šŸ”„ BREAKING: Coinbase’s Base Network Hits ā€˜Stage 1’ – A Major Leap Toward Decentralization! šŸ”„


Coinbase’s Layer 2 Base Network just achieved Stage 1 decentralization per L2Beat’s rigorous framework – and this is huge for the future of onchain finance. šŸ’„


🧠 What Does Stage 1 Mean?

Base has now:




Enabled permissionless validation šŸš€




Removed all upgrade keys from core contracts šŸ”




Taken a big step away from centralized control 🧱




L2Beat ranks L2s from Stage 0 āž”ļø Stage 2:




Stage 0: Fully centralized




Stage 1: Some decentralization, still some risks




Stage 2: Fully decentralized, censorship-resistant




Base is now officially off training wheels šŸ›ž – and that’s bullish not just for Coinbase, but for all of Ethereum L2 adoption.


šŸ’¬ Why It Matters:

This means less trust required in Coinbase and more trust in code and consensus – exactly what crypto stands for. 🧬

And with over $1.4B in TVL, Base is rapidly becoming a serious player in the L2 wars alongside Arbitrum, Optimism, and zkSync.



šŸ“¢ Decentralization isn’t a meme – it’s a mission. And Base just leveled up.
