@optimismFND @coinbase 1/ It's official.

@coinbase proposed and @BuildOnBase said yes🚀

Base is an Ethereum L2 that offers a secure, low-cost, developer-friendly way to build dapps. It is not a token & will use ETH as the native gas token.

@optimismFND @coinbase @BuildOnBase 2/ @BuildOnBase offers full EVM equivalence at a fraction of the cost & is committed to pushing forward the developer community.

⚡Powered by Coinbase
🔐Secured by $ETH.

Read the call notes🍿: 0xilluminati.com/p/illuminati-r…
@PendulumAlex 1/ Introduction @PendulumAlex:

- Alex got into crypto in 2013 while living in Berlin.

- There were many ‘nerd-centric’ BTC meetups, and he went to these to learn about Bitcoin.

- Alex read the BTC whitepaper and could see how crypto could disrupt the financial system.
@PendulumAlex 2/ Pendulum & Polkadot:

- Pendulum is a blockchain built on top of Polkadot.

- They chose Polkadot because of the interoperability that comes with the chain.

- Another reason is that they wanted to target businesses and Fintech, so they required trust.
