Building Networks That People Actually Use
summary
Base reports 1B+ transactions and measures a 15x throughput increase with a 100x cost reduction (median tx ≈ $0.0025). Growth depends on developer virality, Coinbase distribution, and the OP Stack plus blobs, fault proofs, 4844 and pias for data availability. Roadmap names a Giga-gas target: from 2.5 megagas → 17 megagas now, aiming for 200 megagas then 1 gigagas, increasing capacity by +1 megagas per week. Priorities: smart wallets, onchain identity/social graphs, and payment+social products.
