Vitalik Buterin praises Base, Ethereum's layer two solution, as a secure and efficient model for future projects.
He highlights two crucial points: the decentralization of the core, which ensures the security of funds using Ethereum itself, and the centralization of the UX for faster transactions and lower fees. The co-founder of Ethereum emphasizes that, even with Coinbase managing the sequencer, it does not have custody of users' funds, which prevents theft. Base has already accumulated nearly US$ 5 billion in total value locked (TVL) and is in Security Stage 1, implementing mechanisms like the "Escape Hatch" to protect users' funds.
This shows that Base is a reference for how L2s can be secure and efficient.
