It’s feeling really magical inside of Base right now. It’s clearly the greatest time in the history of tech industry right now. I hope it feels similar everywhere else.
relentless execution
Base builders ship hard
Here's 25 things the Base ecosystem launched and announced in September
1) @aave listed Coinbase Tokenized Stocks. Holders can deposit stocks on Base as collateral and borrow USDC against them on Aave V4
2) @modveon launched Sivar. Now Salvadorans can send money between the US and El Salvador at low cost, with instant transfers that settle in seconds on Base
3) @Cloudflare opened a closed beta of its Monetization Gateway. APIs on Cloudflare can charge agents per request, settled in USDC on Base
4) Coinbase partnered with @Citi to bring stablecoin acceptance to Base, letting institutions take stablecoin payments on regulated rails with automatic fiat settlement

8) @2factorfinance launched its public beta on Base. Long-term holders can hold moderate leverage indefinitely, first on Bitcoin and then on Coinbase Tokenized Stocks, at a fraction of what a leveraged ETF costs to carry
9) @avantprotocol launched Avant on Base, onchain infrastructure for productive capital. It starts by bringing that capital into @morpho lending markets
10) @alchemixfi launched Alchemix V3 on Base. Users can now deposit once and earn with no lock-up, borrow against that money with no interest while it keeps earning, or lock in a fixed return
11) @upshift_fi is live on Base with @clearstarlabs. Curators, fintechs, and asset managers can launch vaults, and depositors keep their own funds. The first vault lets XRP holders earn on cbXRP in @morpho lending markets

13) @clearstarlabs added cbZEC and cbHYPE to its cbAssets Vault on Base. Both markets are live in its largest vault on @morpho
14) @o1_exchange launched tax tokens on its launchpad on Base. Creators can set a buy and sell tax from 1% to 10% and route it to themselves, to holders as dividends paid in the paired asset, or to burns
15) @zothdotio expanded zPayments on Base, a stablecoin settlement platform for businesses. Businesses can pay out in local currency across 171 countries, at one stated rate, with instant settlement
16) @munifyai is now on Base. People can receive, hold, spend, and move dollars in one account with USDC on Base

24) @norafinancexyz launched $BRS on Base, the Brazilian real onchain, adding more distribution and more ways to plug it into other apps
25) @roqqupay introduced the Roqqu Go Card, a multi-currency card for spending crypto like cash, running USDC on Base
This. All of this.
One of the most slept-on, unpriced-in things is that the world's wealth--dollars, bonds, stocks, derivatives, you name it--is all getting transmuted into smart contracts on blockchains, in the biggest financial reboot since joint-stock companies.
This isn't memecoin bullshit or monkey JPEGs.
Your personal financial app's backend will be a blockchain; you'll earn yield or invest via assets that exist on a blockchain; the biggest institutions in the world will slosh around value on blockchains. It's likely to happen so fast that most people won't even notice.

I got into crypto because I believe it has the potential to be one of the most equalizing technologies in the world.
Progress isn’t a straight line.
The internet gave us information.
AI gives us reasoning.
Blockchains will give us fair access to global markets.
This part of the cycle is painful. But it doesn’t change the need for a global trading engine.

Awesome Q&A yesterday with @RepDanGoldman (NY-10th District) 🇺🇸
He voted for FIT21, and believes in striking the right balance of consumer protection while avoiding over-regulation that could stifle the growth of technology.
Remember to vote on Tuesday 🗳️
Every vote counts!
so much engineering sorcery went into making this possible.
excited to meet web3 developer needs in more places!
