Visit the Bitget DApp browserBase, or Base Network, is an Ethereum Layer 2 (L2) network developed by Coinbase, which serves as a sanctuary for Coinbase's on-chain offerings and an open space for innovation. Designed as a secure, cost-effective, and approachable platform for developing decentralized apps (DApps), it merges Ethereum's inherent security with Coinbase's best practices. This blend creates a robust platform for developers transitioning from Coinbase, Ethereum L1, or other compatible chains. With seamless Coinbase product integration, easy fiat access, and powerful acquisition strategies, Base is tailored to embrace the vast Coinbase ecosystem.
Base ETH stands for the Ether (ETH) on the Base blockchain. Ethereum and Base are two completely different blockchains, so they have their own version of ETH. You can bridge your ETH on the Ethereum mainnet to the Base mainnet by using any bridging protocol or swap your ETH to Base ETH by using Bitget Swap in your Bitget Wallet.
Base does not have a native token yet, but it allows for sending and receiving tokens like ETH, USDT, and USDC on its mainnet. If you do not have any tokens on the Base mainnet, you may purchase them with fiat currency via Bitget Wallet OTC service. Base is expected to have a native token for governance, incentivization, and protocol upgrades when it becomes fully decentralized. Early contributors of Base, such as validators, users, and donors, may potentially receive the native token as a reward through airdrop in the future.
Base is currently available on the mainnet and can be accessed through Bitget Wallet, which allows for creating crypto wallets on either blockchain and conducting transactions with available tokens.
The simplest way to start using Base is by creating a Base Bitget Wallet, which can be installed via Google Play, App Store, or Chrome extension. After installation, create a crypto wallet on the Base mainnet and start making transactions in ETH and ERC20 tokens. You can then explore the Base ecosystem through the Bitget Wallet DApp browser, which supports various DApps, including DeFi, NFT, DEX, and various tools.
