Join us for a virtual discussion with @base @BaseJessePollak !
This virtual fireside chat will feature Jesse Pollak, VP of Engineering at @coinbase and the creator of Base, Coinbase’s decentralized Ethereum Layer 2.
Jesse will discuss how Coinbase is advancing its on-chain strategy—from scaling blockchain infrastructure to enabling developers and users to build, transact, and interact directly on-chain.
Drawing on his experience leading Coinbase’s consumer-facing products and launching Base as a low-cost, builder-friendly network, the conversation will explore the role of Layer 2s in expanding mainstream access to crypto, the evolution of on-chain applications, and how major platforms like Coinbase are shaping the next phase of blockchain adoption.
