Base, a layer-2 scaling solution for Ethereum powered by Optimism technology, has generated a cumulative revenue exceeding $10 million since its inception in early August 2023. This achievement was celebrated by Erick Smith, the Chief Investment Officer of 401 Financial, on social media on November 28th, referencing data from Token Terminal showcasing the revenues’ steady growth. Beyond the impressive revenue expansion noted in late November, the platform boasts an average of over a million active monthly users.
The growth of Base’s revenue showcases the rising popularity of layer-2 solutions in the blockchain community. This is mainly attributable to Ethereum’s default scaling solutions, such as Rollups, which are pivotal in enhancing user experiences and moderating gas fees in the mainnet. Given Base has lowest transaction costs as compared to mainnet, this advantage has boosted its preference among developers and users. Notably, among protocols looking for scalable environments, Base has become particularly sought after due to its facility in launching quickly at relatively lower gas fees. Its benefits have even inspired leading DeFi protocol Aave and the decentralized social media platform Friend.tech to launch their ventures on Base.
