Coinbase lança Blockchain básico para usuários
- A Coinbase acredita que sua disputa com a SEC não afetará seus planos para a Base.
- Mais de 100 aplicativos estão supostamente prontos para serem lançados no Base.
- A equipe Base não tem planos de introduzir um token nativo.
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 lançado 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.
Curiosamente, várias equipes do Web3 anunciaram planos para lançar aplicativos para o Base. O mundo das criptomoedas mostrou grande entusiasmo desde que a Coinbase anunciou planos para lançar o novo serviço na semana passada. Cerca de 100 aplicativos estão supostamente configurados para serem implantados no novo serviço 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 explicou que o novo serviço faz parte de sua estratégia de atrair milhões de pessoas para o Web3, exibindo outros aspectos do blockchain além das criptomoedas. Pollak acrescentou ainda que o Base não teria nenhum token nativo, o que ele afirma impedir que o foco esteja nos desenvolvedores e em seu trabalho.
Pollak disse em um comunicado,
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
A Coinbase lançou seu novo serviço em meio a uma disputa em andamento com a Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) dos EUA. No entanto, Pollak acredita que o disputa não interromperá os planos com o 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.
Cobri algumas histórias interessantes em minha carreira como jornalista e acho as histórias relacionadas ao blockchain muito intrigantes. Acredito que a Web3 vai mudar o mundo e quero que todos façam parte dele.
