how to give an onchain gift in <60s on @base
/Base
give the gift of onchain for christmas

best UX for onchain gifting I've ever seen

who's having a based christmas?

also a quick PSA: me and the @base core team are taking a recharge through 1/6 — expect less posting and slower response times.

bringing the world onchain is a marathon, not a sprint, and I'm so proud of everything we accomplished this year. can't wait for next year.

2024 was a big year for @base

sharing my 5m EOY recap and a call to action for builders everywhere: 2025 is the year we bring the world onchain

build long term things,
with long term builders

with @frenpet, @cattown, @stokefire, @farcade, and others really starting to grow, it's essentially 2007 facebook platform era for gaming on @base.

only difference is that now builders are on an open platform that *wants* them to go viral and *can't* take it away.

the #1 thing that @solana has right now over @ethereum is people with money who are willing to deploy in a risk forward way at the edge and thereby push forward innovation.

this is how innovation happens — but it's often messy in a way that can turn folks off (eg it's "just speculation"). but the lack of this means less capital bandwidth for ideas and experiments to both get funding and to break through into virality via price. memes and the innovation downstream of them are a prime example of this.

if @ethereum wants to succeed, this needs to change — and we are seeing signs of it on @base, but it's still early and we need a lot more help.

so let this be a call to action: if you are someone who believes in Ethereum, holds significant amounts of ETH, and wants the economy to grow, now is the time to step up..

if this is you, please DM or shoot me an email at jesse@base.org. will be coming up with a plan in the new year.

🙏🏼

the @farcade is a peak into the future

viral game mechanics, runs across multiple platforms, super fun, only possible onchain

what are you most proud of building on @base this year?

share to participate in the biggest round ever, rewarding builders with 4 ETH to close out the year with a bang.

RFB: a @base discovery page that:

1. takes my twitter + farcaster feed and retweets
2. combines it with onchain data + AI descriptions
3. outputs a regularly updated feed / ranking / categorization of apps, tokens, NFTs I've curated

this would be an incredible "get started" on @base
if you're a long time Ethereum product or NFT or protocol looking to launch a token, we want to help you do it on @base.

based builders around the world are ready to lock in with you for the long term and help you go viral 🫡
every day, every conversation, it becomes more clear that 2025 is the year the world comes onchain

the builders are building, the apps are coming, and the energy vibrating between folks on @base is insane

feeling grateful to be here, now, with all of you

we are going to scale @base another 100x with reth

our core protocol team just wrote a deep dive into our progress thus far, the collaboration with @gakonst & team, and where we are heading in 2025 — worth a read!
