historically, the aperture of what people can do with crypto has been relatively limited, mostly speculation. In order for Coinbase and crypto and this work that we’re doing to have the impact that we all want, we need to move from the place where this is speculation to a place where this is integrated into every part of someone’s day-to-day existence.
According to Pollak, Coinbase wants its users to see Base “an opportunity for growth and expansion.” However, Pollak explained that crypto exchange believes “it’s really important that we incubate and curate a Base native community where folks who are really building base first, and creating for this new kind of world.”
Some executives believe that Coinbase’s new business initiative might eventually enable it to generate fees from operating its own blockchain. In addition, the crypto exchange could also enjoy a lucrative source of income from applications created on top of it.
Coinbase believes the SEC case won’t affect Base
Coinbase uruchomił nową usługę w ramach toczącego się sporu z amerykańską Komisją Papierów Wartościowych i Giełd (SEC). Pollak uważa jednak, że spór nie zakłóci planów z Base.
Pollak noted that the SEC’s action targets aspects of Coinbase’s business that are unrelated to Base, which eliminates any concern of interference.
