Live since 9 August 2023, about 3 years. Machine-drafted, not yet checked by a person.

Hot: upgrade or launch liveFull record

Base is a public blockchain network made by the company Coinbase that anyone can use. Of the 4 things it promised, it delivered 2, 2 are still open (2 with no date); nothing dated is coming up.

This week in the news: upgrade or launch live.

A real job. Delivered 2 of 4, none late. Nothing dated ahead. Nothing to be careful of on the record.

Is it real?

  • Real backingA named investor, an index, a major exchange, or a billion-dollar size.
  • Something aheadAhead: 2 of 4 promises delivered
  • Room to growWorth at least four times less than the biggest coin doing the same job, so the gap is real, not a guess.

Four tests, printed. Passing all four means a real job, real backing, something ahead, and a price far below the leader of its group. A filter on facts, never a verdict.

Every line has a source: the coin's own listing, CoinGecko's tags, the record, or the news feed. Reputation here is a count, never an opinion.

Cheaper transactions on top of ethereum

7 coins we checked say they are for cheaper transactions on top of Ethereum, worth $3.34B together. .

No shared purpose group on file yet.

What it is

Base is a public blockchain network made by the company Coinbase that anyone can use.

Problem it says it solves: cheaper transactions on top of Ethereum. 9 coins we have checked say the same; together they are worth $4,330,706,508.

Each bar is a coin's worth today (price × coins out), longest first. The lit bar is this coin; grey bars are the others doing the same job.

What should make me careful?

Nothing printed today

None of the six tests fails. A missed promise counts only on a record a person has checked.

The tests: nothing to hold it for, more missed than delivered, priced ahead of its record, half the supply still to come, rivals ship while it does not, a big release of coins soon.

The homework: the coin itself, the news, the record

That is worth knowing before buying. A coin nobody needs is priced on hope.
